Lonicera Nitida

This came from someone's front garden. Apparently it has had bonfires set on top of it, been hacked down to a stump, and had numerous other lesser known bonsai training techniques applied to it involving strimmers and machetes. Then it was dug up and eventually ended up in my hands.

It was obviously too tall, and the second skinny trunk was surplus to artistic requirements, although it did carry a good portion of the foliage.
