They were discovered in the 50's- were in style for a long time and then have disappeared. I have seen some nice older trees that have more dense branching, but they are few and far between. They are apparently an acquired (literally.....) taste. I think you and Don have lovely ones, they just don't do it for me, though I do appreciate the work and their appearance.

John, you are truly a gentleman in every respect. Your only fault is your lack of taste applied to Kotobuki.

For those not initiated - what is Kotobuki in layman's terms?
