Looks like an elven forest😇😇, wouldn't mind at all spending an entire morning having breakfast or meditate there.. Beautiful indeed Peter. Stay safe to all and can't wait for the next one.. cheers
I must say, Josh is clearly verry passionate and experienced! I can't help but notice how carefull, and precise his work is. He is so thoughtfull and agile! You truly have an amazing team of helpers, Peter!
So glad I watched this. I have two Japanese maples near the front of my house. I have been noticing some fairly large dead limbs....now I know why. It never occurred to me they needed pruning. Soon I will air layer some of the branches that need to come off and eventually plant them in the back yard. I love my maples. Yesterday I found 5 small volunteer seedlings and potted those. Thank you for this great video Peter. You are an amazing human being.
Hello Mr. Chan , i have come accross your channel two months ago and as they say i never looked back :) . I always loved nature ,as we all are part of it . I am a pssionate aquascaper meaning i love fresh wather planted aquariums . Never the less i was always passionated by gardening and forests . Your channel is for me ,one of the best learning and inspiering content . This is how this platform should be used for . I wached hours and hours of your video content and am excited when you post a new video . I wish you all the best and please stay healty !
Thanks for this video. This video helps me learn how to prune my regular size trees properly. It seems to be a lost art. Professional tree people would just pollard a tree, leaving large exposed and ugly cuts. They just chop to form a pom-pom look and then more branches sprout up in undesirable places. Your other bonsai videos show how to do taper or create a better look for large trees also. This is easier to see and to do pruning on bonsai trees. One never wastes what one learns. :) Thank you! Have a great day, Peter!
The Japanese have a word called 木漏れ日 _komorebi,_ which means something like the sunlight shining through the leaves of trees in a sort of philosophical sense. Looking through the maple leaves from below, I can understand why the Japanese came up with such a nice word. It's a really beautiful view.
I have enjoyed the work on pruning the maples, I have around 22 Japanese maples all in large pots. One of them has only two or three leaves on it

Not only beautiful piece of God's given heaven on earth but also full of our favorite trees. now let me ask you, from your years of experience which maple species is easier to air layer than the others. ? also wouldnt those branches could just root buy sticking them in the ground.. maybe? thank you peter for another wonderful video of yours , regards from Queens USA
Sorry I did not finish what I need to know it has a lot of small red buds should I cut back to the buds or just wait to see the out come. Any advice will be great fully received. Thank you in advance
Thanks for your great videos. I have a question with regards to the deshojo maple trees, what is the normal hight that they can grow? I´am looking for 2 trees to create shade durring the summer so the sun light will be blocked to enter a big window/facade from about 8mx7m facing west so my house will be cool but sunlight can enter the building to warm it up (I´am living in Portugal:)). The space I have between the building and my neigbour is only 3,8 meter so the tree has to be narrow. I love the Sugar maple trees but I ´am afraid that this tree is too big. The max hight of the tree has to be about 8-9 meters. What do you sugest? I love your deshojo tree that you have in front off your house. Thanks
Hallo Mister Chan. Thank you for another interesting and inspiering video. The maples you are growing in the field for several years to become bonsais in the future , do you prune them too, or do you let them freely grow, till they find theire place in a large pot?
Dear mr. Chan, Peter, isn’t there a risk of bleeding of these maples in spring. I have always been thought that you should prune (heavy pruning) maples at the end of winter before the first leafs
No not at all - the bleeding stops and it is not dangerous. We prune all our large garden Maples in Spring and throughout the Summer In fact pruning at this time of the year facilitates healing and callousing very fast. I have been doing its for over 30 years with great success
Peter, do you remove the small buds from the lower branches or do you let them grow into new branches? I learn so much from all of your videos, even some of the small comments such as taking off branches in stages. I always did the entire branch, now I know!
The average Joe has no idea about pruning and rarely prune properly ( I have also seen so many so called professional landscape crew butcher trees and shrubs). It is good to remember it is not rocket science but a little common since and trees can look so much better. Love your videos.
I've had Silky saws now for about 10 years. Incredible tools, only reason for a chainsaw would be taking down an entire dead tree.. No gas, no noise, lightweight, no maintenance, .. Just have to get used to that they are designed to only cut on the pull stroke, not on the push.
Peter currently watching "Bonsai-a documentary" enjoying it I would love to see those really old Bonsai you first purchased, possibly a series of updates on those trees and the owners gardens if appropriate.
Perhaps the "dead" limbs could be "broken off", and leave some "natural looking" wounds to heal, in time, rather than using saw cuts....?.... I would think that the soil beneath, (in this Maple grove), should be full of early Spring ephemeral" wildflowers!!...(?)....
Enhancing the beauty of nature is a gift.

