You are spot on with all your comments Bodhi.
I worked on the group most of the day yesterday and have removed a bucket full of branches. I wired 2 trees and will hopefully finish the whole group today. The trees were full of creepy crawlies including lots of case moth lavae, there was even millipedes in some of the branches.One of the trunks is wire scarred which is a real shame.
Pics to come soon

I have done enough work on this group for a while, now I will let it recover and hopefully grow a bit to fill in the foliage pads.

It looks great Craig even though hard to see with that back ground how ever on the other hand it looks beautiful up there .

Well done Craig, it looks Soooooo much better. Next repot it will improve yet again.

Hi Craig, how is your cedar group going?
I would love to see a recent pic if possible.
Cheers, Dario.

Hi Dario sorry about the delayed response.I have been waiting for the cedars to bud back after a summer prune.
There has been no styling work done recently but I have pruned and pulled the needles hanging under the branches. Now I am thinning the clusters of new buds back to 2 and pinching the strong shoots.

Thanks very much for updating the thread Craig
This is a lovely group, thank you for the recent photo.
There is a definite improvement from the last pic and I will enjoy watching this over the next few years.
Cheers, Dario.
