Pinus sylvestris Nr. 1

First pictures spring 2012.
See the progress that can be made with a pine in only three years.
This is because the tree was given lots of organic fertilizer and the new shoots were cut back in the summer, not in spring!
The lower branch is quite weak, I will try to compensate by cutting more in the crown next year.
Or I cut off that branch and wire down another one.
