Been working with this tree for over a year. In the next month or so, I plan to repot into an anderson tray and start working on the roots. Would like to hear thoughts on where to go from here as far as styling?

I live in southern california and it's the beginning of summer over here. Would it be too late to start a JM air layering project?

Just dumb luck, but I am always left with curvy branches exiting the trunk that make good candidates for a new leader. Here is an example. Is there anything to do to take the curve out? Or does this fix itself after the chop and the leader grows? I'm sure I'm not the only one dealing with...

I started with four saplings roughly the same size and growth form. After two years of growing them out, here are the results. Two were potted in Smart Pots (fabric) and the other two were planted in standard nursery pots. The trunk sizes seem to have grown at the same rate. Judging...

I would like some clarification on the Broom Style because this is my first plant that I am attempting this style. The plant in question is a twisted pomegranate which I have been growing from a cutting for over six years. After cutting some of the main branches, it looks natural for me to go...

I did some work to one of my JBPs today and wanted your opinions on a front. The pink ribbon branch is what I have chosen as my new apex. With that said I have not decided on a front, although I'm leaning toward the first photo. let me know what you guys think. Possible front? Here...

Was wondering what you guys thought about this scar.... depending on where you view the plant, the scar is looking like a reverse taper. Front view, it's not noticeable at all. Is there a method or way to remedy the problem? Thanks in advance.

Hi all, My account was approved last week and I wanted to say hello to everyone. I have been doing bonsai for a little over 5 years but like all of us, i have so much more to learn. I hope to learn from all of you. Happy growing!

I would like to have some feedback on a trunk cut I did a little over 6 months ago. My questions is about the new leader that I had wired up. I might be worrying a little too much, but the bend of the leader seems awkward. Is there a way to fix it so it has no bend at all and just grows...
