My famous tree - full review, cleaning, editing and rewiring

This tree has not been redone with deep selective cutting and rewiring for a number of years. And it begs for some attention. Now, I will start finishing and refining this Ivy...last stage in his preparation for a life of a mature bonsai.

Already, this tree endured 18 years of training...numerous wirings and cuttings.

Picture 1, after repotting and free spring growth in its new pot...

First, total leaf  cutting necessary for detailed cleaning and redesigning crown structure ...

After removing of all the unwanted branches, simplifying lines, full editing and wiring...

VIDEO is coming soon...

Queen Fagus - In leaf again

My garden Queen in leaf again. Smaller leaves, twice the number of branches...that means double ramification for one year training.

Looking good. I am happy for now.

This will be a killer tree in three years time.
