Hermano y hermana Picea abies yamadori out of 2009

This is a yamadori out of 2009. It has been time in September now to style and cut back the vital growth and wire all branches. It is a station in between . My aim is to create a more lighter tree wich looks more mature than it looks now. Therefore I will style more negative space between the branches. For me the cutting back was a very hard way to go ... but it has to be done. The Picea is vital and I hope it will sprout back in next spring while more light will catch the branches ...


This was the tree after 3 years of free growing , vital with many new buds but to dense for a propper rebudding.


 I did the deadwood part by making jins ... this was the first approach ...but simply too dense

The top has been too spiky so I jined it to make the crown more even ...


In zhis shape it will go in winter and I hope next spring it will sproud and rebud enough to make more negativ spaces in future. I think it will more mature than ...

This is how it looks now ...

It starts to be a very nice tree! You'll probably have to cut more branches in the future the get rid of the heavy crown, but you are on a very good way. I like it ;-)

Hallo Lacike,
thanks for your comment. I fear about cutting back to much green in this period. Its a yamadori out of 2009, it grows vital but my anger is, that the tree breaks down if I reduce too much ... In the german Bonsai-fachforum they told the same like you ...My way is the secure one ;-) I know very well that the habitus of an old picea is more spacy ... the time will come ;-)
