Many of the trees that I have been working on over the winter are now putting out new growth and I wanted to give you an update on the way they look now.

Of all my trees the one I am enjoying most is this crepe mrytle.  The crown of the tree from the new top I developed is looking great.  I just need a mid branch on the left side and this tree is ready to go.  However the pads looking a bit flat so this year I plan to work on the taper and overall thickness of the branches themselves.  This tree won’t be this bare  when it is completed,  Right now I am just building the skeleton structure, but it will be this year that this tree becomes a finished bonsai.
