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.
@luvinthemountains
Heres an update im back!
Last year it flowered now i got cones and some seeds.
2023 repotted and gave it time to recover.
This year some pruning here and there
Picture from today in the winter it will get wired
Its doing good had plenty of growth this year!
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.
