I've been a landscape designer and selective pruning specialist,for the last 22 years. So naturally I wanted to pick up bonsai, I started bonsai about 11 years ago and I am still learning. This is an art form that takes tons of patience, perspective, and willingness to learn from the mistakes you have made along the way. And by learning the bonsai art form, I realized a lot about life that I had no idea was connected to bonsai. I know nobody here knows who I am, but in a nutshell, practicing the art of bonsai, change my perspective on life, and rectified the path I was going down. And then I find this channel.... The way he explains everything, the tone of his voice, even when ideas pop into his head and he voices them out loud he makes you feel as if you were in the room and it was just a conversation between you, him, and the bonsai. And I'm learning all kinds of new tricks I'm getting all kinds of new ideas. Thank you bonsai heirloom for this channel
Before I became disabled I was an avid gardener. After thirty or so year, I had planned on learning bonsai and begun to study it. Life had other plans. To say I loved my plants is not an exaggeration. To me they had a presence which I found both humbling and healing. To watch a plant grow from seed or seedling to maturity, the emergence of new leaves, the opening of a blossom, the emergence of fruit, the end of the plants lifecycle taught me things about myself which I still carry with me. It certainly helped me deal with the suddenness and severity of my disability, as well as other hardships we all experience as part of being human.
I'm just beginning a tree myself. My very first one. Sometimes I reflect on my age, nearly 72, and wonder how long I'll be around to see results. But then I realize that this art is not about me. If I manage to succeed in the early stages, my tree could be in another's care, as is your sublime Juniper. Your work is truly incredible, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to learn from you here!
Hey, I'm still doing bonsai at my age! And yes, bonsai is also about passing down your heirloom to a loved one who will continue to care for it. I plan to pass down my bonsai to my family.
I love the bonsai tree. My mother had 2 for over 40 years, one old and one she created herself out of 5 oak seedlings on a hill orientation. Both lived in the garden near her bedroom window. Within a month of her passing away both trees began to falter and 6 months later had died completely. I took the to a specialist who said they were both very healthy but were mourning my mother. So so sad. I have enjoyed your video and will certainly consider getting one myself
In my younger days of Bonsai growth, I was able to go to the local nurseries and get all their "ugly" potted plants for a song. Then they caught on and I had to work for them to be able to afford the raw materials. I haven't worked on any for over thirty years now. My wife is telling me to get my behind a moving to start up again. Like your channel and I will keep coming back to enjoy your work with you. Stay safe.
You and I have the same strategy! At bonsai auctions, I go for the trees that look like they have potential instead of the very nice looking ones. I hope you will start doing bonsai again! It is a great hobby!
Yeah I used to be able to find old gnarled rootbound junipers and Chinese elms and other stock in the back of nursery's or some overgrown corner of their shade houses and get them for like one or two bucks, they'd be happy to get rid of them usually. Now it seems alot harder to find them or they hear bonsai and want an arm and a leg for them, or slap em in a bonsai pot themselves roughly without proper training or anything and call them bonsai and charge a premium. Which is always disappointing. That said though there does seem to be more good quality pre-bonsai stock around my area than there used to be too. That's had some initial work done and don't tend to have all the problems that nursery stock can have like reverse taper and all so ita a positive i guess. But I do miss that sort of a treasure hunt vibe I'd get before and finding those hidden raw gems.
@@iamshredder3587 The urban tree hunt is most diffidently a missed adventure! I would have loved to bring my son on these trips of discovery. Take care and stay safe.
The quality of trees, content, and knowledge of this channel is top tier, Milton. Your channel has exploded in the last couple of months and that's due to the outstanding content you are creating. Keep it coming!
The design he chose was so intuitive with the outstretched arm form terminating in a hand and the anthropomorphic tree with outstretched branch arms behind. He’s so talented and natural and such a good teacher.
Bonsai is an art, it is painting a picture of nature using nature and it takes an artist to do that. Unfortunately I am no such artist but I can enjoy and appreciate the creations of others :).
