Hawthorne_2


Management did me a great favour and brought me some bonsai food which i feed to the trees, giving me the confidence to make my first cut. as there's not a lot of body to the Hawthorne Ive pruned the top branch to give the sideways branch's a boost. hopefully it will have the desired effect, even though there is a bud with leaves lower down already. i don't want to do too much pruning as its still only in its second year but if i wait too long ill leave to great a mark on the tree where its supposed to look as natural as possible. its nice too know they made the spring as they were outside in a very harsh winter.
