Buxus Mycrophylla var. japonicaGreat material, love Buxus. Is this 'Faulkner' ? I've a younger plant with similar foliage and bark in some areas, never gotten an ID on it.

To my eyes, this isn’t a bar branch, and even if it was, its not going to be causing any problems for a while. Leave it, keep your options open.This evening I was looking at this little hemlock wondering if I should remove the bar branch on the right, midway up the tree, possibly leave a jin. That would leave only 6 branches. Or maybe just thin it a bit.
Is it the right thing to do?
I love the glaze on the 4th and 5th onesPicked up my glazed pots and glazed a couple more. Waiting for new studio grand opening.

I like how you dropped the lower left branch...I cleaned up and put a little wire on this hinoki.

I have a Gafu-ten book and some of the tree name translations I've been getting from using Google translate have taken some deeper research to figure out. I will have to check my notes later to show some examples. Off the top of my head I remember what we call princess persimmon they call old man persimmon. And shimpaku was translating to emperor's maple.Rainy today, so just doing some research and Gafu-ten book study. Hopefully I'll have a new resource to share on here before too long.
But wait, I'm not so sure about that translation...
