I think 'flame style' is the natural result of sensible pruning of mature
ginko bonsai. One of the better discussions about ginko as bonsai takes
place in Mr. Kyuzo Murata's book 'Bonsai: Miniature Potted Trees'.

I have many books that address techniques to follow when developing trees
into all the various but most common styles. I want to develop an old
gingko stump into the older "flame" style for lack of a better
description.
Is anyone aware of any books that address this style development?
