Hello!
I just got two cuttings that I have planted. How would you go about to make this more bonsai like?
Is it OK to cut all the leaves off and braid/twist them together this early or should it wait? Do I cut the leaves of all the way to the stem?
Thanks in advance!

A braided money tree is not a bonsai.
This plant is not suitable for bonsai.

What makes it not suitable?
How about the pruning of the leaves? Do I cut them all the way to the stem?

This is a forum about bonsai, not about braided house plants.
Sorry, I cannot give you any advice on this subject.
