Girl wires are cuter than guy wires 🤭
Hahaha yes you're right! For that scene I was planning to film my daughter spiral-wiring a branch, but in the end I couldn't afford her financial demand for being in another video!😂😂
Brilliant! Especially loved seeing when NOT to apply this technique. Super helpful for us newbies!!
Thanks Sue! Glad you enjoyed it. When I first started doing this video I couldn't decide whether to put the NOTs before or after the technique. I hope I got it the right way round.
Great video as always Dave! That 3d wizardry was next level. 👍
thanks Ian! I had to learn some new software for that 3D model, not sure if I'll do that again! pruning and repotting is 100% more relaxing 😊
I've always wondered how dome tops were made. Thanks for the lesson
thanks - I'm glad I could explain it for you!
😮 WHAT!!! 😮
Great video Dave.
Always superbly thought out, executed and edited. Some insane technical stuff going on here. Truly inspirational. 🙏
Ahaa so it did surprise you!! 😂
Thanks Jason I really appreciate it.
The problem with this style of video is the half century it takes to construct and edit... but I had to give the 3D model a try. It was fun to do even if I decide not to do bother next time!
You know is a good day when Dave uploads a video! Perfection as always! Thank you for shearing your knowlegde!
Thanks so much! I really appreciate your comments.
Just wondering about the wording on the thumbnail on this video... did the technique surprise you?
@@BlueSkyBonsai as a beginner. I dident know about this technique. And I always have wonder how i am going to make the top of my trees. So now i know. Thanks
@@thenaturecreater8906 brilliant - I'm so happy to hear it was helpful.
That is some slick info, Dave! Thank you for the big knowledge drop again!
I’m diggin the warthog chalk board. You got a laugh outta me with the girl-wire comment…ha!
I sure do appreciate you, brother.
Thanks Billy! I bet that girl wire comment has been said many times before but hey it just fit in that moment perfectly... Btw how is your Fukien Tea tree getting on?
@@BlueSkyBonsai it’s kickin tail, thanks to you. Even with the minimal sun I’m gettin this time of year on top of the globe. I’ll send you a pic or two on the other side!
Over the top!
Virtual blackboard TM was very effective in grasping the technique, then it was a breeze to follow your steps on the olive!
A few more years before I’ll be ready for this… but here I come!😊
Thanks Stefano! Yeah that 3D animation and the virtual blackboard took about 6 weeks to learn, construct and perfect... not sure if I'll do that in a video again!
@@BlueSkyBonsai sounds just the right thing to do for a video: well done! (And I can understand why you’d rather not do it again!) indeed a pleasure for the viewer!
@@sbragaglia thank you! Well I'm glad my efforts have been enjoyed anyway 😊
Excellent video, very informative. Also love the new "janitor" (spider)😆.
Thanks so much! Yes it's always good to keep a spider on each bonsai. (But not my doing! they just appear and make their own home...) It's pretty curious how each tree has one spider. I guess they're quite territorial creatures...
Hi Dave, was getting concerned about not seeing anything from you for a while , glad to see this today 👍
Hi John, thanks, yes I've had a tough summer for a few reasons but it's good to be back with this video!
The best explanation you will find on the internet of how to create an apex. Well done Dave
Thanks Kumarlo, I appreciate that!
Haha, I didn't watched your videos for months, I was shocked in the first scene how you skyrocketed your garden up haha. Good you mentioned from the beginning that it's not yours ...
Hahaha now that would have been something to show off! Yes I needed to say where I was, don't want to make any false pretences... nor did I want to offend David Benavente of course 😊
Welcome back. Fantastic content (as usual) Thanks, keep growing
Thanks Matt, good to be back!
Informative video thank you.😁👍🏼
thanks for your comment! 😊👍
Superb video. Many thanks !!!
thank you so much!! 😊
Another very informative video. I agree, would rather do guy wiring vice wrapping limbs, especially the thinner/developing ones. Liked that you mentioned style and trunk tapering to get your crown and pad development. Bringing it all together.
