    Those bitter pears are used to make Perry. Perry is the cider of pears and those bitter and astringent flavors once fermented make for wonderful flavors and aromatics in perry.

    Looks like some nice trees were collected ! This is a very nice area and for some reason in some of the forests along the bottom of the escarpment, up this road to Wiarton the ash trees are still thriving up to this year. It is a good thing, but strange how they are not effected yet. I recognized where you where from the look out. I really enjoyed the video, beautiful place.

I made my first travel vlog this year so I know it takes a lot of footage to make a video like this, and filming in the car is deceptively difficult. Great job Nigel! 17:36 That cliff reminds me of the early bonsai, inspired by the weathered and gnarled trees growing in the cliffs of Japan. OMG, you do your own music?!?!? Awesome!

    Hey Nigel, Love your Bonsai Zone! I wanted to ask you - so you're collecting in late September these Yamadories? What is the aftercare for the upcoming cold winter? Will you keep them in the greenhouse? I presume you will use your usual turfus and perlit soil mix?
    Thanks so much in advance!

    • @JohnJames.
      @JohnJames. 5 років тому +1

      roots keep growing until 4 degrees, I feel they focus on root production for the rest of the season. I came across a specimen that a loader left after a big dig, it was late in season , tree had no leafs but full of buds, potted up in peat and grit (had no perlite ) . it survived at grew great this year. it was good faith, as I had admired this tree before, a beaver had chewed the top off twice , creating a beautiful natural bonsai

    Hey Nigel. Great video! I have my yamadori spots picked out but I thought I had to wait until spring to start digging them up. What are your thoughts?

    • @TheBonsaiZone
      @TheBonsaiZone  5 років тому +1

      It is best to wait until spring, but if the tree is dug up carefully and you get a lot of the roots intact, the survival rate will be high. You will have to protect it over winter from the cold trying to keep the roots just above freezing. It is probably best to replant the tree in it's pot into the ground for the winter and mulch around the tree to keep it warm. Rabbits and mice will try and eat your tree, so you may need hardware cloth around the tree to keep them away!

    Dear Nigel, as much as I like your videos, this is not my taste. I do not like trees being snatched from nature. As a young man, I was also tempted to take trees from nature to get to a beautiful bonsai. I never did it because my heart told me it was wrong. Bonsai makes from plants that you can get in a garden center or from a hedge someone wants to redesign. There are so many possibilities to get nice starting material.
    I will not rate this video as positive or negative, as I can understand how tempting it is to get bonsai this way, but I think it's not the way to go, but everyone has to decide for themselves.

      My only issue with it is a lot of collected trees will not thrive and die, but overall i would say the environmental impact is not much as long as it is done carefully and respectfully and the best is put into making sure the tree survives.

      @@selfmade6142, and yet it is a long tradition of bonsai practitioners to collect wild trees. It has a special word in Japanese, "yamadori". If collecting wild trees is somehow wrong then confining trees to pots is wrong. By the way, do you live in a building? Is it constructed, at least in part, out of wood. Guess where that wood came from.

      Thank you for sharing your opinion, but you are not the arbiter of what a "true bonsaist" is. There is absolutely nothing wrong with harvesting a wild tree. If harvesting a wild tree is somehow wrong, then the entire art of twisting, cutting, and shaping a tree is wrong.
