I have a tree similar to this one. My plan is to airlayer it, and twist them up early. Get 5 trees out of one…Happy days 😊

Great tip

[@MamaJArk]

Helpful. I am new to bonsai and working primarily with wild grown materials. They can be quite different. Not trying to force all the bits into a composition makes sense.

If this isn't a hit I don't know what is!

Why not try it as a twin trunk? The trunks could mirror and balance each other. 😊

[@BonsaiEn]

The growth on 1 trunk would need to be much lower then the other to make that kind of design work. You could potentially slowly push the growth on 1 side back over the years if this is something you really wanted to achieve. You could also do a Cascade with 1 trunk being the tail and use the other as an apex or even do one of those really far out twisty south-east Asia designs. There's a lot of options in there as long as you can identify them. How ever these trees were just a good example of you don't always need to use absolutely everything that's on the tree.
