I just got my first bonsai and it’s growing well. But I’m still afraid to trim it. Any tips? Thanks

Wow that is amazing do you have bonsai wire.

#### Just a guy replied on 2025-07-22

Looks like the style it in right now is in a semi cascade. To illustrate this beautiful style first reveal the trunk line. Then with bonsai wire turn the trunk in the desired direction. Don’t be afraid to make dramatic turns in your bonsai.  
Don’t do too much at once since junipers are sensitive to pruning and wiring. Of force you don’t have to follow my advice do whatever you want I’m just giving advice. You could go for a windswept bonsai. This requires a lot of skill so I don’t suggest it.

No. But I can get it. Should I turn it up?
