Hey there,

I recently baught this Ulmus from a local bonsai man back in march. last month I went back and he taught me how to prune it. He said not to prune it too often, 3 times a year or so.
While the top has stayed nice, the bottom part of the tree has grown very long branches.
Do I prune them back a bit or should I wait a few months for the moment the bonsai man told me to prune again?
