Shamino
Yamadori
While I've repotted frequently, I haven't dealt with potting nursery stock in years. I recently saw on a commercial bonsai site not to prune, wire, and pot at the same time. I am planning on doing a couple of nursery Shimpaku with my new-be neighbors and was planning on styling (trimming and wiring) and potting in training pot with bonsai soil all at the same time. Is this not a proper procedure?
