Larch Bonsai Maintenance: Pinching and Cleanup
My larch bonsai was looking shaggy next to my recently-tidied dwarf Alberta spruce, so I gave it a trim. I pinch new shoots and trim the sedum in the understory. It’s looking sharp after the trim. I love this tree - it looks good from many angles and seasonal interest year round.
