i know i said it was not safe to work the tree..... but i did it anyway
i like the outcome but i cant seem to get it on the pic the way you see it when its standing in front of you
the big branch wich is covered is an extra solar panel to keep it healthy and backup plan to make a windswept tree if i ffed up lol

If you kept it strongly guyed, it might not have affected the roots - you/we will see.

Yah, I have that problem with my trees too. I've come to realize that pix help me to notice things that I don't see when I am with the tree. My experience is that the pic doesn't lie - if it looks good in the pic, it is good (or even better) in person, but not vice versa. So, I don't believe my lying eyes (lol) ;).

Good thinking. It is a good habit to have a plan B, IMHO.


Now, I think it needs a good season of growing in full sun = heed @my nellie's advice.
