My Dissectum Viridis is 107 years old. 12 ' x 20' spread. 28 years of aesthetic pruning. It's an art. Large branches are removed during the dormant period (Jan/Feb) and a lighter summer pruning. It's a methodical process. I am close to the look of a Bonsai tree I seek. Truly spectacular. Green all summer and scarlet red/orange in the fall.

Why wouldn’t you wait until fall to see the branch structure?

I did not find this video helpful and I’ll continue my research elsewhere, but I totally enjoyed watching the process, admiring this funky little acer. Truly therapeutic

Bonjour, excellente vidéo sur la taille de cet érable dissectum, dans laquelle j'apprécie votre façon de tailler cet arbre de manière raisonnable et réfléchit, ce qui permet à l'arbre, comme vous le décrivez dans cette vidéo, de garder une structure et un port naturelle. Cela change des autres vidéos que j'ai pu regarder ou il taille l'arbre sans distinction en masse juste pour obtenir à la fin une boule qui ne représente en rien le port naturelle d'un arbre !!! Félicitation et très bon travail, merci pour ce partage de votre savoir faire.🙂😉

Thank you! My tree looks just like that in my new house and I had no idea how to prune but still look natural. One question is when do I do it? Fall?

Fall is the best time , tree is dormant and no leaves so you can see what you are doing

When you prune is personal preference. I prefer pruning during summer or early autumn when the leaves are still on the tree. If you want to encourage a lot of new growth, spring is better. If you want to see the branch structure properly whilst pruning, then autumn is best, like Gary suggested.

What brand pruner should I purchase. MyJM is totally out of hand.
@OurJapaneseGardenEscape2 жыл бұрын
The pruners you use is totally personal preference. The ones I use are linked in the description box. They are Japanese garden tools, which are more expensive than other garden tools, but of high quality. So, I decided to invest in those tools. I think the most important is that the tool feels right for you, when holding it and when working with it. I do recommend high quality tools that cut well.
