It sure does look good. Some thread grafts will put limbs right where you want them, when you know where that is!

Regards,

Matt

Mucho primo find! Like Matt said, a little graft here and there will fill it out nicely. A hard pruning will probably induce more than enough buds for you to work with next year, or this year for you guys down under.

What does one have to pay for nebari like that on the big continent?
