Would you please publish a quick update of this root over rock project ? I think after 2 years, this must have evolved quite interestingly.
i like that yall didnt edit out the thinking phase. thats an important step to making sure you are confident in what you want. also i agree its better to have it look like it got knocked down in a storm.
Thanks Jerome for this video 🎥🎥🎥
My pleasure!
Excellent video ..I learned lot of things about root over rock..
This and water is peaceful and relaxing
"Looks a little more GNARLY.." KILLED ME JEROME XD GOOD WORK!
Thanks for sharing this video . I really loves bonsai tress. Especially the adenium plants. Good job. God bless you
Thanks a lot
Great workshop you got there friend..
Thank you! Cheers!
I bought a bonsai that apparently is ready to be planted on a rock. It’s got some type of cloth on it right now. I hope it works. Much appreciated
That sounds like burlap which can be used to do root over rock. Make sure you don't remove it too early.

Ok, thanks for your great work.
Nice job 👍. Can you make a video about which trees are best for bonsai cultivation with pros and cons and tricks.
Excellent BONSAI ART
Great instructional video. Thanks Jerome.
As much as I enjoy watching you work on your more established trees it’s really helpful to view videos like this. Thanks

Salam seko indonesia mas pembonsai
Very specific with details. 😊
Thank you for the info. Great video.
Great instructional video mate. Here in Australia we can get away with doing it in any season, depending where you live.
I have a small forest of Ficus Figs that I inadvertently obtained by sticking in branches of the Ficus Fig in a pot whilst pruning. I may try this on them.
Thanks for another great instructional video. Love the "blown-over" position for its dramatic effect. As a bonsai "newbie" . You give me courage to grow my abilities.
Thank you Michael for your kind words! The only way to learn is to try :)
Wow ....beautiful
Aquarium stores area good source of rock
Beautiful!!!
thank you for sharing the video, very interesting, quite entertaining 🙏🙏
Looking great, can we expect an update on how it’s taken to the rock?
Hey Warren, this composition was sold shortly after the video was released.
Intresting job....
Now i know how to make bonsai on the rock, thank you so much sir
Brilliant and very informative....thanks for sharing.
Intresting job. I love. I hope you owe us in a few months the evolution of the tree.
Affection from Paraguay
Thanks for the video!!
Do you think it’s possible to make such an arrangement with a rock and bury it under the soil in a deep pot so that it grows over it? I live somewhere very hot and dry, no moss grows here and my bonsai is a buttonwood.
Love this. Never tried root over rock, but come spring here in the UK it is definite project for me to attempt if I can find the right rock.
Glad i found this video
Beautiful, thanks🌹🙏🌹
I find use saran wrap works great to not only hold the tree to the rock, but also to hold the moisture in the soil.
Jaclyn Soileau that’s a good method, you can also burry the rock.
I'd love to see more videos on other types of trees using this technique. Could it be used on a Cyprus Hinoki? I have a small one, about a year old; how many years should I wait to apply this technique if I could do so?
Fennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnntttaaaaastikkkkkkkkkkkk Mate , can I know why is the water connected to each Bonsai in the back , & the water overflowing ...... Thank you .
I do the same with bonsai where i have to picture a "story" in my mind of how it would have grown like that in full scale in the wild. it's more artistic than following strict bonsai style techniques
. .
Beautiful work, thanks for sharing!
I have had two trees wrapped for a year and they are showing signs of new growth👏🏼 Do you happen to have a video of what you do when you unwrap the tree? Or any pointers? I just want to make sure I’m not missing anything. Thanks! 😊
I should mention, they’ve been wrapped for one year now.
Hey Ilya, I am in the process of making a video of what to do after the roots have been wrapped. Stay tuned 🙂
We are The Bonsai Supply Great! Thanks very much for getting back to me. I’ll keep my eyes open for your video. 👍🏼
Amazing videos! hi from México
Glad you like them!
@@WeareTheBonsaiSupply
Great... Very helpful...
Thank you Atula!
I've never Bonsai'ed before. (is that a word?) But, I certainly learned by watching the process. GREAT explanation along the way and loved how you considered the story line of a possible storm blowing the tree against the rock! It was a dark stormy night......
BRAVO!!
Thanks for watching!
Wow buddy ...amazing !🇱🇰
Thanks! 😃
Very nice
Great video
Cool job
Thanks
Thanks. Great video, well presented. 👌✨👍
Glad you liked it!
Wow super
Nice Video.
Can please make video on how to fertilize Bonsai plant. Thanks
Very nice...
I usually plant the tree and the rock into a deep container and expose the root gradually. So I am curiously looking for updates on this one. Thanks!
Hey Basti, I like to do the same especially on trees that don't attach to the rock easy like a buttonwood for instance!
Could you share an update when the try is approx 1 year in training?
Great tree btw!
Like now :)
V.fine leson Thanks
Wow so nice I like that 🤗😶❤🙌
Goddd amazingly beautiful and the demostrator too 😉
greetings one hobby (bonsai lovers) from Indonesian 🙏🙏
Wow. Very cool.and creative
I notice a couple cables going inside the trees on the background, are those a pair of “sensors”and auto watering mechanism ?
Great gob 😊😊😍
Nice work
just wondering how the tree ends up after romoval of the moss? does it take a year or more before it can grow without the moss? looks great btw
Hi, it depends on specie and climate but the moss was removed about a year after and it was growing well on its own.
Awesome👏👏👌
awesome. I found an incredible location for root over rock - rocks how would you suggest I sell my rocks to others. Amazing limestone rocks with great cavities and weathering.
If you still can I would like to purchase one
Nice
Awesome
How’s the tree after 1 year plus on the rock?
That's so true, here in Florida it's hit or miss with good rocks. If you find them it's best to snag them, I have a rock yard walking distance from me thankfully.
I'd like to try ROR with some of my desert trees (bursera, Boswellia, commiphora).
Good ol Michigan does not have this problem lol
Hi. Love your channel. I have made a root over rock and for last two years the roots have not attached themselves with the rock. They just keep growing around the rock. Can you advise what's wrong? Thanks
Hey there, Jerome! I would love to see what this tree looks like now! Where could I go to follow this tree’s progress?
Hey Justin, this tree sold immediately after the video came out as many of our trees do. One of my employees did a home visit at the owners home and said it has grown a lot. Ill try to get a picture next time and show the update.
Nice technique, thank for sharing your video. From @Pantomanok tv.
Hi ... what is the T shirt size . .. and i like to buy this item ..
Hi Trojan, you can buy it right here on UA-cam.
I see at the end of video you have some small ponytail palms. I have one that is 4 foot and it keeps growing babies out of the trunk,I cut them and try to grow in cactus soil . Is this the proper way to do that to get more?
Yes, Spring is usually the best time to do that.
@@WeareTheBonsaiSupply thank you
Jerome your videos are great. Informative and entertaining! Thank you very much for them!
Thank you Stepan for enjoying them and your feedback!
Beautiful arrangement of the tree on the rock and the pot. Well balanced picture. Great! Will you at some stage think of shortening the tree by removing the top part?
Hey, thank you for your kind words! Yes I will shorten the tree once the roots have attached to the rock! For now I will let the tree grow pretty freely
Great.👍
I like it...
Can we get an updated picture of this tree??
Great Bonsai♥️♥️♥️♥️
very good,,,,,,,,,
Thanks Jerome. I will learn your way to do with my the ficus. :)
Đại Lâm Mộc Ficus do great with this technique 🌳🙌 Great choice!
Please I need some clay bonsai pots . I didnt getting it in india. I need landscape bonsai pots. Where can I get it please.🥺🥺
Thks for sharing Dear Friend!
So would you wrap that root ball in plastic to retain moisture or not? oh and why the gloves for moss handling?
Sphagnum moss can potentially harbor the fungi, Sporothrix schenckii, which can cause the chronic disease sporotrichosis, when spores enter the skin through abrasions, scratches, or small wounds. It is good practice to wear gloves when handling Sphagnum Moss.
GREAT JOB. THANK YOU.
How will the tree cling to the rock after the wire? I would be amazed if this tree is still alive today.
Hi Ryan, as the new roots start to grow, they grow along the rock, and as they thicken they will attach and then eventually fuse. The tree is still alive and is doing great.
Hi Jerome. I love this video and can’t wait to try it with one of my Adeniums. Should I wait until Spring?
geri jackson Hey Geri, thank you so much for your kind words. Yes I would wait till late spring when it starts to get hot 🥵
Really awesome video. Your explanation is superb.
Thank you very much Kolli
So young but sooooo skilled, wooow
I just have a question sir. Is your soil just stone? Or it has garden soil ? Thanks
Joseph Jake C. Lepiten Jr. hey Joseph, our soil is made from 4 aggregates, pine bark, lava, pumice , and clay. Garden soil is not good for container grown plants as it stores water too long, compacts the roots and doesn’t allow for air to enter the root system.