Thanks Jeff. Ideally I would have liked to show the end result of the apex on this oleaster, but we'll have to wait a couple of years for that 😊
@@BlueSkyBonsai Have always appreciated and enjoyed seeing the work after a few years. Thence visually tiring the work done and the resulting aspects.
Great video as always! Keep up the great work!!
THANKS so much!!
Very informative. Showed me where I was going wrong with a couple of Juniper trees I’ve just started with. Thanks.
Thanks Brian, so glad you found it useful.
Yay! Finally new Content Once again i am stunned by your video / editing and sound quality. Great Animation aswell 👍🌳
Thank you so much 😀 glad you appreciate the parts that maybe some others did not notice!
Satu kata, saya beruntung mendapati channel ini, banyak inspirasi bonsai yg saya peroleh, terimakasih
Terima kasih, saya juga senang Anda menemukan saluran saya, salam dari Madrid
Xin chào bạn. Tôi đến từ Việt Nam. Quá tuyệt vời
Cảm ơn rât nhiều ! thanks very much! Greetings, lời chào từ Madrid
Thanks, very well explained!
Thank you! 😊
Thanks for this video. It has helped begin to fill a big gap in my understanding. Would be great if you could reinforce with a couple more actual examples on different trees. Thanks again. Richard
Thanks Richard. Yes I was thinking of adding the similar work on my itoigawa, but in the end I needed to keep this video shorter... unfortunately you can see viewers dropping off as soon as the animation finishes.
The itoigawa work will probably go into a video next year.
Thanks for your helpful feedback! 👍
Dave's Metaverse becomes real life!
Haha thanks Nigel, I wonder if my metaverse tree is actually a simulation within a simulation??
Btw I saw a different sci fi recently that I thought you might like, it's called Space Sweepers, worth watching if you have a couple of spare hours. I wasn't previously into Korean films or series but this was a very pleasant surprise!
@@BlueSkyBonsai Thanks Dave, I'll check it out!!
Very cool video this is definitely where I'm at in my game. I've got plenty of established material piscillas and hanokis to work on :) thanks and cheers for Knoxville Tennessee
Thanks, glad to hear you enjoyed the video. Hope it's not too cold there, can't go outside for bonsai work here in Madrid at the moment... too cold and wet
Hey Dave! Great video! This is one of the best videos I've seen on developing an apex!
Hey Adam, thanks! That's very kind of you! I dare say other artists have surely made more complete tutorials on the subject, but I just felt the need to use a 3D model to show the technique... in books they always show it in 2D...
Awesome informative video, as always! You run one of my most favorite bonsai channels. Keep up the great work and keep the videos coming 😁
thanks so much! now that is quite a compliment! the videos will keep coming for sure, but I can't say how long till the next one... maybe quicker if I don't put in a 3D model again! 😂
@@BlueSkyBonsai well to be honest, the 3d model is a great addition for sure but I loved your previous sketches almost as much😋
@@KrizzaOne thanks again.. perhaps will return to the 2D whiteboard next time!
Excellent explanation as always. Mate, do you have never considered make a Tanuki.?
Thanks! Yes I've been planning a tanuki for the last year, just haven't had the time to do it. Will get round to it someday, maybe in spring. Thanks again!
The diagrams are very helpful to visualize ! Thanks !
@@christowalsh8220 thanks! Glad you find them helpful!
Hello again...this made it all very clear. It's not something to be scared of after all, and I don't even really need to wire the top down, because the branches are already flat. It's a Picea Abies 'Ferny Creek Prostrate', informal upright, about 15" high and quite a lot wider.
I want to thank you for sharing all this knowledge; it's amazing what you can find on the internet!
You've got some lovely trees there, just goes to show you know what you're talking about. Thanks again.
