A creative solution to a bonsai tree with a big problem.

Thanks for letting us watch the creative process. Great video.

Thank you very much.

That stone fits in there pretty good. Ive got a locust that had a lot of galls. i cut them all off when i collected it a few years ago but It still occasionally gets them. Im going to put it in a bigger pot this year as Ive found it to be a very thirsty tree.

[@beardedbonsai]

I agree they do seem to be quite thirsty this one has always lived in an oversized container. I will soon find out how it does in a more confined container.

nice every day a new video! and also a tree with a decent size! when it comes to trees and beards size actually matters 😉

[@beardedbonsai]

Thanks Anna. I wish I had something different to film than repotting but it's that time of year and I need to get them done.

[@annanym5947]

@@beardedbonsai np i like repottings :) im in the middle of my repottings as well
may i ask what you are planning to do with those 3 trunks emerging from almost the same spot? do you leave them or reduce them to two or just one in the future to avoid inverse taper?

[@beardedbonsai]

Good question. They do emerge from 2 different points but they are very close. So far there is no inverse taper showing. If it dose start to develop inverse taper I think I will reduce it to one leader. I like the left one best for that option.
