4th September 2010. These photos of the front of the tree show before and after it was trimmed. The long shoots have been trimmed back many times during the summer months. It would seem that it would have been better to keep the top part of the tree trimmed back further so that the lower branches would have put on more growth. This will be tried next year.

The photo on the right shows the tree after the media had been removed, roots trimmed, and washed.
