This should be a lot of fun, again! We will be working with some of Lou and Murray's dwarf evergreens in a garden setting, utilizing Asian pruning and training techniques to achieve a "bonsai" spirit in a garden setting. We will be working with the same trees we pruned last year in 2009, training and pruning to add more design and bonsai ch'i to these landscape trees.
