The akward larix
Height: 450 mm
Trunk width: 31 mm (just over the nebari)
Last years yamadori, it is still going strong. The top branches are very vigorous, but no backbudding on the trunk as for now. Pinching and pruning will keep them coming i hope. Dont know if backbudding is very usual on these species but there is something coming out of the trunk 10 - 12 places further down, so maybe. Anyway, next year I have two promising larch yamadoris ahead so I will give it until then. Come on Larch, backbud.
