[IBC] Hard Pruning a Satsuki - Now or later?
I would like to hard prune a Satsuki. What's the best time to hard prune a
Satsuki? I am in zone 7 - Portland Oregon, and fall has just arrived. Picture posted on IBC Potensai forum (http://internetbonsaiclub.org/compon...,133/topic,170 52.0/) The Back story - This was given to me by a club member 3 years ago. It was a stump with branches poking out at all angles. I have identified a single branch that will become a trunk, and some side branches - as you can see this will require a very hard pruning of the existing foliage - leaving a huge base compared to the single remaining trunk - highlighted in yellow. What do you think? Do it now, or wait till spring?
