Juniper Shimpaku Kishu - A simple progression

Hahahahahahaha!
:silly:

Sloppy job, isn't it?
To be honest, the wires are holding the dead branches before they lignify. Yes, a poor excuse, but once they get the job done the wires go down for a whole season. I expect cutting off the wires in 3 to 4 months.
Sorry, I wonder how hurried I was at the time. Shame on me, @Leatherback!

It was not a stab at the wiring done, but more a looking forward to the work that is still to be done.

I try to remember but I do not think a dead branch lignifies, as this is a process of the living. Not sure what you would call it though!

AS SOON AS I HAD PUBLISHED IT I KNEW THIS WAS COMING!!
:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

You are absolutely right.
Harden off.
Dry out.
Stiff as a corpse.
Call it whatever, but not lignify, Mr. Clicio!
