    Thank you Terry…great explanations on foliar pad and branch development. Larger specimens offer opportunities for terrific bonsai…the small dwarf trees - noted as beginner trees- often do not provide the enthusiasm for working with larger trees. Thank you for high lightening these pro cumbrance junipers. Appreciate it… pt in the Adirondacks of NY

    I’ve learned a number of things in your video. Now to apply them to two Shohin junipers we have been mulling how to redesign the overgrowth. Thanks.

    Thanks Terry! I’m in Australia and this species of juniper is extremely popular here. We call it juniper squamata. My collection has about 10 different styles of this species. It’s awesome to see some overseas content on this often overlooked bonsai candidate. Keep up the great work mate, your videos are so thorough, but simple to follow and easy to understand. You are a treasure to the bonsai community my man.

    • @TerryErasmusbonsai
      @TerryErasmusbonsai  Рік тому

      Ah man, that’s such a nice compliment! Thanks Ben. Yes I believe Squamata is the other name for this species. I will certainly do my best to continue to offer whatever knowledge I have to the community so we can all learn, including myself to improve our trees.

    • @TerryErasmusbonsai
      @TerryErasmusbonsai  Рік тому +1

      Yeah, you need to leave them alone for a while and then they start to put it on but touch it again and it puts out needle foliage again if stressed.

    Procumbens is the best juniper for beginners. They endure it all and they bush up and look full in no time. Its so easy to get results

    • @TerryErasmusbonsai
      @TerryErasmusbonsai  Рік тому +1

      Procumbens is good for all skill levels. They are tough as nails as you say. Procumbens, not the nana variety is probably my least favourite though.

    • @TerryErasmusbonsai
      @TerryErasmusbonsai  Рік тому

      thanks so much! I don’t know the history of the tree I would just say that it must be pretty old as it belonged to a pioneer in South African bonsai. When he passed away my customer bought it. I have since restyled the tree.

    • @TerryErasmusbonsai
      @TerryErasmusbonsai  Рік тому +1

      Thanks Dj. I work fairly fast but it took me 15hrs. Projects like this can be a mental marathon for those not used to tackling jobs this big. It’s easy to lose focus and start rushing things towards the end. I did it over 2 days. I don’t like doing the work over an extended period either as it’s difficult to “stay in the zone”. Once complete it’s very satisfying though.

    • @TerryErasmusbonsai
      @TerryErasmusbonsai  Рік тому +1

      Hi Hamurga, if you are in South Africa (I somehow think you are?) then you can order seedlings from me. They will be ready for you in late spring. My seeds are legally imported from Japan, from a pine grower in Takamatsu. I don’t sell the seeds. If you’re interested you can contact us via the website.

    great works, but Procumbens & Squamata juniper are 2 "differents trees", Procumbens & procumbens nana are complety different of Squamata Juniper (more know it as "juniper San Jose") I think this specie is a Squamata, not Procumbens

    • @TerryErasmusbonsai
      @TerryErasmusbonsai  Рік тому

      Thanks Cristian for your views. I have never seen a Squamata for sale in South Africa. So either every single nurseryman and grower is wrong or it’s not a Squamata.
