Just saw your lovely video about your adventure at Herons. Great seeing you - sorry I couldn't spend more time with you as I had a thousand and one things to do over that weekend. You can camp again when you visit next time, but if there hadn't been so many people staying at our Guest House last weekend you wouldn't have had to sleep like a migrant in a leaky tent !! but it made for a good fun video. Good luck in all you do. Bonsai is about fun and you certainly captured that spirit .
Hi Peter! Great to see you too! I totally understand there was so many things to do on that weekend. I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of my visit, even with the leaky tent it was all a part of the adventure! 😊Thanks again and I hope to visit you again!
What an adventure, Peter and Kevin put on an amazing event and all for a good cause! Adam went full Blair Witch, glad you made it back home alive, lol!!!
@@notionbonsai Rambling on and Stephen Reid...have a look at those channels and you will pick up a few camping tricks for our climate. :D Thanks for showing us the event.
Thanks Adam. Great day has been had by all the people who where at the event plus like me the people watching your video. I visited Peter in the early 80s with my wife, then it was nothing like it is now, we had a chat with Peter, both he and my late wife had a connection through Hong Kong, they talked about the early days in the 50s and 60s. The range of trees at that time were limited so I only bought a very large piece of drift wood which I still have. All the best Adam.
@@notionbonsai Hi Adam, it’s not a shape that would lend itself to do a tanuki unfortunately, its actually two separate pieces bolted together, my idea and it’s been my idea for years is to plant it up but it’s a difficult shape to do that.
Amazing to think Jelle and I were there a few days later and it was glorious bright sunshine. Lovely variety of content and fun to watch you collecting water :)
What an amazing event! The dead wood on those trees was simply stunning!! I would be so broke leaving his place!! Peter is an amazing man! He gives so freely of his time and knowledge and no doubt, funds to great causes like the Hospice Centers. My mother died at a hospice center around 2012. It was a fabulous place and I donated a quilt in my mother's memory, they have it hanging on a wall. But you got all the good stuff over there!! How fun this event looked!! Thanks for this video! Yes I would like to see more videos like this. But I think you need a water proof tent!! I can't believe they sell tents in the UK that are not water proof!😂😂
Thank you so much for sharing your story, it means a lot! Hospice centers do such incredible work, and it’s amazing that you donated a quilt in your mother's memory. I couldn’t agree more about Peter and his generosity and passion for bonsai are truly inspiring! I totally get you on the “broke” part leaving his place with an empty wallet is a real risk! 😂 I’ll definitely keep the videos coming, and you’re right about the tent! Next time, a waterproof one is top of the list! Thanks again for watching, and I’m so glad you enjoyed the video! 😊🪴
I don't leave comments on UA-cam, but it looks like I have to type something here to send the "Thanks" money. Thanks for making this one-of-a-kind video to brighten my evening!
You are so lucky. I would have loved to have gone to that rain or not and what a great cause too. I hope you enjoyed yourself and I’m happy you didn’t float away in the storm because I’m looking forward to seeing what you’ll do with your Heron Bonsai purchases
Bro managed to make a camping video look informative… hats off. You did look a little demonic in night vision 😜 but the video did not disappoint! Really fun to see you use your filming skills for these vlog style videos. Thanks for sharing!
Adam such a great video. I'd have loved to been there. You guys looked like you had a blast. Peter is great. I'm saving my money to fly over and go to the nursery. Thanks for sharing my friend.
I had a huge grin on my face during this whole video! I just started learning about bonsai and had subscribed to both you and Peter a few months ago. To see you together in real life was so crazy for me hahahaha! I can't wait to see you work on the cuttings you brought home from this event. Thank you for sharing your adventure and knowledge :)
The thought of sleeping in a tent was first introduced in 1968 by Peter Chan hence why people call it the “Peter Chan’s Tent Trick”! The idea originally came from Air Layering whether instead of Sphagnum Moss you use sleeping bag to keep your roots warm 😅
This looked like a great event. I hope you managed to pick up a nice tree or pot while you were there. Ps. I could have accommodated you in the back garden in a tent? Didn’t realise that was an option at the time 😂
It was really nice to meet everyone 😊 I just got a few little cuttings! You never know if I was in a tent I might have started pruning all your trees in the night! lol
I have made many bonsai that looked like that one he took a drill tool to, but it was when I ran over it with a brush hog on my tractor, LOL Great video, it would be neat to know the variety of elm, and some prices
Don't heard business industry your people smile show power love national thanks oxygen today taller Jack people thanks ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤day happened taller in life people see what control life you ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤super ✌
How funny with he storm. One you should set up a tent at least once and wet it so it gets “seasoned “ which expands the weave of the material And also don’t touch such leaks it makes it leak more 😄. And those patches are for small rips. Also great video. A different perspective of herons. 👍👍👍🦘🇦🇺

Thanks so much Dave! Very true hahaha!

Hey Joe! I am glad that I was able to share some of my trip with you 😊Ohh nice! Would you ever make a tanuki with it?

@@joegarland4885 Ahh that makes sense! Can still make a lovely natural sculpture ornament piece!
Great fun video Adam! You've also inspired me to camp out .. in Nigel's backyard! 😆😂🤣🐦💙
😂
That sounds like a fun time haha! 🤣🤣
Lol Jay!!!
Another great video Adam, brilliantly depicting a fantastic day for a really worthy cause.
Great to meet you too.

