    Holy cow! I can’t believe you got that much growth in a period of 10 years. That is a spectacular tree.

    My heart almost stood still with nearly everything you did to that tree:D This is such a different approach to treating plant in comparision to tropical plants like I collect.

    Very nice tree. The Jade is a perfect subject for those of us that got into bonsai when we were too old to wait 30 years to get the results we're after. :0)

    The new angle makes so much difference I'm in the early stages of growing my mini jade and alot of the jade videos are not in English so I just have to learn by watching. So thanks for this help and information. Keep up the good work 👍

  • @phasicsbonsaiworld6902
    @phasicsbonsaiworld6902 4 роки тому

    In my honest opinion, if I may be so blunt, I would suggest taking off that first branch completely, as its obstructing your nebari and then next branch on that side is a perfect substitute, not only higher up the trunk, but on the outside of the curve and enhancing your taper.

    • @WeareTheBonsaiSupply
      @WeareTheBonsaiSupply  4 роки тому

      Phasic's Bonsai World hi, thank you for your suggestion. It has crossed my mind of removing the first branch, but I feel like that would give the tree too much negative space on the left. I’ll leave the branch until I’m ready to remove it.