Hi Dave! Stunning videography! Explanations on point, wonderful editing! I will definitely try this dome shape on my olive bonsai i purchased very very cheaply for that it is around 20 years old. I love the 3D model it helped to understand your point a lot better! Which software did you use? I love when you show real pictures or videos of bonsai to underline your explanation. Looking forward to the next video! Btw i really liked your horticulture videos and all the graphics about how to prune or how a tree actually functions, looking back at like literally every video i binged on your channel the only thing i didnt like were your flipchart markers which were empty :P once ill have some money and be out of debt i will send you some! Greetings from Switzerland, Simon.
Thanks so much Simon for your great review! I created the 3D model using clara.io, it took a few months in my spare time to learn and construct the model.
I had decided that it would be easier to demonstrate the apex technique in 3D than 2D drawings but hadn't realised how much longer it would take!
Yes in some ways I prefer doing the horticultural videos because they are based on repeatable scientific method, with predictable results. The artistic techniques are hard to replicate exactly ftom one tree to the next, since every tree is a different world and potentially a blank canvas.
Btw I agree about those awful squeeky whiteboards, they were so bad that afteg doing those videos that's why I decided to go to the virtual whiteboards.
Thanks again!
Hello Dave. Glad to see your vidéos again. Muy interesante, y el 3D nos ayuda mucho para entender la técnica. Well done.
Hasta luego y que no nos hagas esperar tanto tiempo. Muchísimas gracias.
Saludos desde Francia.
Hola Christophe, thanks as always for your kind comments. Me alegra que te ha gustado el modelo de 3D! Saludos
God job👌thank you for sharing it Godbless you🥰
Thanks for watching! You too! 👍
Great explanation 🙏
Thanks so much! 😊👍
I’ve been struggling to work out Apex on some of my trees, this video has been really helpful! Many thanks, keep up the good work
Thanks! Glad you found it helpful. Yes the upward strut is sometimes what fools us, but literally bending that down horizontally is most of the trick here.
Hi Dave, another educational video. Nice to see a video of Blue Sky Bonsai again. Greetings from the Netherlands
Hi JMM, thanks, glad you found it educational! I'll show this tree in another year (or maybe 2) then we can see how the apex has grown over...
Great video - thank you!
good video😍😍😍
Thank you! 😊
Thank you, I have been struggling with the Apex question, this simplifies it a lot!
Thanks Zombie, glad I could help! Yes I see a lot of people are confused about the apex, that was the inspiration for this video. Cheers!
Thanks for the tip !😊
You're welcome, hope ir comes in handy!

Cám ơn rất nhiều! Vườn cây cảnh lớn trong video này thuộc về David Benavente.
Great video! Thank you very much for sharing 👍👍👍👍
Thanks Roberto! Glad you enjoyed it! 😊👍
Hello Dave! Nice seeing you again. :) My trees are all getting ready for winter. Only the apple trees, oaks, and elms are still green. :D And they're all way too young for any of these hacks yet. :P But they're growing strong and tall. :) Though I had to cut some of them because of mildew. I got the worse "infection" of them this year. Still, they're growing pretty well, and I just hope it won't stunt the growth of the ones I had to cut too much.
Hi Syster! Nice to hear from you, I'm so glad to hear all your mini trees are doing well.
Mildew, it's annoying and a bit unsightly, but thankfully is one of the least dangerous leaf molds. Removing leaves that are infected is okay and shouldn't affect the long term health of the tree. Some of my oaks get mildew, and I don't bother removing the leaves unless they have a different fungus (yellow spots) which oaks sometimes get. What you could do next year is get a plant-friendly anti fungal spray, and spray them in late spring after the new leaves have hardened off, then early summer, then late summer and hopefully the mildew won't get a chance to reappear.
Ps. Daughter's 2 turtles doing well and growing bigger! 😊
@@BlueSkyBonsai I got both the mildew (which spread to almost every tree) and the one with yellow spots as well this year. I sprayed with a fungicide, but it leaves such ugly white spots on the leaves, so I don't really wanna use it if they don't have fungus on them already. :/ I think the issue is that they're on a glassed in balcony, and the air is too still.
Any suggestions for fungal sprays? I'd love to try it, if I can find one that isn't making them look ugly, or is too dangerous to our dog. Did I tell you we got a dog?
