This tree was originally growing upright like an ordinary unmolested White Cypress with no branches until 8 inches up the trunk, it was bent over until the trunk snapped and again until a nice windswept angle was achieved. Most of the upper tree was cut. This is my first time using this species and my first windswept styling. I know it's a brutal, rushed job but I found out about the competition too late to have a real entry and I just wanted to participate
