Experimenting with creating bonsai is a great way to learn, and I happened across a reasonably priced plaited trunked Ficus in a garden store last year and wanted to find out a bit more about how they actually create the plaited trunks so I bought one to find out.
Below is the stages following purchase through to repotting to understand how they make them.
There are some excellent examples of live tree shaping too which capture the imagination and I love the work of Axel Eriandson and there is no end to the creatitivity trees inspire from seats to living root bridges.