Aww, that's great to hear. :) Turtles are very cute. :)
@@SysterYster I use an antifungal spray that's quite mild so I actually do it 3 times in two weeks. But it doesn't leave any white marks or problems on the leaves. It seems that three times are necessary to remove the mildew, but that works ok.
I still carefully remove all the yellow spotted leaves to avoid that fungus spreading. I also found ants on one Portuguese oak with yellow spot, so I suspect the ants might be spreading the fungus- maybe even intentionally as food?? Don't know, but I put some ant powder around the base of all the oaks' pots after that, removed the infected leaves in early September and thankfully it hasn't returned.
The fungicide spray is called Algoflash fungicida polivalente, it's made and sold here in Spain. I have another called Jardinero Verde fungicida fungiben lu, also made in another part of Spain, with similar results. They don't smell good so open a window for 5 minutes after spraying. They are not good for animals, but I guess that's only an issue while the spray is still wet on the leaves. After all I have been using these for years and it hasn't affected me! But then I don't go licking my bonsai leaves like a dog might do 😂😝
Enjoy your dog!! We sometimes consider getting one but for various reasons we won't. Maybe when all the kids have grown up and flown the nest 🥰
Sure did for me! Thanks so much for your great vid
Thank you Sue! What surprised you - how easy the technique is?
@@BlueSkyBonsai How easy - and how impactful. Can start seeing a dramatic effect in very little time (species dependent of course). Really looking forward to using it when my young trees get to refinement. Great tool for the tool kit when that time comes!
@@sueb1317 that's graat to know - thanks again!
Vidio yg sangat luar biasa kawan..!!!
Terima kasih banyak!
Just curious as what software you used for the animation? Did it come with tree models?
I used clara.io - there are a couple of tree models but they are terrible so I created this one from scratch. I took me about a month.
I like your videos, I am still confused about bonsai soil. I have akadama and kiryuzuna, I would like to use it for indoor bonsai, how I can mix them. Should I add some things else on them? Please help me.
Thanks!
For soil I use approximately 2/3 akadama and 1/3 kiryuzuna. For trees that need more water retention I add some chopped pine bark - but that's only outdoors here in hot Madrid. For indoors, your akadama + kiryu mix will be perfect. You should also use some liquid fertilizer diluted in the water every couple of weeks. HTH
Thank you so much for your sharing.
Every day is a school day, some good advice that I will be using soon,thanks
Thanks Kevin! When I was young the school only had blackboards and chalk...
How do you maintain the wind swept look? Grow on the angle?
There are a few things you can do, including wiring, removing backward facing shoots, and tilting up the pot so that the growing angle is a bit more vertical for most of the year. I did a video on this a couple of years ago if you're interested: ruclips.net/video/ET7KC4hcvEQ/видео.html
Really nice 💐💐❤️
Thanks very much! 😊
Awesome video as always Dave! Missed your vid’s and glad your back! 😊
Thanks Jeff, I really appreciate it!
Great Video! Can you tell me the Name of this software?
Thanks! Clara.io - it's amazing. I spent quite some time in summer learning how to use it and constructed this model from scratch. It took weeks.. but I am very satisfied with the result. Wish it had got more views though!!
Great video!
Thanks Falk!
Your movie quantity is low but you make up for it in quality - great stuff.
Thanks Dave! Yes I'm not publishing as many videos as I used to, perhaps I need to cut corners on the quality, problem is I'm a bit of a perfectionist so I spend waaaay more time than I should on minor details and editing ...
Great video friend..👍💚
Thank you very much! 😊
@@BlueSkyBonsai u're welcome...🙏
excellent explanation. thank you.
Thanks Christopher I appreciate it!
Hallo sir greeting from Indonesia 🙏
Hi there, and greetings from Spain! 😊
Do you use regular soil or bonsai soil if you train a plant to be a bonsai in a big pot ? :)
Bonsai soil is quite expensive to use on developing trees, especially akadama, kiryuzuna and kanuma - I save these for my developed bonsai, which are mostly in smaller pots. For developing trees in big pots I still use granular soil because I have observed that it allows the most healthy root growth. So I use a mix of cheap non-clumping non-scented "pink" cat litter, cheap pumice, some perlite, some lava gravel, all seived to about 5mm (1/5 ").
