#bonsai #bonsaiprogression #hinokicypress
Good job Ben ! I would too remove that small bar branch. I like the natural beauty of it. You have come a long way. I still remember seeing how you styled trees when you first started. 😅 Thank you for producing these educational bonsai videos.
I have a small hinoki and I love the tree
Glad you showed how to prune them not done bonsai for even a year so this helps a lot
The cypress is now a sweet tree. I haver had a similar problem with mine for 15 years. Never quite sure how to progress but this vid has given me great direction and ideas about restyling it in the spring. It will take a few months to get it right but the start is here. Thanks for all the hints and ideas. Prince Edward Island Canada
BEAUTIFUL WORK BEN ! KIRK'OUT'PEACE
It looks sooo natural! Way to go! From the very first minute of that video I hoped you’d be taking that branch off - it was the right choice to make, the asymmetry it created gives so much character to the tree. Looking forward to its future development!
Awesome! You made some bold yet perfect decisions along the way! 👍🏻
Another great inspiring video. Thanks for sharing! Have a blessed day.
Love the cypress!!
As many of us, I can relate to having initial problems on selecting the options you have in selecting an initial design. Your patience and thoughts on the styling of it over the timeframe have given you a very nice tree. Oh, and you’ve given me a few good ideas on addressing one of ours.
I like how the tree came together,you did an awesome job!!!
Very nice bonsai video. Relief after all the fig tasting. Beautiful tree.
You did a nice job. They are not easy trees to work on, bark rips easily, branches are like wet rope in rigidity and they won’t back bud. Given all these challenges, I like your outcome.
Thank you for the inspiration!
The Showa Koi, new Hinoki Bonsai and happy children. Lovely trip to Seattle.
To be completely honest, I liked this tree way better in its original state. In my opinion that tree needed only some fine wiring. Anyways, even if I don't like the decisions and the chosen aesthetic, this is a job well done, congrats!
Great,,, great,,, great,,, cheers from Indonesia
Thank you for sharing. Great final result.
Awesome tree! Thanks for sharing the process. The tree before reminds me of some nearby forest trees, with the multiple branches going upwards towards the top. I guess the afterwards makes it look more professional and structurally sound. Though choices! Love it none the less.
So great and enjoyable video, Mr
excelent job, !
Loved this tree!
Magnificent!
Definitely right design for that Beautiful tree. I saw the potential in raw form because it had a natural habitat of growth that you did an excellent job Refining
I can't wait to see this.!
So beautiful Cyprus tree👍👌🤗🙏🏿
Like the progress of the design, Jin, and shape. Thanks.
Love it!
Beautiful
wow so beautifoll bonsai good work bro 😊❤❤❤
very nice tree, well done !
Hey Ben, I know what you mean, sometimes you put off working on styling when it's a tricky job! But you nailed it on this hinoki, the end result looks superb. And really looks like a large tree in nature... great work! Regards from Dave in Madrid
Good fish!
Rad tree Ben. Both cuts were a good move. I would just nix the upward jin's- upward jin's and downward or straight branches weird me out. Tree looks awesome regardless. Keep em coming!
Lovely tree mate
I bought a small Hinoki Cypress from a local nursery as a first bonsai subject, still waiting on materials before I dive in, however I did prune off a few bits that were dispurportunate or turning yellow-hope I didn’t make any errors. Not as well purportion Ed to start with as yours is.
Nice tree, I have a few Hinoki and it's hard, didn't learn till after I styled the first that they don't back bud, soooo ya gots to bend branches to shorten. Now that I know I am much more cautious as you were to fully removing any branches with foliage.
tree has potential for windswept but you have to cut that pas that is not left nor right of the trunk and then also reduce the length of your 2nd from the bottom pad if that lowest pad is your main direction of movement for the branches/foliage
Looks bad ass!
great job,,,,,
Nice!!
