This is Heaven! I could watch this a million times and still be wanting to watch it over and over again!

[@catherinebrown8577]

Such an incredible exhibition, truly awe-inspiring. Beautiful video Bjorn. And thank you Bjorn and Nanxi for such a wonderful tour! Everything was fabulous.

[@brachistochrone_5206]

Some great camera work to capture shots of some gorgeously crafted trees.

[@warrenvosper]

Thank you Bjorn! There are some truly amazing trees this year.

[@nosoundafter]

[@slingo1966]

Thanks Bjorn truly inspiring.

[@johngilbert939]

Thanks Bjorn, a great video and I hope Nanxi and you are having a great time with this years tour. It doesn't seem 12 months since I was there with you both; however, no hospital this time!!!! lol

Beautiful Trees!! 🌲🌲

[@briankavanagh7191]

Absolutely awesome trees.

[@robins9802]

Gracias por mostrarnos toda esas bellezas de bonsai

[@JCBerner]

great movie and excellent trees :)

[@t.regnerus301]

Those trees are really impressive. Some of them are quite large. They must weight over 100lbs with their pots.

[@adamtoth7474]

Definitely over 100lbs, some need 2, even 3 men to carry

[@khogenmeitei4579]

Bonsai

[@eeeealmo]

the maple @5:55 has some akira vibe going on

[@samuelsoto5297]

Sign me up for the 100th kokufu!

[@Tomeccho]

0:56 aesthetically very pleasing
3:09 Best In Show, a living sculpture!
3:20 Elegant, light, graceful; the shadows give the sense of light dancing on an underwater trunk
4:28 Dark embracing Light, Masculine protecting Feminine
5:12 exquisite balance, a dancer poised
5:48 ....uniquely disturbing, like a tumour; Jabba the Hutt in tree-form, unpleasant
7:27 lovely, symmetry ... symme-tree! ..but the pot is wrong proportions, too heavy, overpowering

[@cumulonimbus6579]

Please could someone help me identify the flowering plant at 3.43 ? Cherry? Apricot? Definitely NOT Ume. I need one of these !!

[@tomwoski]

Awesome trees! What species is the tree @6:05?

[@adamtoth7474]

Rose, kokufu winner. Absolutely stunning piece

[@tomwoski]

@@adamtoth7474 Thanks! Looks like I would choose it as winner too. Unusual piece.

[@deanchen6485]

8:03 is way too short........would probably spend half a day staring and pondering pacing up and down along just one isle :))

[@andrewbetrosian2784]

I'm trying.

[@banjopete]

Andrew Betrosian , very trying!!

[@danielkosta3134]

But keep trying.
