Plan
Study the tree, plan a year out if show ready as fully defoliated.
Select branches for the desired design.
Once branches are in place, then ramification techniques.
Deciduous—branches can be regrown over time.
If repotting in Spring—select a short pot, but wide for the slender trunk and its height.
