the transformation from pic 2 to 3 is great.

I did have one question - on the final product pic, there is a branch wired up behind the tip of the shari - will you grow that out past the top of the main trunk as the new leader or is it just something I can't see from the pic - seems like I'm seeing it from a weird angle or something? what's your plan there?

Just wondering - there are many of these available where I am right now b/c of christmas. Maybe I'll pick a few up and make a forest. Thanks for the inspiration. Especially, given that most people in my parts say that these make 'bad bonsai'. They always seemed made for it.
