402: Spring Deciduous Pruning & Pinching

Spring is the ideal time to prune and tip deciduous bonsai, shaping their growth for the season ahead. Pruning removes unwanted branches, refines structure, and enhances ramification, while tipping encourages finer branching and balanced energy distribution. This technique ensures healthy, vigorous growth, promoting denser foliage and a refined silhouette. With careful timing and precision, spring pruning sets the foundation for a lush and beautifully structured bonsai.
