Juniper Bonsai Development is often one of the most over looked techniques in Bonsai. Juniper Bonsai are one of the first trees many new bonsai enthusiasts purchase or receive as a gift but the work that comes next can often be confusing. In this video we share some simple tips while working on a tree currently in development at Bonsai-En.

Love these educational videos. The juniper you got are really awesome! Also credit to the spider at 25:29
Thank you for a brilliant demonstration that helps us to understand the art of development. Your son is such a lucky lad to have a great dad like you!
Happy new year Josh. Thanks for continuing to make these amazing videos! I'm just about to prune my juniper so this came at a perfect time.
I love your teaching. Please keep going! I'm learning so much
Outstanding video! Thank you for the instruction.
Thank You very much for Juniper bonsai training, much appreciate.
Please keep updating us on this tree's development!
Thanks for the video on development. Would love to see more.
Best bonsai video I have seen. Thank you
Thank you for a superb lesson. I hope we can follow it's development 👍👍
Great great vid explaining something I feel many growers are too scared to tackle. Love the vocab lesson in this vid too!
As always, your instructions and explanations are clear and easy to understand. Here in Oregon, Procumbens is about the only juniper available in most nurseries and mostly three-gallon containers and never larger.
Thank you! Your videos are always on point!
thank you very much
Very nice, much appreciated!
As usual very informative, I always learn something new watching these videos. Happy New Year!
You are a great teacher and by far the best tutorial ive found as of yet
Really like your vids . My bonsai learning curve .Has progressed from growing stuff for training . And collecting Yamadori . So next step will be this spring I truly have stuff ready and worth styling and starting to refine . So your more in depth instruction I find very informative
This is great. Please create more videos like this because a lot of us want to jump right into wiring and styling before we develop the tree. This was very informative and it was great to watch your thought process as you make decisions on which branches to cut and why. Thank you!
Happy new bonsai year!!
A very explanatory video and a very educational channel. Thank you very much from Malaga, Spain.
awesome video and explanation
Such an amazing ting you are doing for your little guy! I can't wait to see what this beauty develops into.
should turn out to be a hell of a tree after all those years!
Excellent work
Nice informative vid dude
I really enjoyed it
So much info and easy to understand thank you
Great video 👍Great Tree Josh
Thank you I just bought my little I'm learning a lot
Really good instruction
Aussie Dave here, awesome video Josh..🌲🤗👍🤗👍🤗
Thank you so much. I have been searching the internet far and wide for “prebonsai training and development” and could not find anything. I have some smaller junipers and I wasn’t sure what to do with them. I will let them grow for 3-4 years uninhibited and then this gives me EXACTLY the steps I need to prepare it for later refinement. Is there any work between the early pictures and the current tree that should be taken? I have basically wired some interesting shape and just keep it watered and fertilized.
Your channel is so under rated and I hope you get many more thousands of subscribers. Please follow this tree over the years so I can follow the process with mine.
Great video. I am starting to see the picture.
thank you for this bro
Thanks for a great presentation and explanation. I am completely new to this host but am looking at everything i can see. And i live in Sweden her we have about 10- out now so it`s not high season now:) I`ll send pictures when I make my first one :)
Wow Wonderful Bonsai ^^
Thank you for good sharing~

My friend, have a good day
i love bonsai
Nice work. Would you consider keeping some of those larger branches (thin out foliage to balance energy) as sacrificial branches to thicken the trunk and to create jins?
I just bought my first juniper, i would love a walk through session of how to trim it, this is a great video, im so nervous
Hay dear ,,, nice video Hapy new year 2022
I live in Canada and main interest is in Yamadori reflecting the harsh battle against the climate . As you know styling options can be a challenge . So the instruction is very useful
Fantastic lesson Josh, what was the soil used for this juniper? Also, I keep hearing, repot in a "slightly bigger pot, but not too big", to get a thicker tree. Yes, control will be lost in the ground, but what if I put a 10 inch juniper in a 10 gallon can?
Great video. You mentioned about continuous slip potting over a number of years, as required. Do you ever work the roots on a developing juniper?
i don't really ever work bottom roots, i do however try to lay out surface roots the best i can to create nebari over time.
