When should I performe this? Does it bud back if I cut to 5cm over the root base? I have read that birches don't like much cutting, that's why I asked. __________________ The journey of a thousand miles starts with a single cup of tea Last edited by Tiny-Plant : 18-Mar-2004 at 01:29 PM.

You would probably want to thread graft and establish a new leader well before you cut back. Regards, Matt __________________ Want to be a seller on bonsaiAUCTIONS?

Good thing that I asked before trying it out myself=) __________________ The journey of a thousand miles starts with a single cup of tea
