The close-ups of cutting the branches. I REALLY appreciate that. And the wiring.

Well done Terry great tree.
I also love the look of the twin trunk if it was spun 90 clockwise

Thanks Sam! Yes well spotted. I have also noticed there is definitely potential for other fronts. Will see how the tree evolves and perhaps we will select one of them. Thanks for the comment.
I’m looking forward to seeing it again in the future
I look forward to featuring it again in the future! Thanks for watching.

@@TerryErasmusbonsai I think, taking into account your language, you're one of the top 5 english channels in bonsai. You should have thousands of susbcribers.... just a personal opinion.
Nice work as always Terry.
Thanks for watching Bradley, and for your compliment!
Thanks
Christopher, just wanted to thank so much for the donation. Cheers!

Thanks Arno!
Wow. What has happened on the bonsai side of the internet is, we have one guy who says all his bonsai's are 50 years old. Another who has awesome bonsai but the lower branches are thin so the tree looks unnatural. Another who just cuts like he is cutting a hedge and everyone thinks he is the greatest. And then there is you who I think is the master of all. I had a bonsai lesson as a kid at a Pick n Pay and he thought me directional pruning. You are one out of how many videos I watched thas talks about directional pruning. I used to have so may trees when I was in South Africa. Sold my trees and then saw one at a bonsai show on Facebook. Anyways you are a very good bonsai teacher.
Gee thank you Joseph, you flatter me too much I assure you! That's quite a story, learning bonsai at a Pick 'n Pay! So you left SA, where do you live now and did you get back into bonsai there?
@@TerryErasmusbonsai There was a guy who went around selling his trees inside Pick n Pay and he was offering lessons. He was a bonsai gypsy always on the move. Never seen him again. My mom had let me go for a lesson and then from then on I have been self taught. I have some starter bonsai again. Have found some trident maple and elem trees in the Forrest. I now live in New Zealand
I would love to have an olive tree bonsai. But I’m in Indonesia, any issues you could foresee being in a tropical climate ?
I don’t know Bule, sorry. If you can get them where you live then I assume it is possible to grow them. Ask around though and see what you can find out.
What are the little brown plastic baskets on the the soil for?
Those are fertiliser baskets. You can put loose fertiliser in them and it will not wash away when watering.
@@TerryErasmusbonsai Thank you! :) Seen them in videos and been wondering for awhile.
