On the topic of lockdown mental health...
I found taking care of plants and trees has kept my mental health well during lockdown thus far, i started growing trees to make in to bonsai with a couple of other plants (which is partly thanks to Peter and his videos) and i have struggled with depression in the past and having to get up every morning and open the curtains for the plants and trees forces me to not stay in bed all morning and keep my curtains closed all day and wallow in self pity or depression.
Knowing i must get up and water and make sure they get enough light and warmth aswel as learning how to take care of them as they grow to becoming bonsai gives me all the mental stimulation and inner happiness that i need during these testing times.
Again thanks Peter and the team for inspiring people like me to learn something new and growing the love for gardening by making charming and informative videos for free.
I am glad I am of some use. But take care my friend and enjoy your bonsai.
How awesome would that be to have all those trees to play with at your fingertips!!!! Peter has the best job in the world!!
I'm sure youre aware of this, but those large callouses are worth a lot of money to wood workers. Perfect material for violins, cellos, guitars and other instruments. If a big tree with a large callous happens to die, you should try and sell it, or use it yourself, they also make beautiful bowls or bonsai pots.
No one could accuse Peter Chan of lacking passion.
Week 42 of Sunday breakfast with Peter
I love the variety when you treat us with this type of video.
As always stay safe and well as we endure this forth coming lockdown.
Nice blue sky overhead for the show around! 😊
"In bonsai we learn to be patient" - now there's a lesson I'm hoping to learn from bonsai!
Are you an impatient person ?
@@peterchan3100 Due to depression, I never had time or energy to do anything I wanted from my childhood up until the age of 27 - so now that I do, I'm quite impatient to get somewhere. Makes me stressed out when I don't advance quickly enough.
@@ingeborg-anne
It’s certainly taught me patience!
Don’t get stressed out with bonsai, even if you cut too much off it will grow back eventually! You HAVE to make mistakes to learn!
My advice Is, have as many different species of tree as you can, I find I don’t overwork my trees now I have lots!
I adore Peter. He says, “mildew”, the way Ze Frank would, and that makes me so happy. 🥰
Late summer!! We have snow!!! Ugh you people and your warm places! Send some of that summer here
Good thing you get so much rain there. Even though my location is not very dry we still need to water potted plants almost every day.
Peter in the woods! Wonderful!
Pinch, prune, first Peter of the month.
Peter needs a go pro and head mount so we can have PPOV (Peter's point of view) cam
OR! A small camera mounted to his glasses. That would be much more comfortable to wear, I think.
Beside all the amazing trees, you can see a man do what he loves. I mean for example 46:20 - 47:00, that's pure joy right there on Peter's face. :)
Love seeing peters summer wardrobe
I would love to work at your nursery . Great people and trees
You certainly are not lazy, nor are you a fool! You have so much advice, experience, the how-to to share; thank-you for sharing with us. Bless you and all those there.
👍 can't go wrong with a Maple...love them, colors amazing...its like the el Dorado of 🍁 maples
Those crab apple fruits look so yummy!
Woohoo.. Surely we would love to help prune and all when we can Peter.. beautiful trees, what a lucky guy indeed. Thx for sharing..cheers.
Wow, this video was just packed full of content....loved it! Can't wait to see you work on all those items you pulled out. Thanks so much, Peter. For those of us who are stuck inside you are an inspiration and a chance to live vicariously!
Peter, I think I'm in love with your nursery.
I've been growing this for 25 years.
*throws tree*
I love it lol
“Many people think I’m lazy or a fool, but I don’t think I’m quite that”
No Peter, you are neither lazy nor a fool, but you are adorable! 😂
We do not think you are crazy, we know you are an inspired GENIUS !
Love the shirt, Peter! (and the amazing advice and wisdom, of course!)
Thank you ever so much for bringing bonsai and nature into my evening. Your video brings much joy to a student during exam preparations!
