Hi Jeff,


No styling comments, but perhaps a dumb question; is the tree inside?

The tree now goes off in too many different directions. This would be the simplest solution, with a change of planting angle to make this a cascade or semi-cascade.

hi,

after a repot and root reduction like this do nothing for 6 months. then don't attempt wiring and severe bending while thew tree is actively growing - so spring to mid summer is rest time, then mid to late summer the trees stop growing so if you are desperate you can wire now, but the tree will have a 2nd growth period in early Autumn so that is another 6-8 week leave alone period. it is best to not wire and bend until winter really.

the obvious is a cascade but the bonsai could have been created a bit quicker and with less stress to the tree if you'd picked the style first, done the styling then just done one repot at the correct angle.

cheers
