First for Sunday Morning Bonsai Breakfast Club 😁 It was a real pleasure to visit the nursery a couple of days ago, meet with Peter who was utterly charming, and his friendly team. 🙏
Peter doing his thing again. Makes everything look so simple. Much harder than it looks. I fooled myself into thinking i could get it "right out of the box". Maybe a little Tanuki in everybody.
Great demonstration and great detail and information, I don’t think anyone tires of maple demonstrations or any other type for that matter, we are so happy you take the time to share your knowledge with us.
I greatly appreciate this wonderful man's wisdom, focus, and dedication to teaching the fine art of bonsai. These videos are helping me to discover my own inner artist. Thank you.
I learnt the hard way that bougainvillea breaks easily. Luckily it was only a branch that broke off and a new shoot grew from the break and created a bend naturally. Lovely video as always, Peter. Greetings from a rainy Cape Town.
Nice hot and sunny here in Jozi we could go with some rain, please send it up this way when you done ; ). This season is crazy our side some trees 6/8weeks early on the budding and no rain. Again no real winter like we used to get. Currently 24c before 11am , we have had snow here this time of year a few years back crazy times.
There is a very nice shop called "little shop of bonsai" in Cape Town that's the guy that taught me what I know, if you haven't already you should maybe go check him out, he also have some very nice material for good prices, I like to go there every now and then
It’s Sunday Breakfast again 👍 When you did your first video you inspired me to go and play with what I had in the garden and although most trees have had a slow year this one has begun to take its shape.
Hello Mr. Chan. It's always very early in the morning (most might say middle of the night) when your new videos appear in my timeline. Always a welcome sight to see you and your work during my quiet morning time. Today I was potting some cuttings from a favorite elm as I listened in. This gives me great peace. Thank you for existing. Blessings on you and your endeavors.
@@peterchan3100 Hello Mr. Chan. I am in Texas. The heat of summer is finally abating. Thankfully. I can finally turn my mind to working with my trees instead of just keeping them alive through the heat. Good times.
Thank you for encouraging freedom of expression in this art form. My grandson and I enjoyed “styling” junipers into the beginnings of a process we’ll enjoy over time……if the trees survive!!
Great demonstration. I love my Tridents, but my Junipers need so much attention, I am at a loss, and demonstrations like this help me to try to come up with visualizations for possibilities. I only wish my Shimpaku's would fill out much, much more so I could possibly restyle them and find a more creative way of showing them off. Thanks Peter!!
Thanks So Much Mr.Chan. where we live we have an abundance of ground juniper and Ponderosa Pine and Spruce and I have THROUGHLY enjoyed your videos of the different ways you can make Bonsai with Conifers. I have a larger Juniper that I was wanting to do something special with because it was already growing in such a way that it will be PERFECT for a "Tanuki" Juniper Bonsai. We also have a huge abundance of dried hard as iron root wood from Spruce and Pines that will make PERFECT TANUKI structure...I can hardly wait to go out and collect a bunch to find just the perfect match for my first "Tanuki" Thanks Again. Randel Hill from the Black Hills of South Dakota, USA.
@@peterchan3100 Thank You, I will. We have a Variety of Spruce that grows no where else but our Mountains here it's called Aptly enough, Black Hills Spruce. It's so easy to work with and remains very flexible clear up to 1" or sometimes bigger Branch or Trunk. Sure wish I could send you some seedlings to grow and see how you like them but I have NO IDEA what is required to ship them outside the United States ? Thanks Again and keep making videos I learned most of what I know from watching ALL your videos clear back to when you started. Randel Hill
I remember this Tanuki, I actually watched that video the other day! And was thinking when we would get a follow up! Omg 😭♥️ I found a Wolf juniper growing by a beach where I live, I’m taking cuttings soon to start my journey
Mr. Chan, may I ask what first inspired you to begin your journey with bonsai? Your videos have been of great inspiration, encouragement, and consolation to me during the gloom and trials I’ve been recently experiencing during the pandemic. Thank you so much for doing what you do. I’m very honored to be one of the many people whom you inspired through sharing the art of bonsai.
