The whole cypress bonsai leaves a piece by cutting the top, which is beautiful and generous.

Choose a cypress tree with a height of 1 m and a good shape. It is best to have 3 ~ 4 branches on the trunk, and each branch should be tied into a strip and distributed on both sides of the trunk on the viewing surface. If individual branches are located in the front and back of the trunk, they can be bundled and shaped so that they are distributed in the gaps on both sides of the trunk.

The trunk is tied into an "S" shape with brown rope or iron wire from the appropriate part of the base. The bending trend of the trunk depends on the tree potential, and the bending is natural. After the trunk is coiled, branches and leaves should be made according to the natural shape of the tree and the top should be cut off. Be careful not to show stubble, and don't get caught in a conical pattern, so as to appear vigorous and natural. The patches distributed on both sides of the trunk should be patchy, dynamic and not rigid. It's complicated but not stuffed, simple but not empty, with distinct layers and natural transition, becoming a beautiful tree.

The root of the first potted plant of cypress should be covered with lodging soil, and the root without lodging soil should be dipped in some soil, so that it is easy to take root and survive. Longbai is fond of the sun, and slightly tolerant to yin and drought. But afraid of waterlogging, basin soil drainage must be good. Water should not be wet, but dry and wet. Longbai likes fertilizer, which can be applied once a month with decomposed dilute fertilizer solution. Longbai is cold-resistant and can overwinter in the open air in winter. Longbai bonsai can be placed in the yard for people to watch. The bark of cypress is rough and soft, and it won't break when planted properly. After the leaves are made, the branches should be straightened one by one according to their growth laws. If the branches on the leaves are sparse, they can be supplemented by sowing and binding adjacent branches. Cut off the main branches that are too long or too dense. Truncation can inhibit the growth of main panicle and is beneficial to adjust the density between leaves. Cut off the extra branches hidden under the leaves and expand the gaps between the leaves of plants to facilitate ventilation and light transmission. Strive to erect the main head of each branch on each cluster of leaves, so that its shape is natural, the whole is concise and lively, and the momentum is extraordinary.

The cypress has dense green branches and leaves, vigorous and straight branches, aging bark, hidden trunk and strange posture. The roots are staggered, the roots are exposed, and the basin surface is twisted. Magnificent, simple and elegant, very poetic. It is suitable for viewing all year round. Longbai has strong growth ability and strong resistance. However, diseases are prone to occur in summer and rainy season. It can be controlled by spraying bordeaux mixture.
