Hi everybody. This is my first post although I have been following the site for several months. Great site by the way!
On to business. Here is a multi-trunk boxwood I acquired this winter. He had been in a nursery pot for quite some time so he has been root-pruned pretty agressively and potted in a growing box. I completed an intitial styling the other day and Im concerned about two things with this tree, the lower left branch (which I didnt style, I just wired out of the way) and the cut trunk in the middle of the tree (whic was cut when I got the tree).
Im tempted to remove the rear branch completely but I though I would ask the experts. It actually starts about 2 inches from the base of the tree although the pics dont show it well. I could wire it and try to create something similar to the other side or I could just remove it.
The "jin" if we can even call it that, is a sore spot and Im tempted to cut it off completely. Thoughts?
Thanks for any feedback!
