Hey All,
I'm particularly asking Vance W. this one. But anyone may chime in. First let me digress.
In a few short weeks in will be spring, My college Hort teacher has given me the green light
to grub up a nyssa sylvatica that she no longer wants in the tree I.D. garden. The tree
has a 1-3" caliper, and is approx 7'ft tall. (I'm thinking a 5-10 gal. nursery tree). Its been there not more than 2 years.(In ground)
My question is I know to make this a believable bonsai, Ill need to reduce it, will it take well to a drastic chop. and will it back-bud well after wards?
Well?
Thanks for all your questions,
ps The only reason she's wants it removed is because its getting (get this) windswept where it is located.
Thanks again,
Sincerely,
K Johnson
