My overgrown hornbeam pre bonsai was in need of a summer pruning so I'm pruning back all the vigorous growth.
This is the European hornbeam (Carpinus betulus) which I hard pruned back in spring hoping that it will grow some branches near its top that could be used as a new apex. And boy did it grow! I now have to prune back this overgrown hornbeam to get it back in shape. So this video is about my hornbeam pre bonsai summer pruning.
A new flush of growth usually comes at the end of summer so it's a great time for pruning hornbeams to ensure that they gain enough energy to prepare for the winter season. I'm taking off a lot of the new growth generated since spring and I also make some new steps toward creating a new apex for this hornbeam pre bonsai.
Here's a link to the video on the spring pruning of my hornbeam:
