How can I prune my evergreen Bonsai Tree since I have been seeing additional growth and I do not want it to grow too big? |
Bonsai absolutely require regular trimming and training to maintain their shape and style. The specific technique for your tree would depend on what kind of plant has been used and on the style it has been trained into. You might wish to look at a book on pruning techniques for bonsai or perhaps you might contact the American Bonsai Society, c/o Patricia DeGroot, P.O. Box 1136, Puyallup, WA 98371-1136, (206) 841-8992; web site: http://www.absbonsai.org/ They have several publications available to help you learn to care for your bonsai. You might also find some helpful information through the Internet Bonsai Club http://users.nbn.net/~herrfam/... web site. I hope this helps. |
