Fagus Sylvatica Tree

[BobbyLane]

The lovely spring leaves are out now!

Inspired by one of @leatherback s videos on Beech pruning,
Ive been removing the growing tip on each branch, to encourage buds further back to open. Ive left 2 to 3 leaves where ive done this...

I didn't notice it before, but this Beech has some prominent Copper colour...


The remaining leaves after pruning out the growing tips, are larger now...

Someone asked if id make reductions in the crown.
Ive just took out a section of the right trunk. Which to the eye, stops it from moving right and pushes it up. I like the change...

I also tightened the ziptie slightly, to bring the two trunks closer togther. In a bid to create more harmony
