Hi all,
This pine below, I am planing on collecting next spring and making a cascade out of it. The trunk is very garnaled and old. I have removed some of the branching that I won't be needing, I am planing on givening it some deadwood features with some nice flowing branch... take alook..

Nice tree. I think you might be premature with your decision on styling before you have collected the tree. You really need to see what the specimen has to offer both above and below the ground; the trunk line, nebari, deadwood, etc.. Hopefully, you will be able to collect it, pot it up, and study its potential for several years as it recovers. At that point, I hope you would be able to make more realistic decisions as to its future. Anyway, I like the tree. Good luck.

Dave

Nice find! I have to agree with Dav4. Don't do anything irreversible until you have had the tree in a training pot for some time. Get to know the tree. It may show possibilities you had not considered later on!
