Been lurking for a while but would like to get some input on what to do with this pronana juniper I recently got a nursery. I am only a year into bonsai and I am hoping to use this tree as a good practice tree. I have thinned it out, but other than that, I have not made any drastic changes yet.
So the main general question is:
How do I handle the 3 large branches?
1st option would be to choose a better tree. Agreed. Past that now
2nd option would be remove the top curved branched. Unfortunately this branch has the most growth, so removing it would be a bit brave this late in spring. I fell I could manipulate the other two branches to be usable.
3rd option would be to leave the major curved branch, Jin out the other large branches and guide it to a semi cascade. (not a fan of full cascades)
Any other options I am missing? Obviously it is going to come down to a matter of personal taste, just would like to see how others would handle it.
Thanks for any feedback
