this one dropped two branches and i dont know why... it has been growing well past season.
but to be fair oné branch was looking like a bar branch and was placed inside a curve and the other was on the nomination to go anyway the tree apears lichter to me and i still have enough to work with.
tree is not been wired this winter and will be repotted soon.

Today i wired and styled this larch!
Im looking for a nice pot now, the roots are not great but after all these years in this terracotta pot its time for something more prety, im thinking of a round pot as i keep losong track on whats the front and if i want to slightly adjust the front a round pot would be easyer to do so by just turning it a bit.
The shari i want to extend around the trunk further down in the growing season.
maybe play with the planting angle a bit ?
Observation, the branches with the cones on were weakened allot the tree let one die off after it shed its needles the other one i pruned off it was thicker then lower branches and a split into three instead of two so less branches but so far i like where this is going.
note to self prune off the cones/flowers in the future.
Let me know what you think! Suggestions on what type of pot or anything else that comes to your mind is appreciated.

Nice! I like it

Seriously, that’s nicely done. As far as a pot for it, perhaps a rustic round or drum.

Looking great! I really like the apical Jin look.
I also agree with Dave about a drum pot or something rustic.

Thank you sir!Nice! I like it

Yes i am leaning towards rustic round more then a drum.
Thnx! yeah for me the story is something happend the main trunk died and the lowest branch took over thats why i end up with the new trunk going a bit behind the jin and a branch around it, to me felt more natural as the new leader will grow the same direction as the jin towards the light.

So i got a pot!
Its a drum pot japanese made the seller thinks it is a touyou but was not 100% sure it does have a stamp so i will have to do some research what it actualy is.
Its maybe a bit bigger then i originaly wanted but at least im sure it will fit and it will look much better then a terracotta flower pot.....
Buds are showing golden glow at the tips so soon it will start growing so when i have time i will repot this tree!
I did take it out of the current pot to see how the roots look like and to see how it will look in the pot ive played around with some different planting angles and am not sure yet how ill plant it took some pictures to show that.
If you see a preffered planting angle let me know and why !

Man, it's looking great!
I think the planting angle should be vertical because of that jin.
