If you grow or plan to grow Bald cypress bonsai, it’s vital that you learn an indispensable development technique – defoliation. It may sound challenging at first blush, but it’s one of the easiest and most beneficial techniques you’ll ever use in growing bonsai.
Here’s a short video showing the defoliation of a very large Bald cypress. It’s a technique I highly recommend for the development of the species. Let me know what you think! Leave a comment below.
Hi Zach- I have a Bald Cypress sapling- probably about two feet tall. Is it possible to create a bonsai with it?
Great idea!
I had never tried this before. Thanks for the idea.
Thank you, Pierre. The technique can work wonders.
