We have a small orange tree in a silly place and needs to be removed. It has benn hacked at by previous owner but i can see some shape in it and it has some prominent branches, so the idea is to transplant it into a 30 ltr pot and start the training process. Any advice on doing this would be appreciated

Most Citrus will take to bonsai techniques but many are large leaves that do not like to reduce much, and the large fruit is an issue for small trees.
Larger trees or citrus with smaller fruit work best.
