I really like that Summer is so knowledgeable and can 'chew the fat' with John. She adds so much to the episode. I hate it when an 'interviewer' merely asks questions and adds nothing to the program. John is a real delight and and his enthusiasm is infectious.
Loved John's enthusiasm and passion. Thank God for his angelic wife who allows for his takeover of their deck. I have an angel who let's me do the same with my 200+ houseplants. Thank God for nature, plants and angels!
Another fascinating tour! John really shows his excitement and passion in his hobby....and his stories behind each tree was so interesting. I could listen to him all day..lol. His specimens are beautiful! I love that you are venturing out to showcasing different subjects, crafts and hobbies in your channel. Thank you, Summer and John. :)
This was an incredible episode. He was such a sweet knowledgeable soul. It became obvious early on that your visit made his day. I am ecstatic that you are back at your tours. Thanks for sharing Summer 💚🌿
Summer, you're so humble! I rely on your knowledge in my plant journey- and you just have to accept that you're a plant-genius! I love watching what you and Sander create!
This man is precious! His excitement is refreshing. How did I miss this video when it first came out? 🤣😑 (Also him using his "weeds" as an indicator of plant health is genius!)
I loved this episode. I myself am an artist and art historian but I started in biology. I actually am studying the literati and Chinese landscape painting and how they molded their own version of the world, rather than just copying nature. Very inspiring episode and loved the enthusiasm and connection he has for everything. hugs
John is amazing!! Such knowledge and patience, and I LOVEEEEE how passionate and excited and exuberant he is!!!! I wish I could pick his brain a million times over! 🖤💚 Bless you John, and your partner who “allows” the hobby. 💚🖤
I love the bonsai John is an amazing person his knowledge is exceptional I could listen to him all day he’s such gentle soul he’s so cute 😊 I love ❤️ the interaction you had with him you’re such an inspiration to me I love 💗 what you do.
Thank you so much for this lovely clip about bonsai with a real bonsai connaiseur in the name of John. I have several times rewounded and played so as to well assimilate the content. As a non American I also appreciate the very clear and without hard accent of the English spoken by both of you. Again thank you and my dream is to be able to pay both of you in the midst of your plants. However if ever you are here in my tiny island Mauritius, lost in the Indian Ocean do let me know as I could show you some of my bonsais and our lovely native flora.
I loved his story about the tree he rescued that was floating down the river and you took it home and planted it and then when he got into bonsai he potted it up and worked his magic
Had to watch this one as bonsai became one of my interest in horticulture. I'm lucky to inherit 4 of my grandpa's bonsai and they were almost 30 years at that time so I have to keep the art going. Thanks to John I get to feel the excitement again!!
Very enjoyable video. John is quite the enthusiastic guest. Would love to see a video of him potting and wiring a new plant. Summer, your videos are terrific and great to watch. Btw, your camera person(s) are terrific too!!
Thanks for this awesome bonsai garden tour. John’s tree collection is lovely and his passion is contagious. This video is a great resource for anyone who wants to start in bonsai and doesn’t know much about the art form.
Haha I’ve already learnt every tree off by heart by doing this 🤣. Am growing out an olive, swamp cypress and Chinese maple in the garden at the moment though!
I recommend you learn with cheap ficus microcarpa from a box store. They're tough, can be inside in warm weather, and they take to bonsai very well. Walmart and Lowe's usually have them. I would get a couple of the curve ones and not the fat rooted ones.
@@comfortablynumb9342oh yes!! That is the exact plant I have. I contained it in a small pot so that it wont grow large. planning to repot it in a nice planter then structure it soon.
Wow! What a dream! 🥺 This made my heart sing, as do all of your videos! I love listening and learning all of this information. Thank you for spreading and sharing this knowledge and beauty! Truly amazing! 😁💜
One of your best Video.. 🙏 shirsashtang namskar to his art and the way he is involved with it. Touching person's feet to give him respect.... is the meaning of shirsashtang. namskar
I have watched this video like 3 times. John is so awesome!!! He’s so knowledgeable about bonsai, and I know nothing, so it was so interesting listening to everything he had to say. Helps that he’s super entertaining and wholesome as well. Makes me interested in trying out bonsai some day, although I wouldn’t consider myself very artistic or creative.
A very very interesting interview. I had never had any luck with Bonsai trees. Your guess has an entire patio of beautiful Bonsai trees and I give him much respect.
As a subscriber of your channel and 2-year self-learning student of bonsai, I'm super pleased to see this. Travel permitting, you guys should definitely head down to Mirai or other professionals' bonsai gardens - there is so much to see and I feel you and Ryan Neil will have so much to nerd out about when it comes to horticulture. I know your work prior to youtube is also important and prolific - I'm sure you'd love the rigour and depth of bonsai.
Oh my gosh John is adorable!!! I have a bonsai and I had no idea how to keep it going. I'm feeling a little more adventurous now. I also have some conifers on our property, I'm going to pull a Summer😁
Superb Video Editing 👍 thank you. I would recommend this Video to every Bonsai beginner since it captures nearly all the imporant aspects of growing Bonsai. 10/10
Very interesting as usual. I sent the link to my grandson, he is very interested in learning the art of bonsai. I must admit it also fascinates me. Thank you Ms. Summer, I can’t wait to see what you come up with next!💚🙃
I love this episode! John is amazing! I didn’t expect to be so interested in bonsai but boy oh boy I’m looking at my houseplants now and deciding which one will be manipulated 😂
When we bought my in-law’s home I trimmed all the dead or weak growth off of two large, established juniper bushes. I didn’t know what I was doing at the time but they’ve pushed so much more growth and have since become the most gorgeous, graceful, bonsai-esque plants. We just love them. Definitely a recommended way to save or regenerate a tree or bush.
For a guy I love birds and plants also. I try to carve bonsais but always mess them up. And I want to say how stunning this lady is. Just beautiful. I could talk to her all day.
I am very new to Bonsai. At this point I only have some small trees in pots nothing of any cash value but priceless to me. I came across your channel and now learning a lot. Thanks for sharing your passion. Mike T from NJ
Only 2 minutes in and I can already see what a gem this man is 🥺💖
Wow what a lovely word.. "My wife is an angel". I love bonsai plants... You are amazing you have lots of bonsai plants.
I really like that Summer is so knowledgeable and can 'chew the fat' with John. She adds so much to the episode. I hate it when an 'interviewer' merely asks questions and adds nothing to the program. John is a real delight and and his enthusiasm is infectious.
I was totally into this video! His passion in his creations really pulled me in. Wonderful issue!
I know NOTHING about plants, but this show is A MOOD.
John is adorable! He's so passionate about bonsai and his bonsai are so beautiful.
I LIVE for Summer's field trips! Makes me feel like I'm in second grade again going on a field trip! ☺️
Me too
Summer reminds me of Princess Kate, bubbly and classy. John is just delightful. Loved going through his collection!
The BEST Bonsai- Ambassador !!
John is so passionate and knowledgable about plants and Bonsai. This was a great treat for us and got so much information. Thank you.
I love that plant nerds get to talk about their passion, we on the winning end by learning all the little tricks and tips.
this man seems so gentle and sweet... would love to learn from him!
Incredible tour. Love his enthusiasm talking about his great work with is "little hobby".
I like that man. And Summer I really appreciate the sentiment “it gives me something new to learn”.
I love his “canaries”. What a brilliant way to gauge the health or potential problems with his bonsai.
The passion and excitement this man has especially when he struts off to pick up the next tree is admirable
Loved John's enthusiasm and passion. Thank God for his angelic wife who allows for his takeover of their deck. I have an angel who let's me do the same with my 200+ houseplants. Thank God for nature, plants and angels!
This is one of the most valuable and my favourite video I've come across . Thanks for sharing, Summer 💕