It's a mix that I have been recycling and reusing for about 10 years now - each year I add in the used soil from repots and seive out the dust and fines.
Can u make a video on how to make a acer palmatum to bonsai?
Good idea. Someday I'll do that! But don't hold your breath, my videos take a long time to make ...
👍👌🙂
Hi, Blue Sky. I just started my journey with bonsai thanks to your channel, and got a japanese maple. The issue I currently have, is that I have no idea how to start shaping the tree.. I would love to have some tips for this!
Hi Mr Cow, It's great to know that you and others are getting into bonsai in relation to my videos. It's a truly fulfilling hobby as well as natural, therapeutic and artistic. Be prepared: You will almost certainly kill a few trees accidentally at some point - it can happen to any of us. But as a hobby once you're hooked, it will stay with you for the rest of your life.. and that is a GOOD thing!
For styling your new JM. Autumn is not the best time to do it - enjoy the leaf colors and wait several weeks after leaf-drop. Then you can prune the branches without jeopardizing the tree's health.
For general philosophy on why and how to prune your bonsai please see this video: ruclips.net/video/cOGAJ5iqWfk/видео.html
For winter pruning tutorials, please see these videos:

ruclips.net/video/JoRjIxCbfbk/видео.html
Hope that helps!
@@BlueSkyBonsai thank you so much!! Is it recommended to try and make new trees out if certain branches that I prune?
@@MrCow579 yes it's a good thing to do, to propagate your tree with cuttings, but keep in mind that most JM cuttings in winter do not root for at least 4 to 6 months. So you could try to plant a few cuttings in water-saturated soil, but also be prepared because many of them fail and don't strike roots. It's a bit hit&miss.
@@BlueSkyBonsai That's okay! I'll try to see if I can make it work. I'd rather have them fail than to throw them away to begin with. Any extra cutting that does work, is a bonus! :) Thank you so much for your knowledge!
👍👌
Hi Dave, sorry usually see you informative video when you post it. But anyway your video is superb and very well presented. 10/10
Hey Aussie Dave! I'm glad you made it here, thanks as always for your kind words! Hope all is well with you.
@@BlueSkyBonsai hey mate, spring time here in Australia 😃. So plenty to do. I have started some tanuki style, but wondering if you have a video on tanuki style 😉 🤔. You would produce a fantastic video. 😉
@@davidmorgan3508 Thanks for the suggestion! I have a dead juniper from this summer's heatwave so I was planning to use that for a small tanuki in spring. That means no tanuki videos from me for probably 6-12 months, depending on results, maybe 18 months! ☺️
In the meantime I have some other horticultural videos in the pipeline.... but don't hold your breath, my vid production rate is clearly not very quick 🙄
Wow! Thank you for the lessons! I wish the Hogwarts black board also came with a time travel. "And like everything in Bonsai, be prepared to wait a few years" Wise words hit hard!
You're welcome! And that's a good point about time travel and waiting. But, as I get older, time passes faster and a few years seems to come around quite quickly. Maybe also with too many trees it's quite easy to direct my gaze elsewhere for a few years 🤔
@@BlueSkyBonsai how many are too many in your garden? just curious, i'm one year in and building quite a collection, 95% free of charge😊🤪😜
@@howardmckeown7187 Ultimately it depends on your overall circumstances, I have more than 100 potted trees and it's really too many for my current life situation. On the other hand, I really enjoy the time I can spend working on them, so I figure some day I'll have more spare time and will easily handle this many, and more...
@@BlueSkyBonsai thanks for the reply, good luck
Love it!
Thank you so much mate for just outlining the clear concept of what to aim for. So many times people will show you what they’re doing but not the reasoning
You're welcome, thanks for your great feedback.
