For now it seems to be a bunjin with far to much folliage or a moyogi with no exitement at all.

Just my thoughts.






I don't think Dave would be able to live long enough to see a hinoki build up like you think Weej, also bunjin does not need or worry with taper. This is a great tree and is making an impressive bunjin.