Very beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I'm glad you took off that vertical branch......it was bothering me. There is one more about half way up the tree that is obstructing the view of that major curve in the trunk line. You may have left it because removing it would have created a big gap in the foliage, but maybe you can develop some new foliage to replace it, or perhaps changing the angle of your front would clear the view of the trunk line and hide that secondary trunk (that you already removed the top of). Just something to think about if you want to create a tree that conforms to traditional Japanese bonsai form.......
Subbed! ,
Great video !
Great job on the cypress! Can we get an update on the sequoia?
I like it. I see you have delama with a few branches. Sometime I wish I have a pro/teacher to ask for opinions. Hey your tree turned out well.
Can you recall what cultivar of Hinoki this is? There are several but this one lends itself to some nice shaping. Hoping to add one of these to my collection this year and plan to start hitting up the garden centers. Thanks! Really enjoy your videos!
Nice work... tree and video, I purchased an hinoki cypress nana this summer as well but haven’t done anything but slip pot it as it was late summer at the time of purchase, I plan to start development this spring.your video was informative in that I wasn’t sure how much and how often I should trim. I don’t know what it will look like or how long it will take as I am a fan of the clip and grow methods, any pointers?
Hey Ben ! Love your koi . Been in the hobby many many years. The showa have some great sumi.
Do you have any good recommendations on which nursery’s have a good supply of pre bonsai? I am tired of going to places and not finding any good stock.
I am a recent fan of Hinoki & now have 4 in my yard. I did "Niwaki" to one so far & it came out good for me, a novice. They are a great tree. Even nicer was your Giant Seqoiya banzai. Is that tree a "keeper" & how is it today? Thank you, C. Griffin, MI zone 6.
Nice video! Thank you!I got a pot with three bobsai trees.Small trees. Should I keep them in one pot or I need to separate these trees.One is Hinoki Cypress? another is blue Sitka Spruce and last one is Japanese Cedar.
Like it but maybe would have kept that lower left branch on it just to possibly gain some movement there with time and then cut it off. That segment of the trunk is super straight.
So I have a question - I was told that one should not prune the Hinoki with scissors as it will cause some die back, but to pinch the fans back. Is this NOT correct after all? Thank you! (I hope someone will be able to answer this....)
Hi Ben. Love your channel.
Just found you...
Can i trim the fans also or would that leave them brown?
Hi ben, during winter what is the best way to keep this tree.? First time to have this tree here in northern america. Does it need to exposed to sunlight or bury on ground and cover it with snow?
I really like this tree. Maybe i would shorten the lowest jin. It looks kinda in the way a little bit.
Do you have an update on this tree?? I just bought one, haven't touched it yet.
👌
When is the best time to make cuttings for hinoki cypress?
How tall this tree Ben ?
Which nursery is that?
Realy like that tree tho
The befor had me but The after made me Feel i have no vision i would not have seen The bonsai hiding in The befor Stock evin Tho i loved The tree befor you started.
I can turn an ugly tree in to a nice bonsai but if i get a super nice pre bonsai i get afraid i ruin it and go kinda blind and that is why i normaly only save hopeless trees and never dare get a super nice One like The One in The video
I always choose the oldest tree for bonsai
Wonderful! I notice at 55sec the discoloration in the foliage of the cypress. Is this normal? Because mine is starting to discolour now
At 3:43 it mentions the coloration during winter, hence the name ‘hinoki’ (“fire”)
Ben, what are the dark things stuck into the soil? They look like the tops of railroad spikes. Are they fertilizer spikes?
Fertilizer pots
Ooo men I hear 👂., and we men spend so much time out side.,
Over all , what do you consider a good price for nursery stock , I mean it varies between species but just a general range
Varies by variety and caliper. 50 to 150 is a good range
If the tree gave you two paths at the beginning which made it unique and ended up with one branch, why not just buy a one branch tree to begin with, sorry I love tree with two sides, which it started out with.

Damn a bit too ruff to the tree. Would have taken myself some more time with that jin at the end ^^.

And remove that lowest eye poking branch