I can tell you take great care of your plants. They look so happy and healthy
Wow oh my word, herons is absolutely full of hidden gems, wish I lived near then I could visit, maybe one day 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you for sharing those gorgeous plants,it really gives positive vibes! Happy gardening watching from Japan🌹💕☕️☕️😊🤩👍🏻🌿
The maple that u was working its nice to this Hallowing day, It has a terrorific wind.
I can't believe you can dig that large tree in August!! My weather in the U.S. is hot during this time also.
summer, we are halfway to spring haha !
Sorry, I kept looking video: AMAZING AND CURIOUS SNAKE ROOT!!! :-O
8:53 "Just let me put it down gently here" 😅👌🏻
I'll keep my eyes peeled for the sale or a volunteer day. One day I'll get the pleasure of visiting that beautiful place.
In the meantime I'll have the joy of watching the seeds you sent me so promptly.
Hinoki Cypress is the first tree I bought for myself.
Ooh, a volunteer day would be great. I'd travel from Denmark to Herons for that.
Some serious stuff for sure
I enjoyed the video. Some exciting looking raw material. As you have shown the pruning need not take too long. It's the tidying up afterwards I find a chore. I hope there are not too many only left armed people buying the trees. I have tried, successfully growing Shindeshojo airlayers following you earlier videos. Such a fun way to get new trees. Keep up the good work.
Wait till the end for Mr. Peter to go back to the willow and I think he run out of time,hopefully next video with the hinoki.
Thanks Mr. Peter!!! And yes you’re right I can send you my right arm if you send me one/any of those lovely maples
Peter is a Bonsai Superman. I am watching these videos because I am so stressed about the U.S. election, although I live in Canada.
I dont air my views on politics but like you I find the US political scene stressful - and that is putting it mildly !!
Nice tour through the "jungle". Thanks, Peter!
So many Wonderful projects you have! Thank you for the tour !
48 minutes very well spent watching this amazing video. You are an inspiration sir i love watching you in your garden and listening to your passion for Bonsai and nature. Thank you.
I wish covid would be over already so i can fly to Europe and help you tame the wild trees 😢 Great work Peter, as always
Sycamore Surprise Bonsai! :) I look forward to seeing how that one will turn out!
I would recommend Green Cure in a foliar spray for the powdery mildew. It's used alot in the cannabis industry to prevent that exact issue. A can also use baking soda in replacement.
Thanks Peter. I have a shohin Antarctic Beech. Lovely tree for bonsai, small dark green leaves turning a beautiful bronze colour in the Autumn. The bark is nice as well. Still got a way to go before its anywhere near good though. It didn't like the hot spring and summer either.
The view @29:23 triggers my trypophobia in the most interesting way.
I love it!!!
I really love your videos! Thanks a lot for sharing!😊👍
I love the big tree cut-backs, I would consider them a "project". I've had zero luck growing out any maple seeds and finally gave up after losing a few hundred dollars on seeds, now I just buy seedlings or big plants and cut them back. I did recently get 50 maple seedlings (gone dormant) and they had fantastic root systems on them, even just being about 6-8 inches in length. If I were there, I'd be following you around and picking up all the cuttings to try and "stick" with rooting powder! Your cut-offs would be my treasure! :)
Did you cold stratify your maple seeds? Most species of maple need cold stratification in order to sprout. This can be done by putting the seeds in the refrigerator, or leaving them outside during the winter if you live in a cold area.
@@debbiej.2168 Yes I did. Even bought some already sprouting from an online source and none of them made it.
@@deedahl2866 Wow! Really bad luck! Glad you've got some now.
6:30 I had success with getting roots to grow faster by re cutting the callus. The two sides had almost grown back together, so it seemed like my only option. It's possible that the callus there is healing cambium (phloem), as opposed to adventitous rooting (xylem), different sides of the cambium. It should look like cauliflower for roots. This process is hormone dependant, so slow growing varieties are going to take longer. Lifting up a skirt of bark/cambium could possibly give it more incentive to form callus from the xylem side. Good luck! 🏅
Oh, and the hormone needed is very UV sensitive and slower growing varieties will not produce enough if there is too much exposure. Another trick that increased rooting was to add a pot over the root mass. The plastic can still be clear. The pot is to cut down on the radiation without putting it in shade.
