Answer 1

no pruning is a very important part of plant care.. as a thumb rule prune to a maximum of 1/3 of the plant growth , any more tend to delay the recovery for normal plants...

now coming to bonsai , these are oft kept for the aesthetic apeal, thus to maintain their beauty you have to keep trimming/ prunig into shape at else once in 4 weeks.. else they will grow in odd shapes and soon will no longer remain "bonsai"
