Omono
I acquired this dwarf hemlock from a mom and pop nursery going out of business. The tree was growing unchecked in the ground for 25-30 years. It is 48 inches tall, soil to tree top.
Living in some debate as to chopping/leaving same height. It's taper is natural. Also leaving the flame shape but trying to narrow it over the years or moving all the branches like a normal conifer and making it even more narrow.
It obviously back buds profusely, but growing out new branches like a trident is unrealistic in my lifetime. I'm currently in process of getting the soil into a good bonsai mix.
