i recently asked a lady for her bougie but she hasnt asked her agent instead she told me if i wanted the peach tree i can have it so AFTER digging away i realised it had been trunk chopped long ago and the roots was alot larger than i expected after 2 hrs or sweat and blisters since my friend didnt help at all

Greetings,
You will need to carve early and bend branches before they get too big. The branches are very brittle. They shoot from old wood and my big salvaged peach was, and probably still is, full of ants. The leaves respond to the "two thirds" cut and reduce nicely.
They look best as a clasic style in full flower. Good luck,
Bonsai Bruce.
PS Don't forget Bimer Christmas party this Saturday.
