Uchida tree

Post by Pup »

This tree was wired for me by Uchida Yusuke, when he stayed with us last September for a week. I checked the wire and did some weeding, took of the guy wires, the other wire look like they can stay till September, some might have to come off before then but we shall see.

Cheers Pup

This is a serious tree! Personally I think the heaviness of the lowest 2 or maybe 3 branches is detracting from the gentle movement in the trunk line. I'm sure there are different points of veiw...

Hi Pup,

Thanks for sharing this tree, it looks like a European take on the Japanese styled tree. Very more-ish. :cool: :cool: :beer: :beer:

Cheers,

Brad75.

This was my efforts at wiring in May of 2013.

I will look for more, but with new laptop and camera who knows.

Yes it was grown from nursery stock, from 1996.
