I got this tree last year and trunk chopped it to make a smaller bonsai because it seemed too tall for it's trunk size. My question is, I built these branches from nothing and this is my first tree to actually start from a bare trunk chop and kinda hesitant to chop off the back branch, but I think when the new Apex grows, the lower back branch will be too low. I can adjust the other back branch to be more in the back and work on building ramification on it. Just looking for ideas for the future of this tree. I took pics of the back branching so you can see what's going on with it. The 2nd pic is where I think the new front should be.
