This seems to be printing bullet points depending on the depth of the node - all bullet points seems to be shaded-square and only the first two depth are shaded and unshaded circles respectively.

You can use custom style and use shaded-square bullet and do an if-else to replace the bullet points of the first two depth.

Below is the sample code that I tried

from bigtree import list_to_tree, yield_tree

# Construct tree
path_list = [
    "root/1/1.1/1.1.1/1.1.1.1",
    "root/1/1.2/1.2.1",
    "root/2/2.1",
    "root/3",
    "root/4",
]
root = list_to_tree(path_list)

# Print tree
for branch, stem, node in yield_tree(root, style="custom", custom_style=("    ", "  \u25AA ", "  \u25AA ")):
    if node.depth == 2:
        stem = stem.replace("\u25AA", "\u2022")
    elif node.depth == 3:
        stem = stem.replace("\u25AA", "\u25E6")
    print(f"{branch}{stem}{node.node_name}")

This results in the output
