TAPER
ON SMALL CUTS
On this specimen, taper at the
ends of branches that were cut
previously, is achieved by carving
away some of the branch.
SHAPING
Water jasmines have a natural
growth habit, producing
horizontal lateral branches that
create an attractive layered
appearance. The lower part of
this specimen is being pruned
and shaped for a future bonsai
and the top is allowed to grow
to create a large trunk and wide
roots.
