Thanks for your support! For the entire Bonsai-U backlog or to donate, please visit bjornbjorholm.com/bonsai-u/
Thank you for the videos Bjorn. I started learning in depth Bonsai techniques and practices just recently. I have purchased a few simple starters (Windswept Juniper, Schefflera, willow and I have maple seeds of all sorts germinating. What books do you recommend for really learning pruning?
Great demo at 72 it’s great to see how my trees can be improved
one of the best videos I have seen on Bonsai yet! Now I'm eagerly waiting for part 2!!!
Thanks for doing videos on smaller trees! Enjoying the Bonsai-U format, please keep it up!
Love it Bjorn. So relieved to see the attitude of not being overly worried of style off the get go. Something I do too often. Very big help.
Yes new video!
Love your work- very talented bonsai master.
Thanks Bjorn! I have followed your classes on bonsai empire but the Bonsai U videos seem less stiff and thus much easier to follow and learn from. Thanks for making this available at no cost to us the viewers, but even if you were to charge, I would gladly sign up.
For someone who is doing bonsai and bonsai vlog here in the Philippines, It is always an inspiration watching your video, as you generously explain the details of what you do. Your mastery of the material that you are using is very impressive explaining things like the origin of the materials even the plants growth as the season change, what to avoid so the material wont stop growing.
But what i find most impressive is the hope you put to the growth of your tree and what it would look like in the years to come after wiring them.
"Not making an S shape but odd contorted movement"
I wish to have my very own shimpaku and train them with your videos as guide,..
Hope you will be in the country by 2021, it would be nice to see you in person and watch you work on a bonsai tree.
thanks for sharing man, so professional and very well performed
Many thanks Bjorn for an excellent video; you are a very talented instructor.
Well done! Beautiful finish, the form you went with is lovely.
So, was listening to a podcast the other day and well, you said you were the only one basically caring for your garden and all that. If you ever want your 1st apprentice, im definitly not far away. (In a way im joking lol but also, it will likely never happen lol but would be the greatest opportunity for me ever!...especially being so close!) Spring is coming up fast here in TN and me and my son are going to join the NBS this year finally. He loves bonsai already and I love that. Loved the video btw and it wasnt even till about a year ago that I was interested in junipers and even pines. For the longest, in my opinion, they were soooo over used in the bonsai world and just seen to many that always looked the same in ways. Honestly ive been a part of Mirai Live (with Ryan Niel) for close to 1.5yrs and in that time I found myself being really drawn to pines especially and in the past few months, junipers. Videos like this, although ive seen this b4 lol, are great for someone in my position as ill probably never have access to great material but can make my own essentially. Looking forward to seeing part 2 and all the other videos. My son says hello and again is saying when we come visit the garden (in due time) he has to see that juniper...the RMJ behind you. He loves that one which is odd cuz he normally gravitates towards the winter silhouette of deciduous. Anyway thanks for your time reading this. Ill be glad when all the rain is over here!
So easy like that,...!!!
Can I ask you something:
Could you use another color of background jacket, to be able yo apreciate the work?. Again, thank you..!!!!
hi i want to thank you for all your advices, I learned a lot here from Brazil. Keep up with the good work.
Thank you for this video Bjorn.
This is the stage of bonsai in which I reside.
... as it is very hard to find anything but stock like this from local greenhouses in Alberta. And our Winter is a KILLER! ha ha...
Really looking forward to meet you. ASPAC 2021.
First time finding your channel and you seem very informative, thanks for the content
Thank you very much for making this video! The growing season is coming, I hope you have a good one! Bonsai4life!
Thanks Bjorn....very informative.
I would devour 10 more of these videos in one sitting
Tetap semangat untuk berkarya

Shohin YES!
nice one. I have a small needle juniper from seed which I kinda bent in a similar fashion last year, and I wasn't really sure how to progress it until now! thanks a lot. love your videos and explanations.
Thank you so much for making these videos! You are so generous for sharing this information for free. I hope to own and care for my own bonsai some day (hopefully from Eisei-en😃). And these videos will be instrumental in giving me the confidence to do it. They are some of the most thorough and informative on UA-cam! Best of luck with everything you are doing✌
Great video!! Thank you.
thank you for the course
I am hopeful to meet you when you come to Atlanta this year! Your videos are really great and your knowledge of bonsai is impressive
Azaleas cuttings and Ume cuttings too please ✨✨
And why not cuttings of Chaenomeles/Quince, Pomegranate, Seiju Chinese Elm, Acer Palmatum/J-Maples too please :D
Selalu riang melihat videomu Bjorn. Thanks!!
thanks very much! brilliant foliage & design info; brilliant work . . . Peace
Great demo
greatvid
Awesome
Brilliant vídeo😎
Awesome Video Bjorn! I actually have about 20 Itoigawa cuttings myself that I was planning on doing this exact technique on but could never find an article or video on how to do it properly, so thanks a ton! I just recently wired some 2-3 year old broad-leaf evergreens and some deciduous trees for my own bonsai channel you can find those videos by searching “Seedling Wiring Workshop”!
