Well-spaced branches
Here you can see that three main branches are spaced apart along one dominant trunk. The first main branch is on the lower left, the next one is on the right, and the third one is on the left about two-thirds up the photo. Each of these three main branches was cut back to slow their growth rate. This encourages the leader to dominate.
