In this video, I’m working on my California Scrub Oak bonsai, focusing on a detailed pruning session to bring the tree back under control. Since its last styling, a few issues have started to show up — elongated growth, loss of structure, and some areas that need correction. Today, I’ll be: 🌿 Carefully pruning to refine the branching 🌿 Restoring the overall shape and silhouette 🌿 Correcting problem areas from the previous styling 🌿 Rebalancing strength across the tree California scrub oak is an incredible species to work with, but it responds fast and can easily lose its structure if you’re not on top of maintenance. In this session, I’ll walk through my decision-making process and explain why I’m making each cut. If you’re growing native oaks or working on refinement pruning, this one’s for you.
