Hallo to all!
Im new to bonsai and i would love to get some help.
i have olive trunk with roots that the tip of thr tree was choped a while ago and it seems dead only on the top end.
I made some readig but still dont know where to cut the dead part.
Note that i want a little large trunk on he base but straight up as possible.
Dimensions :
Height around 20cm
diameter in the large part of the base of the trun is about 7cm.
Thanks!

i was triyng to edit but with no succes on the second edit so i will write here.
I wanted to explain myself better.
Im just making plans fr the spring to make the cut and what i desire for is to make a taper
that will then grow upright as possible.

Please help

I don't know why you would like to cut the dead part.

You have a good material for this technique, although, I can't find a good leader close to the wound. Maybe if you choose one further from the cut, I would consider to cut back more of main trunk.

Thanks for replay.
I have read this article.
This is what im planing to do to create a taper.
My question is where to cut so i will have a new leader.
Do you think it will be possible to have a new apex if i cut like on the pic below? maybe one of the new branches (circled in yellow) there will be a new leader?

Also, doy think i need to remove all the other branches on the bottom but from one to help with growth the trunk?
Or leave all of them to grow?

Thanks

Unless you are in a very hot climate, mediterenean so to speak, olive does not thicken quickly.

I think growing a new leader will take time. Also, olive does not close wounds, so you will not heal chop marks. I am afraid you would have to incorporate any cutmarks i nthe design.

Did you see my little olive that got smaller?

Yes i saw this post.
I live in israel so i have very hot climate and only two and a half months of actual winter, from mid december till the end of february.
I take this olive for a longterm project while i search for a ficus or ulmus.
I will be very happy to get some help and direction with how to go with this olive because i really love his trunk base.
