Classic Nigel's tree-tour be like: "it's doing really well!"
That Serissa is a treasure
Thanks!!
Nigel, it's something else to see a person who can look at a tree(Gingko) and verbalize to your viewers about your concerns about it surviving the summer and then hoping it will make enough energy to make it through to spring. There is really a great lesson for your audience. It doesn't go unappreciated.
Everything is looking good Nigel! I have also got a lot of pre-bonsai thistles in my backyard that are fighting hard for a spot on my bench
So many fantastic trees!
Now I’ve got an incurable case of bench envy. Just beautiful. Keep growing. Thanks
Indeed everything looking good and I love how the city penjing planting getting better each time I see it .
So many beautiful trees :) Thanks for another video Nigel!
Plenty to keep you busy Nigel, thanks for the updates!
Great video, so many trees, and they are all doing great, lots of work there
What an amazing collection 👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you for the great tour! 🌱
I am happy to see the premiere from the beginning today. Nice bonsai and good job
All looking good. Nice vid Nigel thanks
Hi Nigel. I was very excited about your Ta Prohm temple project. Please don't give up on that one. Best wishes😊
Great tour of the bonsai yard.
That is an awesome collection!! Wow. Your videos inspired me to place into tidier pots my myrtle, ginko, bougainvillea and grapefruit trees! Can't wait to see how they grow this spring.
Always a treat to view your garden
Thanks, I hope you are doing well Jon, we'll have to get together again this year!
I absolutely LOVE the "bench tour" and update videos!! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks Chris!
Amazing video Nigel 👋👋👋
This is very relaxing and i love your bonsai trees❤️❤️
Your trees are looking good Nigel.. 👍👍👍
The Video we all been waiting for...
Crown of thorns. Wow. Beautiful Bonsai Really Really. Thanks 👍 Love Maria Montreal Canada 😻
So nice of you, thanks Maria, I hope it continues to develop over the upcoming years!
Thanks for the update, Nigel! I am rooting for your poor ginkgo. :) If I may give you a piece of advice (please feel free to ignore it): when taking cuttings from trees and shrubs with large leaves, consider reducing every leaf to half, all leaves but the top pair. That would reduce the need to draw up water to keep turgor pressure in them. That is what you observe on your lilac and fiddle ficus cuttings - there is not enough water coming up to sustain their needs. Try and see if it helps (I used to root F. benjamina that way, and now do that with my fuchsia bushes and rhodos). Anywho, have a nice day!
Your benches tours are always amazing. Happy you have your covid shots! Be alright
Nice tour, Nigel!
you have such a beautiful garden dude.
Looking good Nigel. I wish I had as much space to set up benches for my trees.
I really dont know how you find the time to grow all this! Such a great collection, thank you for sharing 🙏
Very inspiring, thanks for sharing.
Regards from Indonesia 🤩
You have so many trees. You must have a lot of energy to do all the things you do and still keep up all those trees.
Love the village penjing! I've never seen that one before today. I'm so astounded that you remember all the names for each bonsai as you speak about it. WOW! I'd love to see how you work with the rosemary and propagate it. It is a very difficult plant to root from cuttings. Glad to hear that you got your 1st COVID shot. Take it easy for a day or so. Both of us have been vaccinated for months - no reactions. Looking forward to your next video.
nice collection Nigel! you might benefit from adding large wheels on your benches, so you could move them to sunny/shady area easily with your trees on them..
Excited to see the Sequoia seeds growing well, for obvious reasons.
Thanks Elisabeth, I've moved the seedlings out of the greenhouse today, I had a few wilt and die off, I'm hoping the outdoors helps!
Thanks, Nigel!
Nice bonsai my brother👍👌
Dont forget next time see you again👌👍
Good job
I got the chance to go to the upper peninsula of Michigan and got to see a bunch of mature thujas and now I want one.
Hope the storm today missed you and your trees nigel
Thnks for sharing
Greating from 🇲🇨🙌
Your collection's looking good. I thin your Ginkgo may grow suckers from the base to regain strength. Your seedlings are also looking very promising.
So many beautiful trees ❤️ When will you be back working on the plant room? I’m looking forward to it!
Thanks for posting! V interesting, and (fessing up) your garden looks astonishingly similar to mine and I'm sure a lot on here. To outsiders who don't understand The Little Friends, it looks like some sort of OCD / hoarding mania. To us it's like Completion Satisfaction ("....I saw this tree; I want this species of tree; ergo I must put it in a pot and apply wire and weird soil and pruning.... ahhhhhhhh com-ppppppletion!! Now I have a ficus / black pine / this maple / this tree".... then two weeks later.... "I saw this tree, I want this tree; ergo....").
Love the FrankenFicus! Beautiful. I don't generally like ficus but TBH the better ones that are starting to change my mind are on your channel.
Thanks again for posting,
Mark, Fellow Little Friends enthusiast from the UK.
Thanks Mark!
Hi Nigel! I live in Texas, but love the larch trees. I looked them up on Google and they love the cold climates. I guess that leaves me out. I really love them and the beautiful little trees you make from them. One of my hobbies includes making miniatures and it’s been a passion of mine to try to create a forest penjing and include miniatures that I create. Any suggestions?
Have you thought of using hanging moss of some kind in any of your plantings? At least for a showing it might be really cool like an Olympic National park feeling or a marshy atmosphere
Nigel. Looks like: Elm Cockscomb Gall. The gall houses an aphid which asexually produces more aphids. I would quickly destroy those leaves and bag and dispose or burn those infected leaves as soon as possible.
nigel just wanna ask where's the ribbon root ficus experiment?😅
I think it was repotted into soil some time ago
Need a part 2 of this tour!
Hey Nige, good vid as always! The plant that looks similar to the pine succulents I sent, I'll try to find an id for you. It definitely doesn't appear to be the same species though. I'll let you know if I get a positive ID.

