Seedling
I've been eyeing this Coast Redwood at a local nursery for about 3 months now. I finally decided to purchase because they were having an Independence Day promotion at the nursery. My goal is to train this tree for bonsai. I'm not sure how old the tree is, but it's about 6 feet tall and the base trunk is about 2 inches. I live in Southern California about 3-4 miles from the ocean. We get a good amount of marine layer in the air every morning. There is not a lot of information out there for coast redwood bonsai. I'm looking for any advice or tips on how to get started. I know I'll eventually have to do a trunk chop and wiring down the branches before it lignifies. Thank you.
