Pruning My Arakawa and Field Maples, The Bonsai Zone, Dec 2024

[@CoffeeandBonsaiwithTom]

I always love the first snow - it's bittersweet to know that Winter has finally arrived, but that also means that Spring is that much closer!! Thanks for sharing - so beautiful everything blanketed in white.

Small steps, great progress. Nice work as always.

The hazard of a “growing” hobby is always running outta space! 🥁🥁 🛎️
Lovin the discipline, one to two, skip one, sacrifice pair, snip.

You could do air layer on Arakawa on that tick branch and put that rooted air layer together with that two and make nice clump style .

[@dahlmasen3084]

I don’t think we’ll ever see Nigel doing an air layer though

Isn't now a strange time to cut deciduous trees? Why not wait till end of winter?

[@benparsons7197]

Hi Nigel, what soil composition do you use in your developing bonsai pots? Cheers

[@mattbrennan647]

45% safty sorb (premium calcined clay all-purpose absorbents designed for the quick clean up of water, oil and grease and made from Montmorillonite Clay, a naturally occurring mineral with superior absorptive ability.)
45% perlite
10 % fine bark (repti bark)
Good luck 👍🏻🍀

[@benparsons7197]

@mattbrennan647 thank you very much