If you search through my videos - there is one called "All you need to know about bonsai pots". In that video I tell you about how I got started in bonsai. Glad you like these videos of mine.
@@peterchan3100 Thank you, Mr. Chan. It was inspiringly relatable hearing about the start of your bonsai story. I realize we all begin somewhere simple-just like a bonsai. I hope to have the honor of visiting the nursery one day. Best regards! :)
I would already feel gloryfide getting more light and air,but eventually tis tree must feel happy, after getting compleyely transformed in a elegant way. I think you did a vrry good job,thsbk you for sharing.
I always have my eye out for juniperus virginiana Eastern red cedar driftwood. I have carried substantial pieces 50+ lbs a mile or more to make tanuki. You are very inspiring.
Another great video. I have seen a very nice example of this with a olive on a big "stump/trunk" . Remember if your cable ties are too short you can link them up to get the size you need, just put on end into another just a little way until it bites.
Peter can you please help I started watching your UA-cam channel and now I can not stop buying trees from Al over the place . My wife think I have an illness . Thanks for all your time teaching me and all the others the art of bonsai
I’m back on the side of the mountains of Colorado where beautiful bonsai style trees grow in by the thousands all on there own. I only wish I could make my trees as beautiful.
weather here in wesdtern canada temperatures got to nearly 50 celcius. So many garden trees and municipal trees died from the drought and intense heat. Watering was 4-6 times a day sometimes.
I’m running into the problem Peter mentions, I have an eastern red ceder and a piece of driftwood but the tree is much too small for the wood, so I’m hoping that the tree will work with the wood after it’s grown a little
Very nice sir. Is there any reason that you used cable ties instead of wiring the tree to the dead wood? Cost is what I suppose. At any rate, another fine video and of course a fantastic shirt!
@@peterchan3100 have you seen how some people “scrog” cannabis plants? Some of the more artistic menthols of it really resemble bonsai. But being the plants life is so short-
Love Peter and love all the wonderful work! But I’m fairly sure in the last few videos the audio has been peaking more or less throughout, and they’re hard to watch! Of course, not hard enough to watch that I don’t watch… but maybe go back to the rhode Wireless system you had before?
As it is "fake" some bare thickish branch, burn a track of char in a crevice in the branch, lightly knock out the loose char. Saw it done once, on a slope. Looked like an old lightning strike or old forest fire damage on the side of a mountain.
I’m a very simple man; when I see Herons Bonsai notification, I click. Even at 12 pm 🥂
We need more people like you in this world!
First for Sunday Morning Bonsai Breakfast Club 😁
It was a real pleasure to visit the nursery a couple of days ago, meet with Peter who was utterly charming, and his friendly team. 🙏
My dream is to visit this beautiful place!
I would spend my whole day there no doubt.
I never get tired of your sharing maple or whatever- thank you.
Peter doing his thing again. Makes everything look so simple. Much harder than it looks. I fooled myself into thinking i could get it "right out of the box". Maybe a little Tanuki in everybody.
Perfect video for the first morning back home from hospital. Thanks as always Peter ❤
Hope you're feeling better Digital Gorilla!
Morning Peter,beautiful tree ,thank you for the great video lv Ann 🇬🇧
Great demonstration and great detail and information, I don’t think anyone tires of maple demonstrations or any other type for that matter, we are so happy you take the time to share your knowledge with us.
I doubt that I will ever tire of any trees you present. Thank you for another wonderfully informative video!
Never tired of seeing maples Peter :)
*Beautiful Demonstration* I love the tanuki series, Peter Chan shows and teaches about details like no other teacher! *Beautiful tree* 💜😲🙌
Thank you.... 🙏 😔 🙏
Dr. Chan, another of your very informative videos. I am looking forward to seeing these in the future.
🙏 🖖 🙏 😔 🙏 🙏 🙏
I greatly appreciate this wonderful man's wisdom, focus, and dedication to teaching the fine art of bonsai. These videos are helping me to discover my own inner artist. Thank you.

