Hello,

I wanted to ask for advice or requests. This is my juniper tree that I pruned it to my liking and tried shaping. I wanted to ask is the tree still too young to shape, and any advice do you suggest?

Thank you for the help!

If you want to put mowement to the trunk that can be done now. But it can also wait a few years.

The younger you bend a branch, the more detailed and specific the bends are (Thick branches bend only a little bit). I am a big fan of baby-bending branches for bonsai; So yeah, wire now if you want to shape the main trunk. (Optimal time for it would be late september-november if your winter is still 4-8 weeks away, or right at the end of winter, then protect from deep frost afterwards)