Great video, with very clear information on where and why cuts are made. Was the tree somewhat S-shaped with wire in its first stage as a sapling?
hi davey, yes the tree was wired at a young age to begin putting shape in it, as the tree continues to grow and develop over the years that movement will slowly push out and become more subtle.
@@BonsaiEn I taught so! Looks quite nice being in this 'early stage' already though.
Happy new year!
I bought 2 little starter juniper a few weeks ago ,I wired the trunk into s shape ,on one I lost 3 branches i,n left more than I needed,so it's okay, what could I have done wrong , i didnt repot them ,learnt the hard way that died sadly,this demo has been so helpful, especially being in the same season,look forward to more videos.
bigger bends are better done in Autumn, only small adjustments in spring / summer as that's the active growing season and the inner layers of tissue ( cambium, phloem and xylem ) are easy to tear. You cant see this damage and usually it shows as dead branches.
I live on the equatorial belt...so when should i prune them? I have summer all year long...and our monsoon is around Aug till Nov
What soil mix do you recommend for junipers in development???
What time of the year is this Josh? When’s the best time of the year to do this kind of work?
How many gallons is that pot??? I have a juniper and it’s obviously mid summer but it definitely needs to be repotted but i don’t wanna do it now so it had a better chance to bounce back and succeed. I want to grow the truck of the tree pretty big like the one you got. Ideas??? Thoughts??? Thanks !
will this tree before it was pruned snd everyhting be considered to be in a bonsai stage or a pre bonsai stage
Ooohh look the spider …whom I assume the sack belongs to 😂 …he is dangling off the right side of the Tree 25:33
Thank you for this demostration, I’ve learned a lot, but one question….. the first branch of the tree …. Is this to much on the inside of the curve on the stem? Just a question…not a opinion 😅😅. You are a good teacher….
what fertilizer do you use during this process?
So Josh best time for large branch removal is mid summer or Autumn
Thank you
generally yes, especially for species that have high sap flow. if it is a pine or ficus generally mid autumn is best. things like junipers can be done as early as mid summer.
Hi, thanks for another great educational video . Can you purchase the online courses over in the UK ? Or are they for Australian viewers only? Thanks so much.
Hi, they are available over in the UK :) we have students from all over the world.
@@BonsaiEn that’s awesome … I feel a Christmas present to myself coming on !
What season is best to cut back like you are doing? Thanks
Autumn is the best time. you can also do a cut back late spring early summer if the tree had a strong flush.
Thanks for the great video!
I have always heard from other Bonsai artists that you should never cut more than 30% of a junipers foliage off at any given time or else you may risk killing your tree. Is that true?
This is a good guideline to follow but not a hard and fast rule, it all comes down to understanding your tree and understanding the horticulture. I've seen a juniper get 80% off its foliage removed to completely re structure the tree then it was put straight back out into full sun and it bounced back very strong. but once again the tree had been handled correctly and there was a full understanding of its health and strength.
Any update ?
Take a drink everytime he says Okay
After the development phase, should I need to remove all the soil in the root ball when moving the tree to a bonsai pot & use the proper bonsai soil?
not for a juniper no, you'll want to keep some of the original soil in the core and keep some roots un touched. we don't ever bare root junipers as they do not like it at all. when going into the bonsai pot only remove 30 - 50% of the root mass.
Thank you 👍
👍🍎
What’s in your teabag Josh?
"Okay"
Did he say step son 👀
Do you ever use the cuttings as new trees?
If you can get them to root, certainly.
Airlight should be a word.
Write to Webster's and let them know about my mumble jumble discovery haha.
Okay? 😅
Poor camera position. Put the camera higher, aim it at the pot over your shoulder. Much better angle. .
woah, is bonsai a good investment income? lol although im sure it takes a lot of time and money to put into it all those years tho
Its one of those things that grows in value each year rather then devaluating. The tree will be worth a good amount of money by the time he turns 18.
@@BonsaiEn wow that is amazing 👏🏻❤️
