How to Maintenance Branches Mini Bonsai 







 to develop properly and keep their shape, it’s necessary to trim off sections from overgrown branches. This is known as pruning. 



Keep the desired shape in mind as you neaten branches




 One of the purposes of pruning is to keep the tree growing healthily. Trimming off extraneous branches or branches that have got too big and placing the plant in a spot that gets plenty of sun and fresh air makes it easy for the tree to develop and prevents infestations and damage by pest insects. Another reason to prune is to maintain the overall form and size of the tree. Keep in mind the shape to be maintained and neaten the form by removing protruding branches. Pruning also encourages blossoming and fruiting, so it is an important task. The best time to prune depends on the type of tree, but in general, just before spring when new buds are forming is a good time to prune small trees, while pinales should be pruned in the period from late fall to early spring and flowering trees should be pruned after blossoming. Further, pruning should be guided by the growth of the tree, so trim branches off if they are getting too long. Branches that need to be removed because they are negatively affecting the aesthetics of the tree are called imi-eda, or faulty/dreadful branches. Imi-eda include: Backwards branches Trim off these branches Branches that are growing the opposite way from the rest of the tree. Tangled branches Branches that are getting tangled up in other branches. Spindly branches Branches that are protruding from the overall form and are growing more vigorously than other branches. Parallel branches Multiple branches that are growing in the same direction. Radiating branches Several branches radiating out from the same spot.

 2. Leaving individual branches that you wish to grow, use pruning scissors to trim off other branches at their bases.

Daily maintenance keeps a tree robust for formation of lower buds In order to achieve blossoms, it’s necessary to understand how each tree forms flower buds 


to allow for flower differentiation, the process by which flowers are formed. For flower differentiation to occur, the tree must have sufficient stores of strength from plenty of sunlight and fertilizer, so first of all, ensure regular maintenance. Many trees form flower buds in summer, so make sure not to cut branches after early summer. Any branches that grow after early summer will not form flower buds.


 Further, trees draw nutrients from their leaves in order to form flower buds, so make sure they are free of insect damage. To ensure flowering the following year also, remove the flower husks before fruit has formed. Blossoming uses up a lot of the tree’s strength, so make sure to fertilize and water thoroughly after the tree has finished flowering.

 Keep water off lowers to achieve fruit In order for a tree to achieve fruit it must first bud and flower. As per achieving blossoms, it is important first of all to ensure the tree’s overall health through regular care and maintenance. To achieve fruit, water the tree at the roots, since watering the flowers can hinder pollination. How fruit develops depends on the type of tree. Some trees have flowers with stamens and pistils inside the same flower which pollinate after blossoming and then form fruit (such as crab apples), while on other trees such as the Japanese spindle tree, flowers with stamens and flowers with pistils blossom on separate trees so both trees are needed for pollination to occur. Once a tree has fruited and you have admired it for a while, remove the fruit as soon as possible to lessen the burden on the tree.
