Magnolia stellata. Of all the magnolias, it's the only one you might
possibly want to try as a bonsai, but I doubt it will cooperate about
branch placement. Original poster: is this really about needing one
branch, or is the trunk too long? You might need to "top off" the
plant to fix this, only I don't know what a magnolia will do if you top
it off.


It will sprout all kinds of buds below the trunk.
