Hi there folks, well down here in oz its that time of year that its bloody freezing but hthe days are starting to get longer again.
Well, needless to say ive started pruning all my maples, and low and behold i went to my parents house to pick up a few more maples, and the couple of tridents were already totally covered in Buds and some were even throwing out leaves!
will this exhaust the trees? they are only pre bonsai at the moment and i havn't had this problem with a maple before! my BIG trident maple which u just gave a pruning is doing perfect. just barely starting to throw out buds, but the other two already have green leaves sprouting!
they are a bit over grown and totally root bound in 12" pots, would it be ok now to give them a root prune and branch prune??
thanks so much in advance guys!