Thank you.... 🙏 😔 🙏
Dr. Chan your works are so educational and so inspiring, how could one be bored. Thank you for showing arround. It is so amazing the variety of trees that you have.
I must tease a little about the temperatures that you guys call hot. 30 degrees is beautiful weather, we don't even think it is warm until we reach 39 to 40 C (101 F). Well that is dependant on the relative humidity. If The Gulf decides to favor us with too much moisturizer that nice temperatures can change quite readily.
Now, to serious matters, I had been seeing the greenhouse where you have the Maples that get mildew easily, but I had noticed, the greenhouse is quite closed off. If you can move the plants that are getting mildew to a shade area that is more open, where there is a slight beeze, this will dry the leaves quickly after watering. It might increase the water demand of the trees some, but the open and breezy area will do two things, lower the humidity, yes, but the water droplets will not stay on the leaves as long. Down here on The Gulf coast there is an eternal battle with mold and mildew. You cannot change the humidity, but you can allow the wind to air dry things, as much as possible.
🌮🙏🖖🙏😔🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for the great video. Wish I was in England I would certainly buy 2 of those lime trees.
素晴らしくてゴージャス! beautiful garden and beautiful all trees ... healthy& growing well because you care them with love& heart, Sir. Waiting for “ハゼの木“ upload Sir.. thank you. 🥰
Excellent video Mr. Chan, I hope to one day visit when this craziness is over :)
Such a good video, thanks Peter
Another great lesson from the master. Thank you.
good job
All these beautiful trees, very inspiring.
38:35 is gold
Teasing us with that weeping willow peter! I got excited when you pulled it out☺️
Peter, you should grow a tamarind bonsai. They’re very good for bonsai.
In the tropics - yes, but not in the UK
min.46.10 The german name of tilia cordata is "(Winter)Linde". Bless u xx
Lime tree harakiri ;-) i love your videos
SALUDOS FROM SPAIN, MY FRIEND.
Thank you so much Peter for letting us follow you in your daily routine in a nursery. A myriads of trees and actions on a nursery are invaluable to every bonsai lover I think. The only thing if I just may to suggest. Maybe it's just me. Sorry for that then. Anyway, would there be a way to improve the filming a bit? I find the filming is a little overdone by trying to catch all the surroundings while following you and your actions, which I think should be a primary subject for the video. I have no doubt it's a challenge for a camera man to not include all the beaty around you in a video . Needless to say, less is more :)
Thank you - I love constructive comments
I was like number 100!
AND comment number 18
Thank you Peter Sir. We are blessed by your channel. You never know how much we viewers learned and appreciated your videos. God bless you more. Love you
Peter the way you use your Felco's is amazing, you must sharpen them often.
Your good teacher sir
You're a star!
Love these kind of videos. You forgot to work on the weeping willow though....
I just Love watching you work. I had some small Maples in the ground. I think I might try potting. ☺☺☺👧👧🌳🌳🍁🍁❤❤❤
Thank you for your comment (👍)❤
Peter, I am wondering when is the best time of year to do a hard chop on a trunk. I have a very large yew that I dug out of a garden and recently potted. I'm hoping to reestablish it over the next year and make a drastic chop in a year or two. Best time? Worst time? Peace and love Y'all! -from Tennessee
Early Spring or Summer is good. But not Winter
This field maple work was to me like someone sculpting a rock. It just looked like a field rough tree, but when Peter started to shape it and let the splendid nebari and triple trunk arise my mind blown. Once again, very good job, congrats.
