Hello,

I am new here and would like to get into Bonsai. My wife bought a money tree for me for my birthday a couple of years ago. I've re-potted it into a larger pot and it has grown taller but the branches are still quite thin. Will portions of the branch that have already turned brown thicken any or are they set where they are? Is this just something that will happen over time or should I be doing something to facilitate this kind of growth?

This is a braided money tree. Decorative, maybe, but it has gotten nothing to do with bonsai.
