- Dan Robinson takes us on a comprehensive tour of Elandan Gardens, the fabulous bonsai collection he created in Bremerton, Washington. He is joined by fellow bonsai experts David Easterbrook and David De Groot for a fascinating conversation.
Dan has been practicing the art of bonsai for over 50 years and has amassed an incredible collection of trees, cultivating a living museum along the shores of the Puget Sound in the Pacific Northwest of the United States.

The best compliment I can give Dan is that his trees looked like nobody ever styled them.............they look as natural as they would in nature.
This is the true American bonsai, I like trees that look like trees in the wild, not green helmets. I can't believe I haven't made the drive down there but looking forward to seeing Dan and his trees.
It's always a pleasure to see Dan!!!
Thanks Nigel when are you coming for an episode on the channel !?
Beautiful setting there with the misty sea in the background, does not get better than that.
Keep posting more thing about Dan and you and I will be here forever. Thanks a lot!
We will have to book another trip to the PNW!
Please keep posting about Dan, his trees are so interesting and I think that the more people know about him and his style of bonsai perhaps more of us will be inspired by him
There's without doubt a big leaning to convention in Bonsai but there's a whole lot to learn from Dan here by just making bonsai art your own way! Amazing!
Dan's most controversial view on bonsai is probably his no-repotting policy. But let's be honest it's so humid out there a tree could pratically grow bare rooted. He has definitely been doing something (incredibly) right to come up with these fabulous specimens!!!
Beautiful Bonsai 😍
Like 100!!! ❤️
My friend, thank you for good sharing 😊 Have a good day
Wonderful video much enjoyed 😊
It's heartening to hear he doesn't repot....!
An outstanding video. Thanks for that - additionally the music fully supported the content. Craig
All credit goes out to Garrett he did a fantastic job on this!
Quel personnage! Un grand merci à vous pour cette merveilleuse promenade!
Tout un personnage. Une véritable force de la nature
I watched this series so intently earlier that this short video is crash course on Dan Robinson ❤
I am freshly inspired. Thank you.
Beautiful. What inspired you the most about this garden Grace?
@@BonsaiSociety The discussion was very educational and important but I think how Dan uses the dead wood is what inspired me the most. It makes me want to hop in the car, head for the mountains and do some foraging!😍
David thanks for sharing Dan's garden. I wish to have chance to see all that beauty in my own eyes. Great experience
Very nice, will definitely visit.
Enjoyed this video.
An amazing Man and a sample of a very good artist in making beautiful bonsai and a bonsai artist of all time. All the bonsai shows how patient and artistic this kind of man is. A perfect example of all the aspiring bonsai artists. May the Lord blessed u a good health every time.
Dan is such a maverick. thanks for the video David!
Very interesting video!👍👍👍
Dan the man
Semplicemente fantastico
PERFECT
Omg! Dan looks like one of my all-time favorite football players... John Riggins!!!

The magical bonsai world of 80 years old n Robinson.
I am from Indonesia appretiate for your hobby.
Greeting hoby bonsai.
Good luck Sir.
Very, very good❤
Amazing
Great video David those trees are magnificent 👍👍👍
Thanks which one inspired you the most?
@@BonsaiSociety all of it,
Love the larches.
I’m a new to the art,, I love to make crazy insane weird pots for my bonsai.
I also feel that trees planted on rocks or In a more natural way is best
I’m currently making a
Black rhinoceros imitation petrified, rock pot,
The tree will sit on the horn of the rhino with exposed roots to soil level. As I said at the start unusual and crazy, some would probably say crazy stupid 😂😂
But we all have are own way of expressing ourselves through our art 😂😂
Love to watch David’s channel I’ve been a follower from the very beginning of his UA-cam journey and hope to learn a lot from him.
Sorry if I’m not correct in thinking this is probably not David I’m speaking to as I know he now has a team to help.
But please extend my kind regards, I look forward to the next video 👍👍👍👍
Wonderful visit, I've been wanting to drive from Spokane to visit with him, maybe spend a week there.
Wonderful Place!
I grew up with the perfect climbing maple outside the back door of the house. The trunk was over 5' at its widest. An amazing feature were the 4 links of giant chain and the bolts visible in the crook of the "y" where the trunk divided into two massive co-leaders grown over like neglected wiring.
Dan is a treasure.
Enjoy watching your videos and you said something about how you don't like the word cute. Well, since I have been collecting mame pots for bonsia I guess I could revert to saying cool. But I'd still rather say cute. I will try to send you a picture if I can.
Lovely is a far better word
I miss Bremerton.
When is the last time you went?
👍👌🙂
It is great to watch the videos but the music while they are talking is distracting and at times makes it difficult to understand what they are saying. Keep up the videos they are enjoyable
Hlo Sir I want join your nature 🌎
How I come your country plz hlp
I feel like i have been watching this video before?
Hi there, same video as a series previously posted but higher quality image and more condensed
@@BonsaiSociety ahh 1 year ago??
@@BonsaiSociety how is Dan doing today?
Well shit, I hate repotting. This gives me hope to just not repot anymore. lol
Those are the personal views of Dan. Keep in mind it is so humid in the PNW a tree could practically grow bare-rooted. We are not responsible for any loss of trees if someone decides not to repot
Filming is terrible. Too much camera on the men...instead of the trees. Awful 'highway/ sound in background, coupled wirh asinine music. Dan is good though. He deserves better footage,
