styling advice plz
Ok so this is a mugo pine. So far all I have done to it was remove some weak branches an trim the needles on the trunk area. I didnt have to root trim it to fit it in the pot. This will be all I do for the next year( I have read that they can only handle 1 stressfull event a year. My question is....On the rear bottom of the tree is a branch.(you can see this in the second pic) Should I wire it next year and pull it to the left to balnce out the tree or remove it and postion the trunk to the left to balance the right. You can already see a nice curve in it that I can exaggerate. I think the odd branch would look ok pulled to the left but I think it maybe to low to the soil level. What is your advice?
