LoL!
like your hairs or beard s keep on growing but by the cut you can make
different effects & channel the plant energy where you want to or needed ..
cutting/clipping is something that has to be done according the species and
season's and the tchnique varies according the aim
clipping a maple or a zelkova is diferent than clipping flowering plant or a
pine

I have been reading Bonsai Masterclass by Peter Chan, and he discussed the
clip and grow method, a pruning method of achieving an attractive shape for
bonsai. I am sure it is a very common method, you may know of it as being
called something else. I am confused about how it works. He says, you let
the plant grow, and then cut new growth back each year. What exactly does
this do? I am confused mainly because I don't know how the tree reacts to
it. Thanks alot. - Colin Horn, Orinda, CA
