Sir, did you scrape the scion? newbie bonsai enthusiast here- thanks for the reply

Could a person also use wax "candle wax melted in a pot" to seal the scion, by painting the wax around the hole to a) avoid water from entering the drilled hole, and to b) act as a sealer ?

Leonard van der Merwe I haven't tried it but In principle yes. My problem with that method is that the wax should be cool enough not to burn the scion.

when is the best time to defoliate a tree? does deciduous tree are the only one to sustain leaf reduction? and by the way i really enjoy watching your video for beginner... and i really like your collection of bonsai.

+Muhammad Arsalan In a tropical area like mine, we can defoliate anytime as long as the leaves are mature, do not defoliate too frequently. depends also on the specie, as a guideline you may defoliate only once a year. But I defoliate on Ficus twice a year since they are vigorous growing. Note that defoliation is stressing to the tree, allow the tree to accumulate energy through its leaves and let the leaves mature well before defoliating them. In a Temperate climate, mimic the autumn or fall season, that is the time to defoliate them when it is naturally falling.

+Bonsai Iligan can all tree reduce its leaf size or is it only deciduous tree?
@BonsaiIligan8 жыл бұрын
+Muhammad Arsalan Not all tree has the ability to reduce its leaf size, though it tries to adapt and reduce a bit but only to a certain extent. That is also one reason why not all trees are good specimen for bonsai in spite that they have hard wood. Ask other bonsai growers in your area what are good materials or specimen for bonsai.

From air layer, but remember you don't only want thick trunks you also want character to make bonsai so you need to choose well when you propagate from large branches by air layering.