Your maple grove is truly beautiful. Thanks for showing us the pruning. :)
Peter your enthusiasm is so infectious. Please stay safe and enjoy a Tea or coffee on your bench.

Thank you for being safe, Peter. You are a blessing during a difficult time, and we appreciate your effort, concern, and expertise.
I’m really liking your garden maintenance videos.
Thanks for sharing Peter! These big tree prunings make it easier to see the branches to pick to remove.
"I have enough trees", something rarely heard from a bonsai enthusiast 😆
Well... It took about 35 years and several acres of nursery for this statement to take form in his mind...
@@karolinnotset1393 Fair enough
love all your you tube video beautiful bonsai I love it make me relax thank you Peter

Thank you Mr. Chan. I always gain peace from your videos. Stay well.
It reminded me of my grandma's garden. Thank you. Wonderful view.
You can see Josh has his tree eye and knows his stuff and respect for tools too
He was the top student from his Horticultural college in tree surgery
Another wonderful, and very timely, video!!! You are helping to shape our gardens much more than you realize!! Thank you for a marvelous video!
The negative space is wonderful
Absolutely beautiful grove!
Maples are my favourite bonsai. Such a peaceful pretty garden.
Great video! I love when mr Chan show us the garden

What a nice expression - komorebi
what a wonderful place to live. I,m so jealous right. Keep up the good work
Love your videos, They relax me, seeing all the lovely trees. Thank You. :)
What a beautiful area Mr. Chan.
Peter i love your perspective!
Fabulous Grove of Maples 😊
Over last few years of pruning a friends Large Maple i can see how it improves the tree 👍
i totally agree with you.. i didn't know how to take care of my trees until i started Bonsai this January! Left a like
Wonderful video!
I very enjoyed the views..
Thank you for posting this. I was looking forward to it.

thank you peter for another wonderful video of yours , regards from Queens USA
Maples are one of the easiest species to air layer but to make cuttings you need to use stems no thicker than a toothpick and in early summer.
Josh comes with his own ladder...how tall is that guy, he’s like a giant!!
Ooooh!!!! I'm always amazed by Peter chan contents
Another lesson learned...big trees need pruning as well....my next job....lol
Part 19 of Sunday breakfast with Peter.
Stay well stay safe
Lovely.
Blue sky
Red leaves
Smell of coffee
Beautiful!

I love all your videos keep on sending love the maples unfortunately we don't have any in Africa
Always wanted a bonsai maple
If you live in South Africa - then Maples will grow there.
Hallo Mister Chan. Thank you for another interesting and inspiering video. The maples you are growing in the field for several years to become bonsais in the future , do you prune them too, or do you let them freely grow, till they find theire place in a large pot?
We grow them in the field to thicken the trunks. Branches are developed later
Dear mr. Chan, Peter, isn’t there a risk of bleeding of these maples in spring. I have always been thought that you should prune (heavy pruning) maples at the end of winter before the first leafs
No not at all - the bleeding stops and it is not dangerous. We prune all our large garden Maples in Spring and throughout the Summer
In fact pruning at this time of the year facilitates healing and callousing very fast. I have been doing its for over 30 years with great success
peter chan Thank you for this answer. I will keep this in mind for next years pruning of my garden maple
I have to visit you when you made that cuttings in the Maples. Maybe you can give me some of the branches 😀
As novice I wonder if it’s possible to Bonsai those lovely large Maple with such chunky trunks?
I didn't think you were supposed prune maples in spring, i always thought they produced to much sap at this time of year?
Lovely trees.... Do u think that we can grow bigs maples trees in pot ? Or only on field?
Yes they do well in pots - we sell lots of them - some large ones are upto 5 meters high in 300 litre pots
Peter, do you remove the small buds from the lower branches or do you let them grow into new branches? I learn so much from all of your videos, even some of the small comments such as taking off branches in stages. I always did the entire branch, now I know!
You are so lucky, I can't find any deshojo trees in any nurseries around me. (Florida U.S)
love desshojo
Merci ! ;) good
And Gatwick is closed, what a difference that made.
Do you have a wood chipper ?

Umm, off subject, but your assistant Josh is a fox... heh heh ...anyway GREAT VIDEO thanks!! :)

😍👏😍👏😍👏😍👏😍

I wish I lived near you I would love to turn some maple on my lathe and make you something.
If you are in the UK I will send some small logs to you.
Somehow this video has a bit of a sad vibe to it. Keep your spirits high!
Robert I thought that too.
