December 2023 – The tree after wiring and its recent styling with a change of front. A garden centre plant now looking more like an imported Japanese tree.

Sometimes it pays to just let your trees grow for a period. They not only become stronger and healthier but often provide you with a much better piece of raw material from which you can style a really good tree.
