Acer campestre bonsai re-wired
Styled as an image of a veteran tree, this is well into refinement. Never the less, I chose to rewire it extensively over the last year, I will not do so again for a long time. I'm hoping I can encourage finer ramification with careful pinching, controlled fertilisation, a longer re-potting frequency, and partial defoliation over the next few years. It would be substantially improved by a shallower, glazed pot. I will have to save up and commission one for next year.
This tree has been in development for 12 years now, you can see something of the first six years of the process here: http://silvanaturalis.blogspot.com/2014/04/field-maple-bonsai-6-years-in.html
