A couple of years, and constant detailed pruning has improved the foliage. I have further reduced the number of branches and have wired some twigs. I have primarily removed illogical branches that grew inside the group and under other branches. In those positions, a branch in reality would not survive due to lack of sufficient light. With the help of guy wires, I have further inclined the trees on the left side to improve the rhythm of the group.
