Nigel, I must say I appreciate seeing how much you care for your bonsai. Too many people on UA-cam use methods that seem violent, you can tell they do not care for their plants, they only care about the end result and having the tree look exactly what they pictured. I love your energy, don’t ever change
Awesome! Cathedral style really visible now....stunning! Updates looking good too and so does the orchard, plantroom and truck. Thanks Nigel, really enjoyed myself again. 💖😊👍💖
Before pruning, there is a very mysterious feeling It’s refreshing after trimming, it will soon return to mystery^^ and every moss is so beautiful under the tree.
Nice watching your Avatar Forest evolve. And your yellow hibiscus is budding and flowering generously. Have you ever thought of taking a time lapse video of a bud coming into full flower and perhaps beyond? I'm sure it would be beautiful to watch. Thanks for sharing your bonsai and seasons of growth and care. The Bonsai Zone has been a renewing escape this spring and summer.
How well u hav worked on this foreat & explained so nicely in this vedio as always, I really love ur way of doing these vedios, thanks for sharing this work 👍👍
Love your vids Nigel. I appreciate that you show us what your doing and explain why. Allot of folks don’t, they just do it and don’t tell us why. Waiting to see you Eat some more baby jade leaves.👍😁😋
Wonderful! Still love that forest! The work you are doing at the community gardens is invaluable. It will improve future lives. The plant room will be solid for the rest of your lifetime, great work!
Hi Nigel!! 👋👩🦳️👋 I think the work you're doing on your Thuja forest is looking absolutely fabulous !! Maybe since you ripped that one branch down, you should have one or two more? I don't know for sure, just a thought. Will your branches automatically start growing more vertically or will you attach a tubing covered wire to the tops of the branches and pull them in towards the trunk? Not wire wrapping them, just giving them a more natural curve to the vertical position. I know you want to keep it a clip and grow, but I'm concerned that they might need some help. 🤔👍🙂 I only saw this next item once on a video so I don't have a name or a manufacturer, but I want to share it anyway. You know how treadmill belts work, I'm sure, this was a treadmill for the back of pickup trucks, and I believe it is motor-driven. It fits between wheel wells, so you would have to deal with those areas, but you can load the back of your truck with substances like bark dust or dirt. Then by turning the motor on, you can use it to dump the back of the pick-up out. Also, I don't remember there being a speed control, but you could just start and stop it as needed. I don't know if you would be interested in something like this, but I did want to share it with you. I love watching you and listening to you explain your thoughts. You are so inspiring to me, although I also use wire, and so much of what you say still applies. 😉🙃😉 Thank you, thank you, thank you!! 💛💜❤️️💙🧡 God bless and have a great week!!
I think the cathedral style is pretty interesting for a solitair tree. Bit I fear it won't fit into a forest like this. In a forest for me it's more about the overall shape and not as much about the individual styling of each tree.
The plant room seems to have a moisture problem. Was that from watering the trees? Could you use shallow trays under the trees, if so? Or maybe the roof was leaking. . ?
I don't mean to steal Nigels thunder but I think this has been in cultivation as this forest for 4 years or so. But I believe at least some of those trees were being cultivated as bonsai individually before being put into this composition.
@@dk2614 I also think so, it must be difficult to combine one tree with another tree..hmm, Nigel, you are amazing. thank you for sharing the answer, D K 👍😀
Beautiful forest Nigel! I would like to work my way up to a forest. One step at a time haha. Currently growing a few trees found here in Hawaii from seeds. What are your thoughts on rainbow eucalyptus for bonsai?
Hi, do you have videos of the sophora prostrata bonsai that is visible around 28min in the video? Would like to hear your thoughts about it but can't seem to find a playlist dedicated to it!
The Thuja Occidentalis has always mystified me when it comes to pruning. Less is definitely more. Thanks, I have one as a garden tree which I will extract next spring with a little more confidence. Thanks Nigel.
Robin went feral. Nigel was explaining in a prior video that he had learned that the young Robin would likely be taught by other Robin's. Then one day Robin stopped coming back...
Man your hair is developing into the most beautiful bonsai of all 🌱

