Bonsai Transformation Black pine Don't be scared to cut off branches to make better bonsai

Autumn is a great time to work on Japanese black pine. Needle pluck, bud select, wire, cut branches and full styling can happen. Don't be scared to remove branches, even large ones, to make your bonsai better. Here I remove two main branches to achieve a much better future bonsai.

As Mr Chan would say David “you’ve got to be prepared to cut”! That’s what I say out loud to help the anxiety. But I think all should agree that branch was better gone. Thanks for the Melbourne relevant content!! You are a lifesaver 😊

Thanks, too, watching Mr Chan and David. I've become much braver in cutting off branches that aren't working on my black pine .

Nice tree looks good thanks DAVID

Difficult choice and I would have been very nervous cutting this much but very well done! Congratulations

Went from being a small shrub to looking like a 100 yr old tree , fortune favors the brave as they say.
