backbudding

I'll start with this one. A $4 rescue from the clearance rack. I don't remember the cultivar, but the new growth gets a nice yellow color. It's been in the ground for about 3 years now. It's healthy and vigorous, and it seems to be ready for work. Is it worth trying? I planted it over a stone...

I am trying to style this tiger bark ficus. I want to bring the height down and promote back budding in the circled area. Where should I cut and what other advice can you offer to accomplish this goal?

Is this considered healthy amount of back budding and growth on my Japanese red pine? Is now when I’d go in and shoot select? I appreciate the help!

I was curious what the usual course of action is when you have a branch that only has a downward or upward growing branch. This is for a crepe myrtle, as I'm sure this might be handled based on species and how well they backbud. I know this is usually not ideal and these branches are removed...

Hi Bonsai Nuts! I got a pine from a friend some months ago and started to see some budding in the needles that were cut. It seems as if it does not grow by candles but by budding where the cut was made... so, now i don´t know if it is really a pine, or is it a different species of tree? Any help...

l've been combing this site and the internet in general for awhile seeking the answer to this question and am coming up short. I have several massive yews with foliage way out at the end of unattractive branches. I know you can cut them back and get budding on old wood, but WHEN do you do this...
