Did a little end of year clean up. Needs a thorough pruning next year, espectially the apex. Need to decide on new leader and cut back harder. Top is getting chunky.

Look forward to seeing what you do with the apex. This tree is chunking up nicely!

Here it is now. Growing it back out. Needs a redesign/rethinking next year. I fully understand the original experts in the thread and should have headed their advice earlier but it looks like Ill be working on this one for years to come...

Coming along nice!
Out of curiosity, I’m wondering how you will be treating the crown of the tree.
Bringing a branch up on the sides? -blue
Or maybe just pruning the nub at top?

Let me bring it in and get a better look at it. Right now Ive not thought too much long term.
