Hi!.
It looks great with those branches pointing downwards.

Sorry for the off-topic, but: Does the tree I point to in this clipping have an open thread in the forum?

What a beast!

 

[Paradox]

Damn!
BC are tough...that thing had hardly any roots

 

[Cajunrider]

Franco had a hard cut back. Every branch was cut back to where I wanted ramification. He responded by pushing buds.

 

[Cajunrider]

Franco want to paratrooper training and some paracord got stuck on the branches, pulling them down.

 

[Cajunrider]

Franco got a little bit of surface root pruning. A crossing top root was removed. I am pleased that the roots underneath look much better.
