Your Delonix Regia forest is amazing Jered. Those pretty leaves remind me of bracken ferns that grow in the woods. Very interesting observations. I wonder if growing individual trees in smaller pots would make any difference. My locust trees do the same thing - want to grow straight up - often loose all branches but the leader over winter. They're so much fun tho'.
@@jarheadbonsai you are correct brother I'm in Naples Florida have 5 acres and a few full grown trees and the babies are all over the place so I thought about bonsai so I ran into your stuff 💪💪
Mines about a year and a half old, and it's really tall and lanky. I have not pruned it yet because the trunk is still really small for its height. Would recover if I cut it down to just a trunk? I'm scared it's gonna snap everytime I move it.
@@jarheadbonsaicould you show that tree? I currently have one that is 8 feet and 3 years old that i’m not sure where to start with or even if its already too big to bother making it into a bonsai or if I do a trunk chop at this point that it would have a massive scar forever
The base of its trunk is 9 inches in circumference and I’m worried it’s too thick to do anything with without a giant ugly scar so could you show if yours has one?
@@rice1307 mine has a recent scar as I completed chopped the canopy off this Spring. It was literally a trunk in a pot...it has 4 branches wired and in training now. They bud back quickly, scars are inevitable in bonsai...go for it

That was super vigorous! it will probably go even crazier now you chopped it lol
If it could give me some evenly distributed vigour...thatd be greaaattt. Lmao. Cheers broski 😎🍺🍺
Interesting about the forest.
Your patience is paying off, brother. 6 years of chops and it’s getting some decent character!
Hell yeh broski 😎🍺🍺
The forest looks cool.
Cheers my friend 😎🍺🍺

Would love to have miniature versions of these guys in my house and in the screen porch
Going on my second year with mine, got a Lil wire bite...
They are difficult to wire fo sho. Cheers and thanks for watching 😎🍺🍺
Plant one and let it ride in a large open area on your yard
Id have to do that in late Spring, and dig it up early Autumn though 😅❄️⛄️