The irony is in close knit bonsai circles they consider nigel to be quite violent
I find that hard to believe
All that work made such a huge difference! Cant wait for part 3!
I loved the update Nigel you rock ,
Awesome! Cathedral style really visible now....stunning! Updates looking good too and so does the orchard, plantroom and truck. Thanks Nigel, really enjoyed myself again. 💖😊👍💖
Not usually a big fan of group plantings but your forests are amazing. Love them.
You are simply great🙏🙏
You're the Bob Ross of bonsai Nigel :)
Очень красиво! Very beautiful
I love that main cedar tree
My favorite part is the lower trunk
Before pruning, there is a very mysterious feeling

Forest looks great. After all. You are the artist.
Enjoying the music
Great work Nigel! Every time I see your cedar avatar grove it looks more stunning and more lifelike.
That was some brave work Nigel well done mate. Not easy doing new things on trees you've cultivated so well for such a long time
You have a fantastic attention to detail!
Great work Nigel trees looking great! 👌🤘

Your Forrest is looking Great Nigel . I have started a Benjamin ficus Forrest i can’t wait to see its development. 😀
Looks amazing wow
Glad to see your plant rooms coming along good and cant wait to see the new hubcaps 👍

nice avatar grove 👍🏻
Hi! Nigel, watching your works and enjoyed as always.
The group looks great. A very nice design.
mate your videos got to be the best on yt
Nice collection
So THATS what a bonsai zone its
Great video, like always. Cheers
Amazing Nigel how this forest is progressin! It is also interesting to hear how you explain your reasons in details on every decision you make.
I wish mine turned out that nice... that looks amazing my friend.
They have a tar caulk. Maybe that would work for the bottom gaps in the plant room.

Great video and updates. Thanks
What’s the update on your greenhouse?
Thanks
I think the cathedral style is pretty interesting for a solitair tree. Bit I fear it won't fit into a forest like this. In a forest for me it's more about the overall shape and not as much about the individual styling of each tree.
The avatar grove is looking better and better! I like the truck up dates at the end, how’s the big green house going?
The plant room seems to have a moisture problem. Was that from watering the trees? Could you use shallow trays under the trees, if so? Or maybe the roof was leaking. . ?
Nice bonsai♪
I’m guessing the greenhouse has been put on hold? You are such a busy bee!
trees looked great , now about that trick time for a new truck too much rust
like bonsai 🌿🍀☘🌳🌵🌴🌱👌☺😎sir👑
hi Nigel..i watched this video in a noisy place🙏😁
how long did you take to make this beautiful bonsai?

Beautiful forest Nigel! I would like to work my way up to a forest. One step at a time haha. Currently growing a few trees found here in Hawaii from seeds. What are your thoughts on rainbow eucalyptus for bonsai?
i think you should put something over the red paint to protect it from sun and chipping like a clear coat thing
Great
Hi, do you have videos of the sophora prostrata bonsai that is visible around 28min in the video? Would like to hear your thoughts about it but can't seem to find a playlist dedicated to it!
I think it is a different plant, I think you are seeing the wild Chamomile, it looks very similar!
You are one man army.
Do you provide your trees for weddings, birthdays etc.?
No, it's just a hobby for me!
18:05 wood sprite flyes in :D
My Avatar moment, the forest is blessed!
what type of pine is that big one on video?
Hello sir you are a good one
did i spy a suzuki esteem wagon? one of my dads fav prior hitboxes
Yes you did! That was my dad's car, we are using it for a winter beater until it dies, it's a 2000 and has hauled a lot of stuff!
@@TheBonsaiZone legendary vehicle. I like the samurai by them as well

Robin went feral. Nigel was explaining in a prior video that he had learned that the young Robin would likely be taught by other Robin's. Then one day Robin stopped coming back...
I missed the Premier :( :( :(
This guy can prune everything except his hair
hello :)
First
Foist
Thanks for the content nigel. Can't wait for the next video. In the time being, lots of episodes to watch on the play list.
