Ribes nigrum update

Here is obne of the black currant bushes I collectd from my garden this summer. It has grown profusely this summer and it's time to start some work on it. There are many dead branch stumps on it. The deadwood seems to rot away almost instantly so it seems to be impossible to use deadwood in the design.




I took off all the dead branches and as much of the dead parts as I could and cut back and wired the branches. here is the result.

At the moment it looks like the tree has two tops, but I will remove one of them next summer, I will leave it as it is untill after repotting to see wich one is the best to keep.
