Lovely tree. I like the color of trunk bark also. Very pretty.

I noticed you were wanting to thicken the tree and create taper along the trunk. Would an Anderson flat or grow box with a tile and organic soil and fert accomplish this? Would that be going from refinement back to development?

As usual, it's the first one to bud out. If they forecast some frost, I'll bring it in tha garage :

'Orange dream' has leafed out (the one I keep as a "patio tree"), but the one in a bonsai pot hasn't. One of my "Little Princess" = 'Mapi-no-machi hime' is showing a few leaves too. 19°C and very sunny last Friday, back to normal today : 4 to 11, and fog this morning. The droplets enhance the cobweb on my 'Sango kaku' :
