Tamarix branch small leaves, branches drooping, graceful, shaped like weeping willow; its torso such as iron, old and strange, with the quality of pine and cypress; blossom three times a year, the flowering period is longer, the pink flowers are full of branches, more enchanting; its roots, such as swimming dragon, wonderful shape, whether it is root, trunk, leaf or flower, it has incomparable advantages over other tree species, and it is a good tree species for bonsai production.

Tamarix in modeling pruning is generally seen in the form of weeping branches, but the difficulty lies in the production of weeping branches when doing natural modeling. Because Tamarix grows in nature, the new branches are most likely to grow upward. Branchlets and side branches are most likely to droop, so when making hanging branch bonsai modeling, the branches can not be allowed to grow freely, but the position, number, density, length, thickness, hierarchical change and overall outline of the drooping branches should be determined according to the requirements of the layout. If the methods of "early branch fixing", "shading treatment", "pulling branches" and "thinning side branches" can be correctly applied, good results can be obtained.
