JONAS DUPUICH from Bonsai Tonight has a new article titled “Branch development on Coast Live Oak – results after 8 months” out. I think the techniques in this article can probably used for many species of oak. I have a cork bark oak I am going to try it out on plus a couple pin oaks. I have added this article to the following pages: Ramification, Developing Deciduous Bonsai Material and Trunk and Root Development listed on Bonsai Basics.
