Blue honeysuckle part 2

The latin name of this species is Lonicera caerulea
Here is a close up of the trunk before the work began



New planted angle

Branches roghly wired. The new growth gets brittle very quickly so it's important to wire while it's still young. The branches will be cut back drastickly next year.


Close up of the trunk after dead wood work. The bark on this species comes off in long flakes and leaves a nice red/brown colour almost like a juniper. I like it.
