Another yew

Looking good! my Yews always die out on me, even that one that I styled a few months ago is all brown now. I might be trying to put too many bends in. I see a lot of people just putting only one downward or horizontal bend in and leaving it. might have to follow suite.

Must be the balcony, but seriously I am surprised considering the abuse I am giving some of mine. They survive extreme cutbacks and repotting even break my tools.

@leatherback nice tree I would push back some more on the left.
 
Not sure what this means :(

Was thinking that it might look better with less length in the branches on the left side (sorry too many Mirai videos).

The distance from the most left branch tip to the centre of the trunk is rather close to the distance from centre trunk to the most right branch tip,
 
Well.. My spring did not go as planned and I have ignored this one.
Today I started a putback and cleanup Not done yet. I hope next year the bones are set and I can just develop pads by pruning. Unfortunately it is a baccata so it is not easily convinced to make rosette-style branches. All flat as can be.

Finished the job today. Sorry, no backdrop as I am already too much of a burden to my wife who lugs everything around for me.
