In this video, I show you how to design, plan and prune your bonsai tree in the commonly known Broom Style. This style is also known as "Hokidachi style". In the long term I want to create an umbrella silhouette for my tree, sometimes also known as Umbrella style.
I work on my Zelkova bonsai:
- designing and creating the branch structure,
- pruning all the branches back, explaining the pruning decisions,
- encouraging the ramification that we need to make a beautiful winter image when a deciduous tree loses its leaves.
The Zelkova Serrata is sometimes called Japanese elm, and it has very similar characteristics to a common elm but in fact the Zelkova is a separate genus of trees than the "Ulmus" genus that includes common elm and Chinese elm.
