This tree is ready for another round of training for this season. It has a lot of young shoots after pruning more than one month ago!

I used soft breaking technique to bend them down. With this technique, you can either use 2 hands when the shoot is big enough or one hand. In this picture, I used one hand technique with the index finger placed at the inferior aspect of the shoot next to the old branch ; the thumb and middle fingers to hold the shoot distally

Then the A will bring downward and B upward

Final result. Sometimes it can be partly broken but it doesn’t bother me at all

All the straight up shoots were bent down in less than one minute!

It is my way to care for my bonsai. I took the pictures of them at least once a year to document their growth and to reassure my training technique on them.

These pomegranates are the biggest ones in the group of pomegranate in my collection up to this time. They were taken the pictures this afternoon.

I like this one very much because its extensive deadwood with one live vein!