Oh I also forget to mention that I show a neat trick for finding the correct size of wire for wiring trees in the videos I uploaded, however, the quality is really low do to bad lighting on part 1 and part 2, part 3 is ok and you can kinda see it on part 4(the last tree I did)
You've mentioned air pots and net pots in your video. Would you share more on them as well as on the development of bonsai material in general? Thanks.
Bjorn, in the video you added single wires to each trunk but, I notice that after you wired the branches and came back, the trunk was double wired, at least at the base. Did you double-wire the entire trunk and main branch? It would have been nice to see that also.
nice tutorial.
i want to try the airpot do we just put the collander on the bench or do we let roots feed into the ground eventually?
do i understand correctly that you leave the wire on there for about two years? any issues with wire scars?
love it!
👍👌
I just got a 2 needles pine from a local owner, it was used as a xmas tree. It is pot bound 10 ft tall.
Can I prune it this time of the year just to get that taper look on it's base? I am located in california
Do you sell cuttings of the bigger one? I was just talking about this type a week ago and I'm interested in get one to plant in the ground.
Go to a garden center
Great information. Please wear white or light colours so that we can see the plant you're holding.
Where in the US could I get itoigawa shimpaku? Ive been looking how to import but I cant find anything on that either.
You could find it at a local bonsai nursery
Great work, i rly love your work cause u'r my favorite bonsai master but.. you speak so fast!! can you considerate to make ITvideos version in spanish with Rafa or another mate??
Thanks you for your work and for help to start in this art to the new generation!
Use the “playback speed” function of UA-cam to slowdown the video maybe together with the close caption. On a small device you can find it by clicking on the there dots on the top right of the video.
Question I live in Philadelphia and during the winters which can be very cold. How do you recommend I store my bonsai's in the winter. No shed or colds rooms. Just a yard, I had a shimpaku and I thought if I planted the pot in a larger pot it would survive but nope. can you give me some tips or advice on keeping my plants alive during the winter.

This video might help
Thanks for this & all your incredibly helpful Bonsai videos!!
I did my first attempt at wiring last winter on a Juniper (Nana I think) & killed a couple of the main branches. The wire cut into them a fair bit & I thought I must have twisted & bent them too much, causing the wire to tighten. Seeing you go to work on this Shimpaku has me scratching my head about what I did wrong - any thoughts? 🤔
By last winter you mean a year ago? Wire is meant to be left in place only the time it takes to set the branch (some months but it depends on the species). Branches grow and it’s normal for the wire (which doesn’t expand) to bite into the wood if not removed promptly. I don’t know if I understood your problem correctly but I hope this helps. Cheers.
@@pansepot1490 Thanks for your reply Pat. I don't think I left the wire on too long, but maybe. I noticed the branches had died about 2-3 months after wiring. I removed the wire in case other parts of the tree were damaged so the wire was only on there for about 3 months I would say. The foliage had turned brown & dry. One of the branches was the main trunk (it was becoming a semi-cascade style tree) but interestingly, it was only one section of the trunk (& the same on one or two other branches) which died. The rest of the tree was & is still doing fine (as far as I'm able to tell in my inexperience).
I'm now doing some structural pruning to reduce some over growth on one side of the tree & also to try to figure out how to style it now I've lost my apex & general idea I had this time last year.
Where does the silver driftwood/aged wood come from and how does it get wired into bonsai? (Or even the other colours of wood?)
Crystal M it’s not wired in, it’s part of the tree
How prune the root of juniper
Could you do a vid like this with scots pines please? If you're looking for suggestions :)
Scots pine as a shohin ?
If you want to make a shohin size pine tree try Austrian black pine , it's basically a European twin of Japanese black pine behaves the same way. Generally Scots pine are not used for shohin bonsai or atleast I haven't seen one. Hope it helps
Nice video, but my old eyes have a hard time seeing your work with the camouflage shirt.
"definitely do not pinch the foliage on a juniper". you should have mentioned this before I killed mine.
Bhai tere pas shimpaku juniper tha?
Just a few minutes ago I was asking where you were based having now looked at several of your videos I realised you are based in the USA their good fortune and UK's Loss, we can't win them all at least we got away from Europe's clutches.
Bro, guess what happens if you have a bush in front of you while wearing camouflage...
subtitles????!!!!!
Newbe here. I've been watching video's on mame bonsia. Not a category?
