As much as you want it to happen not everyone will want to do bonsai for the same reasons. Or even at the same level. All routes are fine just as long as it makes the person doing the chore happy.


Ron,

While it is true, as I plainly pointed out myself above, that not everyone travels down the same road but the destination is the same. Quality bonsai. In order to achive this we must style and to style we must have a direction in mind.

Once you decide the first time that a plant would look better without a branch, shorter, with a thicker trunk, or with more foliage, you are making decisions that will please the eye. You my friend are on the artistic road, some are just further along than others.
