How interesting. Using the piece of paper really helped to 'see' the shape the tree wanted to be. A great exercise, only seen this tree as a garden specimen in photographs, not grown much in Australia.Thanks men.

What a master! I think there are a lot of us who grow one bonsai and are reluctant to prune our plants. It looks so severe to cut those branches but in the end it improves the plant tremendously.

A.) The willow, from certain angles, resembles a root on rock. It is made amazingly different by simply wiring. Also, once again, you prove me right when I say Peter could create a master class bonsai from a broken broom handle. B.) You are an extremely lucky man, Chris, to have Peter as a personal friend. I am jealous. As far as your tree... wowzers...! Great presentation, as always! Cheers, Dick from Vancouver.

I liked what you done. I've thought if he still hated that root sticking a bit out, maybe the next repotting can tilt it a bit more. That or he could put a sphagnum moss ball at the base and get some roots to flare out for a better nebari. So many possibilities he could do with this.

Hi Peter. Nice work. Good choices Of leaving the root. I was thinking if the nebari could be improved by burying the tree a bit deeper to lessen the gap in the root structure and possibly stimulate additional roots would work. Keep up these great videos. It helped many of 7s to get thru this pandemic a bit easier. Karl

I was thinking, on next re-pot, tilt the tree more to the right to make the root base look more balanced. Accentuating the curves of the trunk and not making the large root stand out so much. In time the gap under the large root will close. If the root system can absorb it, remove more of it so it can sit shallower, further reducing how high the tree is potted. Great choice not cutting the root. Pruning alone really made so much difference in shape and balance.

The trunk looks nicely until halfway, tapering fine & good movement. Halfway up the trunk a huge out of proportion new leader. I'd cut it off cpmpletely. 14:04 shows it, although in that proposal the straight part is also cuy off. I would use the straight part to grow as the new leader.

Haha! I was really hoping they would go with the lowest cut as well! That tree has such a beautiful trunk; removing the top portion would better highlight it and make the overall piece more proportional. But I knew that if he struggled with pruning, he wasn't going to go for a hard chop, haha!

Yeah, I was really hoping they would go that direction. There is a really exceptional tree in there, if they were to remove all of the distractions. It's a great tree regardless, but the hard cut would really make the difference.
