mirror tree
i have started to bend the trunk up but am wondering what i should do with the top of the trunk. ( 1 ) ,also these branches have been cut off ( 2 ) in the photo you'll be able to see what im trying to do(hopefully)well im trying to get the trunk to stand in a informal sort of way but it is quite bendy so might take awhile.suggestions would be good.
Cheers Buzz. |

it looks bare but there are only branches on the right hand side there are two branches on the top of the left hand side but thats it there are a few little buds comming through so hopefully they will even it out i dont have a digital camera at the moment so cant post any more pics.at the top it has been cut to stop it from growing upwards so it goes to the left.

Unitl I can see what you have done it is hard to give you further advice. That's ok because we aren't going anywhere and you have plenty of time to get photos. The main concern I have is that you are going for a different style than we suggested. That is fine but we have to see what the tree looks like now to give you proper information. David |

Design
For me it is the tree that tells me what it wants to be and in this case it wants to be a cascade. I am not very good at vertuals but I will try to do one.

cascade
When you rotate this tree and look at it in a cascade shape container you can see that very little has to be done to gain the desired efect. The first branch is perfectly placed for the new crown and you have two choices for a desinding branch. with very little wiring and redirecting of branches you have a very nice tree. Here is my vert.
