P. virginiana - some training advice needed
Greetings: This tree was collected eight years ago from a strip-mined site (coal) in northern West Virginia. I have been its caretaker for a little over a year - it was acquired from a fellow club member, who unfortunately has had to scale back his bonsai endeavors because of personal reasons.
I have read much about training techniques for two-needled pines; however, I am still a good bit confused - if I could just pin down a few specific techniques for this tree as follows, it would be great...I would like to of course maintain small needle size, as well as induce some further inner ramification. I do not wish to grow the tree out any further. Thanks in advance for your time and input.
Regards,
Tom Simonyi
