Prune · Trunk Chop

There was so much confusion going on here.

I started from the bottom and began pruning out all bar branching from the trunk and 3 to two branchnig on all branches.

I really didn’t like the total lack of taper. I made the decision that the only good approach for this tree was to take many steps back and do a full trunk chop. So I did.

Back to the pre-bonsai group for this one. It never really deserved to be called a bonsai anyway. Long term this will be for the best.