Thank you for this amazing bonsai tutorial. Your an inspiration to us all & naturally I have subscribed & look forward to many more lessons from you. Bless you Sir.
What a spectacular tree ..has an amazing shape once the foliage pads are grown out....... Wow what a tree... I think the planting angle is perfect that you picked
I really enjoyed the gentle passion of the artist shape the delicate tree with trying to smash the pot and then use his reciprocating saw to shape the root system. My man!! On a a more serious note, I really enjoyed watching and learning.
I cant wait for the follow-up of this cutting and continuations of the clipping and shaping of this tree. I can imagine the finishing shape of this early design.
An exquisite tree in two years, as you say! I can see it. I hope you will keep us abreast of the tree’s development in your design. This is fascinating work that you do. I hope good success in your progress, your good health, and every good blessing!
This tree has such an intriguing shape that I'd find really difficult to choose the orientation to keep. I think also the slanted one at 7:00 would be a nice one, with the apex guided to grow along that direction
I really enjoyed watching this UA-cam. I fear friend of mine was very into Bonsai's. Unfortunately he has now passed away and your channel is both educational and heartwarming for me. Whilst I won't be taking up the hobby (I am a keen tea drinker using Gongfu) I will continue to take interest in your channel. Thank you, Philip
A very nice tree Ive been growing pre bonsai for the last 6-7 years although have had bonsai on and off since the 1980’s . A real artform , youtube tutorials like this really help me and others
Thank you for your teachings. My Bonsai journey has just begun and your wisdom and interpretation of form of the tree has inspired me! Look forward to the next video!
Majesty in work! I started learning Bonsai in leadership school in the military (90's)...teaches not only patience, but how to plan across generations while being responsible for someone/thing besides yourself. Your collection is stunning! While junipers are amazing, I find fruit and other deciduous trees to be very rewarding (cherry, crabapple, walnut, and cedars!)
Sir, I know nothing of Bonsai. I do have a page dedicated to them on my Pinterest. But, that tree, Sir, is masterful. Absolutely gorgeous. I am in awe and I thank you for sharing
This is the first bonsai video I've watched, and my first introduction to the art. I was mesmerized, scared, and nervous all at the same time! lol. My impulse was to treat something 300+ years old as very fragile, but you obviously know what you are doing and have tremendous skill. Thanks for sharing!
Hi from New Zealand. You are a very clever man. The tree looked very scruffy before you gave it some serious attention and now it looks amazing. It is a wish of mine to own a bonsai tree but they are very expensive here. I think our native kowhai tree would be awesome done as bonsai. Thank you for your video. 🙏
My first time watching and I’m satisfied. I’ve always wanted to do what you’re doing sir. So relaxing and satisfying. To nurture and watch the bonsai grow into the shape that you have done is wonderful. Thank you
Sir!, thank you for this opportunity see this operation how that work! Tree is so beautiful!! and all this idea living"working" with these trees is so beatiful nature! All this old japanese philosofia is down to earth typic living is so beatiful!! Everypody needs to be take this they own and rispect nature and everything! Thank you again!! This!! Long lasting life i wish for you Sir!!👌👍☺️✌️🙏☀️✴️🇫🇮🍀❤
I recently repotted my buddy bonsai with my inlaw, learnt more and looks better than when I first potted in a bonsai course 7 years ago, the teacher helped pot it too deep. The soil was too dry and struggling to survive after our hot summer😊
That was super awesome. I remember enjoying bonsai thru old books and college greenhouses prior to the UA-cam days. I’ve never seen an old tree moved and worked on like this before. Hearing the owner speak and manipulate the branches as he was working. Showing ideas and imagining the future. It really was very awesome to see. And as the highway outside my house fills the air with the sounds of weekend traffic, it was nice to hear the birds chirping in this video. To get a shared sense of peace. Thank you.
I loved the way you attacked those roots. That trunk is amazing, she will turn out beautiful! I much prefer Pumice over Perlite, It's more expensive, but well worth the price. Thank you so much.
Most kind Sir, thank you for sharing your live and commitment to this beautiful art. So very inspiring to me and to my daughter who shared this with me. I do not know yhe art well from your perspective; but i habe long admired the beauty of all things 'bonsai'. Many blessings to you! Sincerely, Dawn Wang ❤
