I am getting a large (8+ft) Ficus benjamina from a local person and am looking at chopping it back to make into something more bonsai like. It is currently around 8 feet tall and very leggy but has an interesting twisted trunk that I think would make a nice bonsai. My question is should I gradually prune it back to encourage lower growth or just chop and let it grow.
I will be repotting it when I get it as it has not been repotted in a long time from the sounds of it.
