Pom-Pom,yeah well just a quick trim up.As far as putting some movement into the trunk...I could do the lower section over like 5 years but past my first branch yeah in a year with a jack I could put plenty in.I was thinking the trunk would be OK? shape wise then wire movement into each of the main branches and bring them down lower.Then put plenty of wiggle into the sub-branching making a wide informalbroom/oakform canopy and a finish height of around 10-12"?
Thanks.
