Hi Gerard, lucky owners who had this guy work on their trees. They all looked really good would love to see them in 12 months when the foliage has settled into the new style. The White pine is a great transformation I looked closely at this tree and on the surface it appearedto be great but if you looked into the tree there was lots of problems, looks like Hiro really sorted it out.
Thanks for going to the trouble of posting these pics

Bsv have been bringing out Japanese masters for a long time which is the one of the biggest reasons their trees are of such a high quality. I hope they continue this practice long into the future. A big thanks to all those responsible.
