informal upright moyogi on Bonsai

If your Bonsai has informal upright moyogi, the most likely cause is: Informal upright (moyogi) features a trunk with gentle natural S-curves where the apex remains positioned over the base, creating organic dynamic composition that appears natural while following classical proportion guidelines.
Start here:
- 1. Select material with subtle natural trunk movement rather than straight sections
- 2. Train trunk curves using careful wiring while preserving the organic feel