It's nice to see some catch up videos from older projects to see the progress

@@genlj8998 I learnt with joda bonsai here jozi side, My boet is in capetown

It’s Sunday Breakfast again 👍

My favorite channel. Love the show!
by far my favorite shirt
Great video, thank you Peter, much love from the USA
I have a dozen pieces of driftwood and a few junipers to try. Keep swapping them around to find something I like.
Hi peter you have some mic problems such as noise and disconnections in ur recent videos.
Love ur work and ur videos!
Hello Mr. Chan. It's always very early in the morning (most might say middle of the night) when your new videos appear in my timeline.

Where do you live ? California ?

"It's like trying on cloths," says the best dressed gardener on youtube. Touché, sir.
Very creative as usual. Love your Aloha shirt too!
Sir you are a force of nature....
Great work. Can you please do a video about the correct method of making deadwood.. 😊
Beautiful tree even at this stage. That old piece of wood is very beautiful!
Thank you for encouraging freedom of expression in this art form. My grandson and I enjoyed “styling” junipers into the beginnings of a process we’ll enjoy over time……if the trees survive!!

I've waiting for you to do a tanuki and it was a great lesson. Can't wait to see it again when it starts fusing to the dead wood. Thanks for sharing.
Working your magic and making it look easy! As always, thanks for sharing your passion.
Thanks again Peter.
he's super cute in his hawaiian shirts! :D
Thank you for this amazing tutorial Peter! ✨😊

Let's find some dead woods then 😁, looks fun 👍. Thx for sharing and inspiring us Peter, gonna have a go my self, cheers 🌲☕☕🌲.
Thanks Peter loved the video, very informative,
id say it's done. looks awesome already. great job

Wich is the best way to prevente the dead wood from getting rotten?
Thank you so much for all you teach.
WOW IT is fantastic

Nice illness to have - much better than smoking or drinking or other more expensive hobbies.
Thank for your sharing, very good information for me.
I’m back on the side of the mountains of Colorado where beautiful bonsai style trees grow in by the thousands all on there own. I only wish I could make my trees as beautiful.
I have heard about the pines and junipers that grow there. Wish I could visit one day.
Lucky for me, I create my own dead wood... So I have a few lovely candidates for this.
weather here in wesdtern canada temperatures got to nearly 50 celcius. So many garden trees and municipal trees died from the drought and intense heat. Watering was 4-6 times a day sometimes.
Thank you Master 🙏🙏
🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 thanks Peter
A challenge and a half. Nice result though. Thanks Peter.
Awesome
I’m running into the problem Peter mentions, I have an eastern red ceder and a piece of driftwood but the tree is much too small for the wood, so I’m hoping that the tree will work with the wood after it’s grown a little
Instead of a deadwood can a craggy rock or a small boulder be used for tanuki?
Thank you Peter for a great video as always and sharing your vast knowledge 🙏🏻🕉☸️
Could I soak a nice pice off soft wood in epoxy and use that for tanuki cause the expoy would make the would long lasting 🤔
Dragged round a charity shop by the other half yesterday. Found a signed copy of Peter's book from 86 Chelsea flower show😯
Which book did you find ? must have been your lucky day being dragged around by your beloved ! Just shows - you got a reward for your good deed.
Hello 😊❄
Super channel
Thank you!
Very nice sir. Is there any reason that you used cable ties instead of wiring the tree to the dead wood? Cost is what I suppose. At any rate, another fine video and of course a fantastic shirt!
Have you had any success with a pine tanuki?
Thank you sir.
Is it possible to buy those plastic bonsai pots? I am in New Zealand and we don't have those here. They would be fantastic to get ahold of.
Wow!
Love from india
Không thấy cách làm đế tanuki
Ah, finally... The deepest of the secrets comes out. He is doing statistical analysis on the trees. 😳
Are you a statistician if you know about Curve fitting ?
Tamuki are tricksters and visually tricking the eye by marring a living tree to dead wood is indeed a good trick.
even if a tanuki failed, one can make tanuki using falied tanuki
In NE Illinois, we have had a severe drought all Summer.
I wanna see this man grow a weed plant 😬😍
Dandelion weeds I use for accent plantings - I am not into other weeds sorry.
@@peterchan3100 have you seen how some people “scrog” cannabis plants? Some of the more artistic menthols of it really resemble bonsai. But being the plants life is so short-
inspiring :)
aint cool beeing a fool ... but tanuki is great ... looks great!!!
hey, I think the audio quality is a bit off in this video, content is great tho!
Love Peter and love all the wonderful work! But I’m fairly sure in the last few videos the audio has been peaking more or less throughout, and they’re hard to watch! Of course, not hard enough to watch that I don’t watch… but maybe go back to the rhode Wireless system you had before?
Agreed
As it is "fake" some bare thickish branch, burn a track of char in a crevice in the branch, lightly knock out the loose char. Saw it done once, on a slope. Looked like an old lightning strike or old forest fire damage on the side of a mountain.
beautiful video c;
I must say the sound is weak though
Thanks for the video!
The microphone sensitivity is too high and it creates distortion :(
Hello
😍😍😍😍
The mic seems to be clipping a lot
🌳👍
🥰🥰
💕😍👍
I think the Tanuki's were wonderful creatures because they had GIGANTIC testicles and look funny. The trees are nice too.
👍🍎
Sort out your mic, you wonderful, wonderful man.
Tanuku is a raccoon dog. A kind of wild dog.
God bless
You really need to get a new camera. The mic is dead.
pls use a limiter on your audio! my poor ears
