Prune · Removed major top branches to make the tree less of a cylindrical shaped profile.

Study GroupConsulted with Joyce Tsuji and Lake Sammamish Bonsai Study Group (PSBA)

It was super nice to have consultation with others when making such a major choice on a relatively mature tree. The profile is so much better now. On to ramification. Some wiring temporarily to close the gap in the canopy.