And the camera person, Sander is that you?
I just want to hug that man...he is so enthusiastic!

Finally...a bonsai video..loved it...
Honestly, you know The Very Best people on the planet! He is a treasure🥰🥰🥰
I really enjoyed this down to earth video on Bonsai from John .
Okay, who's looking around their yard or house right now to see what they can cut into a bonsai? 😂 I certainly am!
Yeah I have some cottoneaster I think might work. 😊
Me, lol
I'm sharpening my pickaxe and shovel as I'm watching this
@@myteegeeful Hailing from Bangladesh, send me some cuttings 😆😆😆
Haha I’ve already learnt every tree off by heart by doing this 🤣. Am growing out an olive, swamp cypress and Chinese maple in the garden at the moment though!
I really love his enthusiasm towards bonsai. I have one plant that is a candidate for my first bonsai project.

Love my bonsai trees
A very very interesting interview. I had never had any luck with Bonsai trees. Your guess has an entire patio of beautiful Bonsai trees and I give him much respect.
That is a great subject for a topic, starting your Bonsai garden tree.
Lovely conversation very informative.
what a fantastic video, watched the whole hour without even thinking
Wow. John is absolutely fantastic. His passion is infectious! It really inspired me to try Bonsai.
Great video! These are my favourites when you visit people and check out their collections. This man is a gem so interesting to listen to
lovely to have the forest to pick from...I love the moss growing in the bonsai pots

Love the enthusiasm, great guy!

Lots of respects to John. He did amazing jobs on bonsais. I hope he starts youtube. 😁
Summer is beautiful. Oh, and so is bonsai. Haha

For a guy I love birds and plants also. I try to carve bonsais but always mess them up. And I want to say how stunning this lady is. Just beautiful. I could talk to her all day.
