European beech, collected last year.
Have already removed dead branches and old leaves. Now I have to figure it out in which direction I want to go with this tree and start to style it.

That is an awesome tree. How tall is it?
Go slow, it has tons of potential down a myriad of paths.

I'm excited to see if the nebari are as good as the rest of the tree. It looks like you'll barely need to develop anything. There's plenty of branching to choose from as is.

On another note... Had your beech trees leafed out yet?
