    Always nice to see young trees to bonsai shows. If they have only hi-end trees my eyes produce sparkles but i will never have the chance to make one like that.at least in this lifetime.so watching more "down to earth trees" makes me wanna give it a try!!!thank you for sharing with us!!😊😊

    That was an amazing variety of perspectives on Bonsai! Everyone seemed to understand and apply "traditional" bonsai theory, without being bound by it, and the sheer variety of artistic ideas made this maybe my favorite ahow you've been to! In the bigger shows, it seems most people wait until their tree looks perfect, i.e. traditional, but in this one no one was afraid to show off their creativity.

    I really enjoyed your video of the show!! Thank you for all the close ups and telling of the species of the trees!! I am a beginner and it was amazing to know what I was looking at. So many show videos do not state what tree they are showing, so it was very nice that you did. Thank you!

    Oh wow! This show, although you said is busy. Didn't look and crowded or overwhelming as most other shows! Thank you so much for filming! Jay complemented your show with wonderful still photos. He sure has a talent for stills! There were a few cool trees there that I might just add to my "List" LOL... There were some really neat viewing stones there.

      Excuse me mister, are you the guy who made the tree stand we see on jade tree at 00:20:45 ? If so, are you seeling some tree stands ??? can we see you live or something ? And btw the color of the pot and the ground are perfect, it's just art ! ( the jade is good looking too but the ground /pot / stand is breathe taking )

      Hi there, thank you so much for the nice comments! Yes, I did make the stands, but I haven't gotten to the point of selling any yet. Maybe by the next show?! As for seeing me live, I don't have a UA-cam channel or anything, but Nigel was nice enough to work on some trees with my wife and I.... here's his playlist of our videos: ua-cam.com/play/PLQouTWwmTQowe41xdAEhA1uIbqy2-Tb4J.html&si=tb_H5UtGRLps26oE

    You do such a good time when you are filming in the bonsai shows.
    I think it's cool to see trees in training on shows. Just don't show winners all the time.
    Thanks, nigel! And congrats on the new pot. I think you have a tree in mind when you picked it. But I can not guess which tree your are putting in it?

    If you liked Jabuticaba, I have sent you some seeds a couple of years ago. They are viable for several years and they were freshly harvested from mine. 😉

    Hey Nigel, I asked a question on the Port forest video but I think it was too old to see. Can you let me know how often you water your Ports over the winter? They look so amazing so early in the season. Mine thrive outside all summer and then they fight to hang on all winter, but whatever you're doing is clearly working! What a great looking show! Your Ports showed up very well on display as usual!

    @carlossoares712 Місяць тому

    Yeah Nigel, you said jabuticaba just right
    This is a major specie on Brazil, and the actual name is plinia cauciflora not 'pinea', they got it wrong. but that is fine as they remembered our favorited specie
    YOU SHOULD HAVE A JABUTICABA
    i can send you some seeds from my tree but it is a quite slow growth and hard to clone specie so (0.08% cutting success rate) i think you and the Bonsai Zone deserve something more mature, anyways just let me know it you want some seeds so i find a way to send you
    but your pronounce is correct, it surprisingly correct :)
    Thanks for sharing the show with us

    • @thebrightsidepotteryandbonsai
      @thebrightsidepotteryandbonsai Місяць тому

      The really cool thing about the jaboticaba is that it blooms and bears fruit on its trunk and the surface of the branches. Apparently very common in Brazil where they press the fruit for juice.

    The "False Holly" Osmanthus heterophyllus is actually a Malpighia coccigera or Singapore holly.

    It's possible the plant listed at 6:24 is mislabeled. It shows Portulacaria Afra, however I believe it's a Crassula Undulatifolia

    • @alexanderzschiesche8363
      @alexanderzschiesche8363 Місяць тому

      Sure looks like some type of Crassula Arborescens variety