Definitely! I did not care what the weather was, to camp there was an amazing experience and I am glad that I can share it here!
Loved this video Adam! So many beautiful bonsai to look at! I thought that I had stumbled onto one of my paranormal channels for a while there. 🤣 Xxx
Really ingenious for you to camp onsite of Herons hallowed ground, you showed us another side of this institution !
It was a great experience for sure!!
I follow you and Peter and it’s nice to see Heron from your perspective.
Hey thanks so much for following the channel! 😊I am glad you enjoyed!
I’m very jealous Adam. What an awesome opportunity. Hopefully I can make it across the pond and visit one day soon!
It was an amazing experience and I am very grateful I was able to go. Maybe some day! 🙂 Thanks so much for watching Tyler!

😅🤣Thanks man! I do enjoy the vlog style videos!!
Your face in the tent when the clap of thunder happened made me laugh.
Adam such a great video. I'd have loved to been there. You guys looked like you had a blast. Peter is great. I'm saving my money to fly over and go to the nursery. Thanks for sharing my friend.
Thank you Frederick! You never know they might put an event on like this again! I hope you have a wonderful time when you go! Where are you from?
@@notionbonsai california. Central valley. I've wanted to travel to Ireland and England, bucket list. Where did you fly into when you went to Peter's
@@frederickdominguez4829 Nice! I flew into Gatwick Airport

So fantastic Adam. I smiled so often during this video. What a great journey!
Thanks so much Dave! Glad it made you smile 😊
Chanced upon your Azlea bonsai video that led me here! You have so much talent in you and I have enjoyed and gained much from your video. Keep it up!
Love your vlogs! Thank you, Adam!
Thanks so much Анастасия 🙂
Daaamn, that was cool. You're all terrain, my guy.
Hey thank you Adalid!
If i ever visit the UK, Herons bonsai is the one place i really want to visit! Really like your videos, keep up the good work!
It is a great place to go to see lots of nice trees! Staff are also very welcoming and friendly! Thanks very much Mattias!
Fantastic i hope Peter makes it an annual event 😀
I hope so too! It is a great thing for the Bonsai community and of course for a good cause 😊
Ahh the joys of sleeping in a tent!
Very true Joyce! lol
Was great to meet u
You too Lee!! 😊
What Fun , thanks for taking us :) , all the trees are amazing !
Thank you for watching 🙂 They sure were!!
This looked like a great event. I hope you managed to pick up a nice tree or pot while you were there.
Ps. I could have accommodated you in the back garden in a tent? Didn’t realise that was an option at the time 😂
It was really nice to meet everyone 😊 I just got a few little cuttings!
You never know if I was in a tent I might have started pruning all your trees in the night! lol
@@notionbonsai😂
Was good to see u and was so nice to have pictures and catch to u and see me in your video a few times 😜
Nice to meet you too Dave! 😊
Looks a wonderful day out. From John in 🇿🇦
Thanks!
Thank you so much for your support!! ❤️🌲😄
Nice video. I love your approach and enthusiasm.
hey thanks so much Kenneth!
Thanks Adam great video cheers 😮
Hey thank you so much 😊
Thanks🤝
Hey thanks for watching Krisz!
Cool. I wanna visit them too. Next time in UK. Btw. I was so afraid your hair would get wet in the tent and never dry back…😂😂😂
I enjoyed this. Felt sorry for you in that leaking tent though!
Hey thanks Imo! Thankfully it didnt rain for long!
that elm species at 7min is the seiju chinese elm variety
Ahhh thank you very much for this!!
Lucky you!
Man you are so lucky!!!
What an adventure and fun event Adam!!
Thanks so much for watching, Raymond! 😊
I left the UK on 7th of September. I missed the chance to meet you and Peter and many others! Next time then. Fricking cool video!
Aww thats such a shame!! Maybe next time for sure yes! Thanks so much!
I have made many bonsai that looked like that one he took a drill tool to, but it was when I ran over it with a brush hog on my tractor, LOL Great video, it would be neat to know the variety of elm, and some prices
Hey thanks so much! Maybe with enough time it will look better after being ran over 😅 The variety is a seiju chinese elm!
Great video🎉
Thank you Bryan!😁
Brilliant video. Very interesting..
Thanks so much Conor!!
stoked for this
😊
Such a wonderful video!!
Thanks so much Jesse! 😊
Great meeting you at Herons! It was cool to see you in person. I hope there is another one of these events soon. :)
Nice to meet you too Yannick! 🙂
Great video as always, but how did you manage to buy a tent that not only lets water in through the floor but also through the ceiling 😂
🤣😅This is a very good question lol! It was a cheap £30 tent!
Very nice experience!
Thanks Jelle! I hope you enjoyed your time there too!
I'd love to attend this event!
Maybe next time if they do one again!! 😊
Cool stuff
Hey! Thank you for watching Timothy 😊
I hope Peter puts an another event like this on, I couldn’t make this one. Do you think he’d let me park my campervan in his nursery property?
I hope so too! You would have to ask him but on the day he allowed someone to park their campervan 🙂
What neat camping gear. I wonder if there anything like that here in Canada.
I found these things on Amazon so you never know! 🙂
Yeah…
😊
bit unlucky to catch that rain!
It was! I am glad I made it through the night!
Hey man you still have your cherry blossom tree ?
What is the mattress you blow at the beginning? What brand is it?
👍👏👏
Cute
😊
sorry about my squeeky shoes @6:35 hehe
Aw no worries hahaha 🤣It was nice to meet you man!
👍👌🙂

Every sentence contains at least one "yeh"... Kevin is a joke and he has no part of Herons. I never watch his input!
How funny with he storm. One you should set up a tent at least once and wet it so it gets “seasoned “ which expands the weave of the material And also don’t touch such leaks it makes it leak more 😄. And those patches are for small rips. Also great video. A different perspective of herons. 👍👍👍🦘🇦🇺
Thank you for this advice! I did not know you had to season a tent! 🤣
You're living the dream! Thanks for sharing, would have loved to join if it wasn't this far from me 🥲
Thanks Dorian! Maybe next time you can travel over!!
