Ok, I need to decide on first steps with my new ryusen from the "Best new maple" thread.
Buds are breaking but I still want to get it into a basket at least so I'll have to be careful and leave a lot of the rootball. Or I can just cut the pot down if you guys think it is too late.
@Cadillactaste thinks I should do nothing but wait for at least a year which is probably the right thing to do but I'm just so darn impatient! If I did wait, though, it would give me more time to contemplate whether to proceed with my plan above or wait to see if I like it as is. I don't know that I will, though. The more I look at that upright the more I don't like it. It does give it an unusual twist but also looks like a sucker gone wild.
Any other thoughts?
I still haven't decided but here's what I'm thinking...
It already has quite a bit of height with the main so maybe air layer at yellow and then eventually cut off at red. Trim the blues and allow it to sweep around and cascade down to the right.
OR, I leave the upright and have a monster of a tree. Grr. lol.