Beautiful! Horticultural is my true passion. It's the class I got an 125% in school. It's what I wanted to do as a profession. That was until my mom told me I'd never make any money in it and couldnt do it for a living. With that I lost all interest in it and all ambition. I do love watching other ppl love it.
I enjoyed this video so much and am so glad I found this channel. You are an excellent teacher. I discovered bonsai as a child while looking at a book on Japanese art (I love Hokusai). Longwood Gardens has a wonderful collection. I’m no longer physically able to visit them but I can see my favorite trees in my mind. They now have a collection of azaleas as bonsai, which I haven’t seen in person, but the pictures of them in bloom are breathtaking. When I was able to garden I always used fish product to feed my plants. People would on his lunch my gardens were and I’m quite sure the fish fertilizer was the reason…and of course, talking to them!
Enjoyed your tutorial. Very beautiful specimen. My thoughts are that it could have been a longer pot and in the future adding one or two smaller trees under it. Final thought would be to put it in the ground elevated above a koi pond.
Just a Master ,Sir! Love. I look forward to watching this Anvient One grow and become even more beautiful and inspirational under your care. Thank you so much goyr shareung your talent and Wisdom of this Ancient Art of Bonsai! 🙏💚🌱
Absolutely beautiful, I have just started my Bonsai learning, I like to say to friends, I'm getting on my Bonsai. That tree is, glorious, wow the way you fashioned the tree is remarkable. For one, to find art like that in the wild is wonderful. Beautiful Bonsai. Dave.
Such beautiful work, I am no bonsai expert but I find the way you shape those trees absolutely stunning. Thank you Sir and may yo bring more beauty to the world for many ,many years to come.
I just subscribed sir! Love your style of work. You have your own style as do I with my own art. My art professor once told me after I learn the principles, then break all the rules I want to make something meaningful. I dig it sir.
Wow, I could not believe the saw was being used to cut away the roots like that. Even in the beginning just tipping it on its side I would be scared something would break or snap on the plant. It looks great like a piece of art.
Hey Mister Bonsai :D That Juniper looks gorgeous, especially on the two outer sides where the tree rotates so beautifully and the depth is very nice to see.
it would have been pretty to see that trunk drop bellow the pot and the tree straightened up. I found surprising the angle that you choosed but also I liked it very much too. looking forward to see the result when it will be ready to be shared. all respect
So incredible. Amazing design and inspiration. I am going to be attempting bonsai with some Texas Red Oak. Very fast growing so will need all the pointers I can get. Glad I have found this channel!
Thank you for the most interesting video. This is the first time visiting your channel 😊 I look forward to seeing the California Juniper’s growth From Bev in South Africa
❤The beauty of the cypress brought tears to my eyes and reminds me these are gifts from G-D, and I thank him. Your work is astoundingly gifted. Thank you.
"The old folks would cringe" This gentleman is a 25 year old at heart. Love this guy.
Ahhh, the skilful use of the traditional Japanese reciprocating saw.
Don't worry it's a clockwork model...🫢
I was saying its a Makita so no harm was done to the purists lol
Hai! though i would have used a Makita.
Hahaha glad he didn’t use Milwaukee

I love the casual "why not" approach as opposed to the more clinical approach I see a lot of other people take. It feels more confident.

needet to rewind itt like 10 times so i was sure, even put caption on. still cant believe it
if old folks cringe at soil they will faint at electric saw
Everytime I've seen someone transplant: "Make sure you're careful not to damage the roots."
Bonsai Heirloom: "So I grabbed my reciprocal saw..."
Its actually better to tear up with the root ball a little bit it encourages the roots to grow out more.

Just gotta wait another 2 years
You picked the perfect angle for it! As soon as you moved it into that position I thought "YES, that's it!" ... it looks so cool like that.
It is the first time that I see your show. You explain everything so well that I feel like I could try this for myself. Thank you.

I don't have the artistic vision needed to practice this art, but its fun to watch those who do.
You can do it!

Sounds like you should have a pretty good collection of bonsai by now!
I have a few although they are all native species, I enjoy the little trees.
Even with your demystifying explanations of your thinking about this amazing 300- to 500-year-old juniper survivor I am still amazed. Thank you.
