How to trim the white wax bonsai in order to keep the appearance beautiful

Docking white wax bonsai is a work that has been deliberately processed by people. although it has been trimmed for a long time to maintain a perfect modeling effect, it still has not lost its vitality and can often continue to grow. On the contrary, if it is not pruned in time, with the continuous germination and growth of new branches, some branches will inevitably affect the original beautiful plant type, thus reducing or losing the ornamental value of bonsai works. It can be seen that scientific pruning is very important to maintain a beautiful ornamental effect on white wax bonsai. So, how to trim the white wax bonsai in order to keep the shape beautiful?

The pruning work is of great significance for keeping the graceful shape of the white wax bonsai, and the pruning work should be done in time. Mainly adopts the principle of "long branch, short branch, dense branch and sparse branch", through pruning treatment to keep the branches in an appropriate proportion, so that bonsai always maintain an excellent ornamental effect. As for the daily pruning after molding, we usually call it "conservation pruning", just like people usually have a haircut, in order to keep the hairstyle in perfect condition all the time.

First, pick the heart

Heart-picking is a means often used in the process of bonsai maintenance and management. for bonsai, it is mainly to control the growth and density of bonsai branches and promote the development balance and balanced extension of lateral branches. The main purpose of coring is to pinch off the tender shoots at the top of the bonsai branches, so as to disperse the growing points with obvious advantages, so that the lateral branches can grow in balance. If we usually do not need to fill the local position, we need to pick the heart in time. Another purpose of coring is to control the growth and keep the original plant type stable.

Second, erase buds

Through the usual coring treatment, the growing points on the bonsai branches are scattered everywhere, but at this time it will also cause another problem, that is, a large number of adventitious buds will sprout on the branches of white wax bonsai. If these adventitious buds are not erased, there will be many forks on the branches, which will inevitably destroy the original modeling effect, but also consume a lot of nutrients and water, thus weakening the tree potential. Therefore, once a large number of adventitious buds are sent out, we should erase them in time. This is very important to maintain the original beautiful plant type of bonsai.

Third, picking leaves

Picking leaves is a very necessary means in the daily maintenance and management of bonsai. Through scientific leaf picking, the original can promote bonsai trees to sprout new leaves many times a year, so as to keep bonsai fresh green as a whole. Improve the vitality and ornamental value of bonsai, and bring a kind of pleasing enjoyment to the viewer. Although it is said to be picking leaves, it is generally recommended that we use special scissors to cut off the leaves. If you pull out the leaves with your bare hands, it is easier to hurt the bark.

4. Pruning

Bonsai trees are easy to grow many new branches in the process of growth, especially after coring treatment, it is easier to sprout more lateral branches and twigs. In order to keep the plant shape beautiful, it is often necessary to take pruning measures to cut off the excess branches. However, the pruning process also needs to refer to the shape of the bonsai tree, according to the shape of the tree to decide. For example, the cloud flake shape effect, when pruning, it is appropriate to cut the branches into a flat shape. But at the same time, the plant may also grow dry and withered branches, parallel branches, overgrown branches, cross branches, over-dense branches and other forms of branches, which we also need to cut off.

Fifth, trim the root

For bonsai trees, root pruning is generally carried out in the process of turning the basin, mainly to cut off overgrown dense roots, old and weak fine roots, overlong roots, etc., so as to stimulate the tree to sprout new roots and improve the root absorption ability, so as to ensure that the trees can always maintain exuberant growth. However, root pruning also needs trees. For bonsai with underdeveloped roots, there is no need for a large number of root pruning, while for bonsai with dense and well-distributed roots, it is often necessary to strengthen root pruning to promote new roots.
