How to trim the stereotyped bonsai

The charm of plant bonsai is self-evident, and it is precisely because of its high artistic appreciation value that it can be favored by the majority of bonsai friends at home and abroad. In order to create a basin of masterpiece, it takes a lot of effort in modeling. Among the modeling techniques of bonsai plants, pruning is the most commonly used. But the pruning of bonsai depends on the growth characteristics and growth of plants. So, how to trim the bonsai used for styling? The following editor talks about his own experiences and opinions according to his personal experience.

The principle of bonsai pruning is to keep the strong branches that are good for modeling and cut off the sick and weak branches. The following are several common pruning methods, which I would like to share with you. I hope they will be helpful to you.

1. Scissors and sparse shears

Take the tree stump bonsai as an example, after the stump transplanted into the pot survives, we can shape it. However, the shaping of bonsai mainly needs to be done through pruning. For extraction and cutting, we first have to cut off those redundant branches and leaves on the stump that are not useful for bonsai modeling, so that they can better get light, improve light transmittance and improve ventilation after pruning. After pruning those excess branches, nutrients can be more concentrated and transported to other remaining branches, so that nutrients can be absorbed more fully, and the growth time of plant formation can be shortened.

2. Control branches

When the stump is basically formed, we can control the branches of the potted plant. Why is it called a potted plant here? Since we have not yet created a beautiful shape for it, and there is not much artistic effect and ornamental value, it may be more accurate for me to use the word "pot" here.

As we have pruned those branches that are not conducive to modeling, nutrients will naturally be more concentrated and transported to the remaining branches, and some branches are bound to grow too fast and too fast. In order to maintain the balance of the overall shape, we need to cut off a large number of branches or sprouting lateral branches. In this way, in the process of shaping the plant, we can not only get sufficient nourishment for those weak branches that are conducive to modeling, but also receive more light, which makes it more conducive to the shape of the whole plant.

3. Pruning with leaves

When we prune the branches, we must cut off the small branches and leaves together, but if there are some places where there are no leaves, how can we prune them? Is there no need for pruning? In fact, even if there are no leaves, we still need proper pruning. But at this time, we need to prune along the branches to the place where there are leaves, but not too much.

Why do we have to take leaf pruning? Leaf pruning is a preventive measure against the phenomenon of withered branches and leaves caused by shearing incision atrophy. The main purpose is to ensure that our pruning can be carried out smoothly, and in addition to bring convenience to the modeling of the plant, it can not affect the normal growth of the production.

Having said so much, it is time to sum up. In fact, the beauty created by pruning can make the whole plant look more natural. According to the individual's different understanding of bonsai art and appreciation value, the shape will be very different, and each has its own characteristics. Therefore, in the process of pruning, we can do it according to our personal preferences, according to our own creative ideas, and not according to a certain pattern, because bonsai is a kind of art and an embodiment of beauty. as long as the work you trim has high artistic embodiment and appreciation value, can be accepted and loved by most people, that is a good work.
