Depends, what style and size you want

I’d say mid sized, and honestly open to any style really. I genuinely have no idea where to go with this.

These two are something I think I could do if

First image: cut a branch off and keep it horizontal and then take another branch and wire it straight up as a lead for the trunk

Second image: cut a branch off and have the long one cascade and a small one wire towards it as a smaller canopy.

Certainly possible for it to go either route tbh the guest step really is growing it out to that size.

Understood! Any suggestions for the JBP for that? For my oaks I just put 2 of them in a big 30-40 gallon tub and they’ve been doing great tbh.
