    A little late on the go, but here's the update of the Honeysuckle we collected 2017. This Lonicera maackii is extremely vigorous and can easily handle the extreme pruning I perform. Only work on healthy plants, and even then, only as much as they can take. This one's a workhorse! I hope you enjoy!
    Soil Mix: Sifted 2-6 mm
    3x Turface MVP
    3x Pine Bark
    2x Diatomaceous Earth
    1x Coarse Mason's sand

    Again, another really nice Video!!! Could watch your work and style the whole day:))) You have a nice, clean way to work with your material and i think this is what bonsai is all about. The Process, to think about the future result without stress and the way how we take care of every species we have, is what this great Hobby makes it so loveable.
    Good Artwork; Dude
    cheers

    Great to see someone working on a lonicer! I've got a 20+ year old Japanese Honeysuckle that has been living a neglected life pot bound for many years. Since repotting and heavily pruning, it grows gangbusters. There is no slowing it down! They get nice twisty gnarly looking trunks.
    Thanks for the video, very informative and now I dont feel so bad about cutting back so hard.

    Great job! I have a honeysuckle that was, originally, planted in the first part of 1900 to shield a poultry yard area. I rescued it around 1985. Doing the math says that the plant is older than 115 years and I have been maintaining it for 35 years. It is still growing beautifully and blooming every season. Cheers, Dick from Vancouver.

    I have been doing bonsai for almost 28 years and I picked up an idea from you which I think is marvelous. The air tubing to protect the truck and roots. Wonderful idea and thoroughly enjoyed your video.

    It is always great to see someone with a passion for whatever they do. I had a bonsai given to me many years ago , a maple and I had to give it it away when I left the country. Unfortunately it died in my absence. I think late winter I will be out in GA looking for a candidate I can do myself. Your knowledge will be indispensable. Thank you for adding something to the world that is good.

      Super invasive!! But they grow quickly. I'm not sure if you've seen this, but my honeysuckle requires yearly repots. Otherwise it weakens quickly.

  • @erickborling1302
    @erickborling1302 5 років тому

    Using invasive species is indeed a HOT tip, because they can grow well after aggressive care. In my neck of the woods that is the Ulmus Pumilla or Siberian Elm which is ubiquitous in Central Washington. What’s more; the seeds sprout in days, and you can plant then over a submerged rock of your choice, gradually lowering the soil. Another great one is the Ulmus Parvifolia or Chinese Smoothbark Elm. If you have relatives down south, you might convince them to grab a handfull of seeds for you. Another good variety is the Crape Myrtle (Lagerstroemia Indica). These are all tricky with regard to winter survival and insect pests. Thanks for the soil tips especially.

    • @AppalachianBonsai
      @AppalachianBonsai  5 років тому

      You bet!! Lots of invasives make great material for bonsai. We have loads of Amur honeysuckle, but also Callory pear, barberry, and (surprisingly) trident maples. My friend can't get rid of them!!

    @michele73michele 5 років тому

    nice one. I am not familiar with this species but your explanation was very good and one can tell that you clearly know what to do with it. I like to keep my trees away from sunlight for 2-3 weeks after repotting (not just 2 days) it may be that this tree is so hardy that doesn't need protection. I liked the use of the large power tool to bulk carve I will take that idea onboard for the future.

    • @AppalachianBonsai
      @AppalachianBonsai  5 років тому

    Speaking of invasive species, I'll be collecting some buckthron this spring from my parents' land. I'm in Wisconsin, and that crap is a serious problem here. Should make some decent bonsai tho, particularly the ones that my dad has already (repeatedly) tried to kill, not to mention ones deer have munched on. Over christmas, I found a couple which had double trunks that had wrapped around each other -- something apparently not uncommon with buckthorn, as they do that to other trees as well to choke them out. I actually found a pretty thick bucktorn as well that had wrapped around a paper birch, trying to kill it. Come spring, I'll be killing that particular damned buckthorn as well. We WANT the paper birch, and the buckthorn has been outcompeting it, sadly.

      @AppalachianBonsai  5 років тому

      Maybe. I have some concerns with the way we all work in our soil. The smallest and heaviest of the particles will always go to the bottom, which isn't necessarily a good thing. Think fluidised bed or gold panning... Maybe for the last step like I do when I bang the sides? Its fun to think about!
