Cotoneaster Yamadori

This is a yamadori I got from a groundcover. It does need a lot of work that still needs to be done. Enjoy.







Time for some pruning and wiring.

After pruning I grabbed some aluminum wire and post-it notes to protect the tree from wire damage.  Then quickly wired up the tree to pull some of the branches down to let some light in on the trunk for ramification.

Well that's it for now. This is nowhere near even a pre-bonsai but it's on it's way. Please leave comments, I would like to hear from my fellow viewers.
