    That is an amazing pot and planting. It’s funny that you put the slant cut in because when I saw the pot it was the first thing I thought of 😂

    • @notionbonsai
      @notionbonsai  10 місяців тому

      Attila did such a great job on that pot/slab! It definitely is an alternative route of getting the trees to sit in place, though I dont think it would improve the roots over time! 😊😊

    I'm only a minute in so I shouldn't comment yet, but I love it so far! You look like you were carrying a small bonsai as you came across the screen for the first time:) fortunately I have a huge homemade broken pot that can be made into what you're doing, thanks!

    • @notionbonsai

    @jakesnelling8331 10 місяців тому +2

    I think I would have done more root work in the previous years to get rid of the largest roots. Not that it matters as it looks great 👍
    On a side note.. how do you not ruin your funky clothes? 🤣 I end up in a right state sometimes, lol.
    Great video, as always 👍

    • @notionbonsai
      @notionbonsai  10 місяців тому +1

      Ahh that would have looked even better for sure!! This is a good idea to keep in mind for super long term projects! If you work with soil that is on the dry side, I find it is easier to keep them clean (not all the time though lol) Thanks for watching Jake!

  • @Plummdaddy
    @Plummdaddy 10 місяців тому

    Great video! Do you think those trees would handle hot and humid climates like Houston Texas? It’s a sub tropical climate here.

    • @notionbonsai
      @notionbonsai  10 місяців тому

      I'm glad you enjoyed the video! Swamp cypress is well-suited to hot and humid climates like Texas. As a tree native to swampy regions of the southeastern US, they are highly adaptable to a variety of growing conditions, including hot summers and high humidity.
      In fact, the hot and humid climate of Houston would provide ideal conditions for swamp cypress to thrive and grow vigorously. Just be sure to give them enough water and moisture retention in the soil, as swamp cypress trees prefer moist to wet conditions 🤗🌿🌳

    • @notionbonsai
      @notionbonsai  10 місяців тому

      The pot itself took Attila 1 week to make. Then it took us 2 days to assemble the planting. (not counting the time it took to grow the trees to the thickness they are at now!) 🤗🌳🌳🌳

    Even though other people told you what this plant is, I would still like to do it so that I feel satisfied. I thought I was cool cuz I knew what plant it was. So I checked my hort. resource and I was close but so wrong. I thought you'd find this funny. My first thought was Ligularia stenocephala 'The Rocket' but no that's yellow and not even related. I now know it's Umbilicus rupestris. I will add this to my horticulture knowledge bank. Thanks everyone.

  • @jazzrat2000
    @jazzrat2000 10 місяців тому

    I don't have access to a lot of moss here strangely enough. When I do this I'm worried the water will rinse all the dirt down to the bottom even if I covered it with something like coco coir. Does the moss keep the dirt from rinsing away?

    • @notionbonsai
      @notionbonsai  10 місяців тому

      Hey! from what I have found - the soil stays on pretty well if you water it gently and dont blast it 🤗

    what substrate did you use for this composition?🤔

    • @notionbonsai
      @notionbonsai  8 місяців тому +1

      Hey! The soil used in this planting is a mix of sphagnum moss and compost. This is because swamp cypress requires a lot of water 😀

  • @brianjanku4549
    @brianjanku4549 9 місяців тому

    I don't know if that is the best species for a slab unless you are good at never forgetting to water. I have a huge one that I plan on putting in a nice deep pot.