That’s a massive base
Nice ! Merci ;) thx
3:30 I'd call it "odds-zen-ends"
Great video as always! I see you have some maples that looks like «witches broom» variants. I also have one in my garden and I think they’re both beautiful and strange. Do you have any tips on how to prune them to get the best out of them?
Peter may I suggest you and the team go around and pick out good raw material for styling and put them on on Ebay with correct postage?
WE put a few on our website or on-line shop
@@peterchan3100 Thank you.
Could you please tell me the model or model's of Felco hand pruner's you use! Thank's another great video Peter! Rick Hanson
No 2
"Odds and ends"; yes i like this
THOSE DAMN SQUIRRELS!!!!
How many truck loads of soil do you go through a year?
I can't imagine it's as much as a garden centre nursery would use because the trees take longer to grow than garden centre plants.
He does talk about composting his leaves. But I have no idea about the speciality soils he gets like kanuma and akadama.
I really need help with my bonsai lately it has been dropping leaves and I don’t really know why I’ve given it the right amount of water and the soil is not dry I have been thinking about if it’s because of it getting less light
what was the scientific name of the lime tree that peter showed? i couldn't get it
that 3 trunk tree looks like the whomping willow from H.P.
From the 16:00 mark and throughout time forwards I will think of you as "The Typhoon Bonsai Teacher". 😊
I am a mere deluge as a pressure washer for 30 years.
I can't help but think about that mildew on the red maple. As a pressure washer I naturally followed my service with sealants and protective juices, so to speak...to fight future rot and decay...mildews and molds mostly! I think now all of the Earth has the mildew and mold spores just waiting for conditions to look favorable to reproduce.
Would we look at the Tree having a deficiency first or the environment? I think, "Where does this tree feel best in nature?".
Maples like moist feet but a dry hat I think because humidity on the leaves weaken the barrier allowing the spore to feed. So is your tree in the wrong place, or is it deficient?
Peter - Would those black pine have grown faster in the ground (instead of the pot)? I totally understand what you are doing with that stock but was just curious if there was a difference.
Absolutely
i buy a seed of juniper and sakura to be bonsai :)
Hello Heron. Curious if you have noticed trees like pine or redwood killing grass?
Also if you may know of types of grasses which may do better underneath these you of trees?
Thank you do your time
The pine needles that fall smother the grass and prevents grass from growing. The shade doesn't help either. Grass needs light to grow well.
Hello Peter, quick question on japanese maples please. My local park has loads of mature japanese maple trees. Last year every tree had load of seeds, which i collected and successfully germinated. This year not one tree has had any seeds on? Do maples hit and miss a year? Or is there another reason?
Thanks, Joe.
If you get a good summer, then the following year will have lots of seeds because the sun ripens the shoots which produce seed. With fruiting trees like apples and pears - they rest one year and fruit well the next . Does that make sense?
How much would a tree in these stage of training cost?love watching your videos here in Illinois.
If you have to ask you can't afford them. 😉
Good Day Peter! i am wondering ...can leave size or needles length be cut to encourage smaller leaf or needles?
Not necessarily - doesn't always work
@@peterchan3100 Thank you.
First view and comment!! Thank you for all that you do Peter, love the videos!
Boo so close...at least mine had content...
"lo and behold, the plane goes flying again"
Hmm those black pines took 25 years? Couldn’t you speed up development if you grew a sacrificial branch but pinched candles and shoot select to get back budding and ramification?
Because they have been in pots all the time. Had I planted them in the ground, they would have taken off !!
@@peterchan3100 Ahh so instantly putting a pine or anything right away as a bonsai doesn’t always work, as I’ve seen in your videos growing in the ground really does work, cool! Thanks for being accessible, love your content , you with a handful of other bonsai pros inspired me to get into this wonderful practice.Now I have 25 trees in training and all doing very well. Best wishes from Pennsylvania USA!
Do you have any gardenia tree's
How'd the python rooted sycamore turn out?
I thought the UK were going back into lockdown...
Someone buy this man a tree moving dolly
