Tree collected 4 years ago, last 2 years partially defoliated twice during the growing season.
Ramification increasing nicely due to that, but it is necessary also to let the sun into the crown, cause those inner branches die off quite fast if you let the outer ones grow freely.
This is indeed already quite controversial tree and landscape - since I published it after creation, when I was doing bonsai just 1 year, I am getting so many advices as to what to do with it, although my vision is clear from the start and the tree is getting exactly where I want it to be. Not that I do not listen to advices, thanx to Vlad I finally did cut the branch that was looking pretty straight in the pics and I was thinking of it, but never did before.
But if I obeyed all the advices I got so far, I would be left probably just with the roots.
One wouldn´t advice me to create at all, because I do not know the alphabeth yet and I am already writing a novel. Other people would remove the back trunk, another the tallest right one, and another would leave just the base and make it a shohin. Maroš would put it into a bonsai pot :)
Well lads, love it or hate it, this is Mimo´s creation and Mimo likes it as it is and where it goes :)
My bonsai diary. I will present you with what I did, spoiled, learned and have seen - that has something to do with bonsai. And to keep track of progress of my trees and penjing creations. Because I´m lovin´ it :) If you like what you see, you can check out my eshop www.bonsajovekrajinky.sk where some of my creations and yamadori trees are for sale.

Penjing with Carpinus number 1
Not much of a growth this year due to a repotting to this marble slab, however - it is looking better and better every year.
At next repotting I will tilt it to the left a bit.
And since I started to move the trees to their winter spots, and taking some pics with them, I couldn´t resist to include my new Ibanez guitar in one, as that is what will be keeping my nervous fingers busy while the trees will be sleeping :)
I also wanted to have a pic with the 2 types of art made of trees - bonsai and the other art made by Ibanez :)
