Nice tree, traveller! Glad to see you here, frolicking ‘mongst the Woody Dwarves... don’t be shy... there us a persistent “weird” that exists here, in the Tiny Forest.
I like your thought of approaching this as a “fairytale” design right out of the gate.. “know thyself”..
I, personally, LOVE a well-executed “faerytale design” (y’see what I did there
) and believe you may have acquired a decent piece of material to do so... this season will definitely answer that pondering.
That being said, you’d definitely want to make a decision now.. because after bud-break, your gonna want ALL the leaves you can handle.. fill that pot with roots!
Can we see more angles?.. like back, right, “two hops this time“... all that good stuff.
Pleasure to make your acquaintance.
