LOL,Judy...I like your honesty. And yes another nice pot...
I think the shrub like appearance is because it's a bit tall and gangly. I'd like to see it's directionality better defined.
My contorted because it's a little more north here in Seattle, has just one bloom open and rest showing white
color.
It's been awhile since i did an accurate count of my chojubai. Have two orange, 3 white and 9 red. Oranges in full bloom, whites just opening and some of the reds beginning to show color.
vast majority of all my quinces are kabudachi style (clumped) but I do have a few singular trunks, especially my chinese quince. My old timer chinese looks like it may have quite the blooms this year.
