Another case of missing updates. Since the last post, I cut back the duplication on the top, and wired out the branches. There’s a good selection, but it’s going to take a goodly while until they are of a thickness that matches the trunk.
This one is pretty apically dominant, so I’ll have to keep an eye on it to make sure the top doesn’t grow too much. Still optimistic about the future of this one, but it’s a ways off.
