My first shohin

This tree is my first shohin, its a euronomous from nursery stock aand its ~6-8 yrs old. this is it after 2 years of work and now i plan to work on the foliage by condensing it and then after practice i want to try to reduce the leaf size.

I like it. I think the branches need to be more refined but its hard to tell from the pic. Once you refine the branches, move it to a smaller pot that will be more suited for the tree. I know you only have it in that pot for growth purposes. I am not familiar with this specis so I cant say much else.

yeah my plan is to condense the branches and defoliate it over the next few yrs. after i move and build the new greenhouse and install water systems i could get it into a smaller pot right now that once is too small becasue watering is an issuse.

thanks for your reply
