Beech Group no. 1

Ok I shifted it around last night.. no buds moving no other roots taken off… only did it originally Monday. Went off a template in a Bonsai Salkei book I own of arrangement in rectangular pot.

The one small tree On right never took off but it’s regrown buds to set up for next year .. I gotta drive buds down on branches to eventually reduce heigh but also let them grow into the pot more

I took out two trees and didn’t like , and one of them still has some damage from white aphids went Jean-Claude Van Damm on them with horticultural oil , and did some partial defoliation

I’m gonna reposition the trees closer together repositioning the trees now that I know more about forests . and repot this group with larger soil it’s in super fine shohin soil but I think it’s too inhibiting growth I’dike
To see
