This thread is the progression of imported Itowgawa I bought from a friend who passed away (Paul Piptone) one of the good guys. I bought it from the first picture, because that's the way I have to buy all my trees. The second picture is after it lived with me throught the first year. The third picture is me and some hack, I'm the good looking one on the right. the styling took 8 hours. The last picture I took this morning. Spring is just around the corner here in Oklahoma, so the tree will need a haircut and a reppoting, if you will look at the roots in the second picture they are part of the nebari and the last picture the tree is pushing itself out of the pot. We are not through working on the Jin and Shari, so the tree should improve some this spring when Marco works on it some more. There are a number of reasons I like Marco and could right a page explaining them, but the main reason I like Marco working on my trees, he was trained by Kimura in the traditional Japanese style and that's what I prefer.
