Live from DC and I had some general stying and development questions concerning my Swamp Cypress.
This is my proposed front and I was looking for any advice on making it a flat top. I did the repot in early Spring, feeding and watering through the season. Are the bottom 2 branches too thick to use in the design? Also if I have to branch prune and regrow, should I cut off in late fall? Also wanted to do some carving to the top to add interest. I read that this should be done in the spring after growth has hardened off. Any and all advice is welcome.
