Cedrus Deodara Windswept

I bought this tree from a local garden center "Wyevale" just before last Christmas, and the first photo shows how it looked, and at first i did not know where to start.
So i took a step back for a few weeks, and eventualy decided which route i wanted to go.
Next spring it will be going into its first training pot to eventualy reduce the root ball down to manageable size.
For now the rootball has been reduced by about two thirds of its original size.
I have been slowly pinching out the top growth, which has paid dividends with the bottom growth flourishing.


Any comments would be welcome.


Best regards BD Paul
