I am back and ready to get back into some serious Defoliation on my English Oak Bonsai! In this video, I will be cleaning the deadwood and adding lime sulphur, I will also be putting some shape into this lovely tree, ;) Here's a more detailed explanation: Back Budding Ability: Oak trees, particularly English oaks (Quercus robur), are known for their ability to back bud, meaning they can sprout new growth from dormant buds on older branches and even the trunk. Importance of Bud Retention: When pruning, it's crucial to leave some buds or leaves on the branch to prevent dieback, especially on older branches. Bonsai: Oak trees are popular for bonsai because of their ability to back bud. Bonsai enthusiasts utilize back budding techniques to create denser, more compact trees.