I see your bougainvillea is looking lovely and flowing too! How do you get yours to flower or is it a seasonal thing? I know mine have flowers as Iv seen them flower before.
Good morning Nigel!
Good morning Cody!!
xD yeeeeeaaaaahhhhhhh new video woop woop xD
👌👌👌...!!!
Thanks Sunit!!
Maybe try putting the ginkgo under a grow light over the winter extending it’s grow time?
Hey nigel, hope ur doing really well:)
Love watching your videos, because once I’ve watched your videos, I can go out and look at my trees , and appreciate just how good mine are in comparison.
Niceee
The fiddle leafs do get pretty small leaves eventually, about the size of a hass avacado (some even smaller) One I water has a big multi trunk like 9 by six inches wide and its like 2.5 ft. tall, lol, but really small leaves, so you can have hope :)
Thanks Zack, that gives me hope for the future of the tree!
Any tips on transplanting oak seedlings? My last two attempts failed within a week.
😍🌲🌳
Nigel, I'm considering bringing my Japanese Maples north next Fall. I live in Montana and this would be the first year doing this. Any tips??
so happy you got your second vaccine shot
These are aphid galls n your American Elm tree.
18:09 I believe its Hemia Salicifolia
hi, any idea how to sell a bonsai?..50 yr old orange tree... getting kinda big, no more room for it here...
👍👍👍
Hot days all right
Oh no, sorry about the Ginkgo...hopefully it pulls through.
how often do water the portulacarias
Nigel remove all leaves before planting ur cuttings. That will increase survival probability of cuttings.
I have experienced it.
Earlier i was used to plant them with leaves on just like u.
Thanks, a great tip!!
You have some of the most beautiful trees I’ve ever seen but but but but but but but why do you have a thistle????
You clearly haven’t seen many bonsai, if you think that they are good.
What about lilac? :)
If that thistle flowers and seeds you will have them all over your yard. A real pain to get rid of them then. I got some from wild bird seed and have been fighting them for more than 10 years.
I'm glad, that you're after vaccination, and you're feeling well :)
👍🍎👌
Bald Cypress?!?!?!

Noice!

Lets do Foist!
@@TheBonsaiZone - i must look like im sat on the PC all the time lol
I tried to transplant a maple start from my huge tree but it died…
Why don't you paint this row of posts with that tar paint, to at least make them resistant enough, to stay in good shape until you feel like errecting the second row of posts ?
Your progress is so slow I honestly doubt, we will ever see the big greenhouse in use at all. There might already be boring insects inside the posts, you should really buy some tar paint and secure them, so at least this work you have already done won't go to waste.
