Build A Bonsai- Basic Broom Style.

When first starting bonsai there were a whole heap of things I could not fathom how to accomplish.
One of which was how to increase the number of branches/back budding of new shoots. Another was how actually to trim/grow a tree with Bonsai intension.
Getting good ramification is easily achieved whilst growing a plant, much easier than trying to force it down the track.

Here's a rudimentary image I created hoping to illustrate this. I know it is only basic and probably mis-leading, yet makes a lil' sense to me. When first starting out I had no idea, I wish someone had made an image like this, as I would have got it a whole heap faster.


Thanks for looking. :)

I know your thinking I have too much time on my hands, but thought it worth it for those new to the sport.
