I Pruned My Japanese Larch and Look What Happened!

Описание: In this episode, I revisit my *stunning Larch Mountain group* to reveal just how effective the *Spring pruning* has been — and why a carefully timed *second pruning* is essential for achieving **better ramification and refined development**.

You’ll also see the *first styling* in my Bare-Root Larch to Bonsai series, plus *before & after pruning* on two more of my unique Japanese Larch bonsai. Packed with *close-up examples* and **practical tutorial tips**, this video is ideal for anyone serious about developing larch into their full potential.

🌿 *Highlights include:*

The benefits of a 2nd pruning for structure and density
First styling steps on bare-root collected larch
Side-by-side before & after results on established trees