Plzz tell me what is name of this rock
Hello Jerome, can you post an update on this tree?
So I did a root over rock not to long ago how moist should I keep the moss and for how long should I leave it on for.
Justin Brown hey Justin, it depends on the species in terms of how long you should Leave the moss on and how moist. If it is an elm, they like it fairly moist. Keep in mind the longer you keep the moss the better roots you will have. One year at least
@@WeareTheBonsaiSupply it's a persian silk (mimosa) the plant I have grown from a seed it's about 5 years, I have done some small root trims on them over the years, untangled the roots every other year, the roots were about 4 feet lol some already were sticking out of the pot and had naturally dried and started barking, those I wrapped around the rock almost completely, then there was several other long ones that I dropped down the sides of the rock into about 3 inches of dirt and clay, stone soil
I went to the keys in Florida and I went to a beach when it was low tide and I saw and took many nice and big rocks for bonsais. Ima have to wash them tho cuz they probably salty
Any update video on this tree?
thanks for the info! do you ever remove the moss?
Hey Joel! Yes, once the tree is growing strong. the longer you leave the moss in place the more roots you will have growing on the rock.
Likes Air Supply
Nice name channel
Liked already 😁👌
Where do you get your pots from???
That’s awesome & that’s awesome & thant’s awesome.

I'm learning so much! Thank you
How often you need to water it.
Hi Adela, It really depends on climate and soil media. If you use our soil you can water daily during the growing season.
