Quercus - I need to advise
Posted: December 11th, 2010, 6:08 am
Hello! My name is Peter Svetoslavov. I am from Bulgaria. I write here for the first time and will ask you for advice and criticism for this Oak :
Hi Peter that is a very nice Oak.
I find the large branch going left near the top unbalances the design. I think you would be much better totally removing it and replacing with the little branch above it following the same line.
Then as it is wired at the moment I would bend the apex branches down some into something akin to a weeping form. Sounds weird but I have a magazine with pictures of a hawthorn that would be great as a an idea for this tree. I will endeavour to get a pic of it up for you.
