Good day and thank you very much for taking time to review my question. I am very new to the hobby (yet to get my first tree/plant) and have a question about cutting a limb/branch for the purpose of shaping it.
My late grandmother has a Japanese Maple on her property that is over 12' tall and we think it is about 20+ years old. I would like to remove one of the more flexible branches, slice it along the long axis and make two halves or four quarters, and begin bending it so that I can make a Kengai style bonsai.
Will slicing into quarters kill off the branch?
Have a great day!
