I really loved watching Corin working at the huge Pyracantha step by step. With that ugly straight bit gone, it really looks so much better. Let's hope that the rotten wood was taken away on time.
I love this tree! It started as a bit of a mess and when Corin finished, looked like the hand of Mother Nature reaching up from the ground. The trunk really took on the shape of an open hand. Amazing!
If i hadnt seen it with my own eyes i wouldnt have believed it, but you pulled it off ( no punn intended ) & now we all wait bated breath for the next instalment ...
Pyracantha is so hardy and I only have one so far. I think they're great, a bit dangerous if you get jabbed😅 but beautiful. Those make me so jealous. Great job dude.
That was amazing: the expertise, the technique, and the lucid explanations; what a wealth of knowledge to absorb. The part about the berries being cut off was so well done. It was exactly what I was thinking as a novice - it’s the best part of the tree! A true master artist at work.
BRILLIANT VIDEO !!! seeing you do this reminded me of my much younger years, lifting, moving, carving, and wiring. Now much older 80 and unable to do much I rely on others, luckily my mental capacities are fine.
Impressive chunky bit of mature trunk! I’m so proud of myself because I had the same vision of the final design, before you explained the removing of the straight trunk. Brilliant idea with the rock matching the hole left by the removed rotten wood. Thank you for sharing
such a fantastic transformation from a rotting Pyracantha to a unique looking bonsai tree, I'm looking forward to seeing the progress of this beauty! Once again, thank you Corin and Josh for taking the time and effort to make these interesting videos . . . XXX
I'm so in love with that tree! So happy you intervened when you did, what was "salvaged", with the rock, it's so cool, yes, can't wait to see what happens with it in a year.
Really interesting video as usual not your normal run of the mill stuff we have all seen before. I enjoy the more unique projects I can see a bright future ahead for that tree the tufa looked made to measure and looked good with the bark. Thanks to all involved 👍🏻
Bravo! GREAT work, Corin. That bit of moss in the final shot really is the finishing touch. It's a beautiful piece. Thank you for allowing us to watch you work, Corin! Thank you!
Nice 1 Corin n Josh made my day. It's a true education what you do nice to see the old girl get the love she deserves. be up soon to get some akadama and some of those lessons... Something to be said for knowing the craft and being brave with cuts Looks like the last in a long line of rescues for that tree Many thanks and all the best going forward
Thoroughly enjoyed that . Best channel on you tube the set up , filming and presentation is great Looks to have the makings of an ace tree that looking forward to seeing how it transforms and pics of it in flower and berry next year would be interesting
I confess I liked the top piece , but when you pointed out it's faults up close I got the picture ! Great lesson on what's not going to look good further down the line 👍🏻
Corin, the way you convert an eyesore into a pleasing work of natural art is astounding. And your camera manner and thought process is so relaxing and easy to understand. Can't wait to see how this little guy grows up. Happy Holidays to you and your family.
Since moving house a year ago I've been so busy renovating but these past few days I've been watching these videos recently and i cant wait to continue developing my few trees i started before i moved Thanks Corin and Greenwood
I had no idea that Pyracantha was that tough. I hope I don't kill mine overwatering it. I enjoyed seeing you carve it out, and painting it with a stain was quite a surprise for me.
VERY attractive results and expert transformation!!! The tree reminds me of 2 bull walruses (sans tusks) maybe just reaching the beach to bask and digest lunch, before a good nap! Wonderful bonsai! 🐟🦭🐟🦭 Best of the Holidays to All at Greenwood🎄🎄🎄🎅🏼
just came across your channel by accident, but watched maybe the first minute or so, im hooked. your newest sub i think! keep the vids coming buddy, we have to visit about trees soon.
Very interesting material. What a fun project! I think that left hand stump could be thinned out quite a bit to make it more elegant. Looking forward to see how it progresses.
Intrigued. Do we like the rotting hollow? Was the option to expose the carving ever considered? Or is that a bonsai faux pas? Get me, Japanese and French in one hit...
It could have been exposed and could still in the future. But so much was rotten it wasn’t as visually stable as when I added the rock. So that was my preference.
I love the blooper at the beginning and the fact you left it in , absolute legend .
I really loved watching Corin working at the huge Pyracantha step by step. With that ugly straight bit gone, it really looks so much better. Let's hope that the rotten wood was taken away on time.
As my Dad would have said, "That's making a silk purse from a sow's ear." Great work! Thanks for sharing!
Excellent cool bonsai
I love this tree! It started as a bit of a mess and when Corin finished, looked like the hand of Mother Nature reaching up from the ground. The trunk really took on the shape of an open hand. Amazing!
I'm looking forward to seeing how this one develops.
Thats a great bit of work and a cracking video.
Thanks Corin, for taking us along on the voyage to the bones of this beast!
It was very nice of you to prepare us inexperienced viewers for the cut you made at 18:00 😂❤
If i hadnt seen it with my own eyes i wouldnt have believed it, but you pulled it off ( no punn intended ) & now we all wait bated breath for the next instalment ...
Really looking forward to see this plant's development over the next few years.
Another excellent video presentation from Corin and Josh well done.
Hello Corin, Really enjoyed your working on the large pyracantha, hoping the best for it
That’s going to turn into something great if it makes it. Looking forward to the updates on this one over the years.
I could sit and watch your all day. You really are a talented guy. 😎
Wow, you are a magician , this is something else.
This was a really great demonstration!
Real life, brilliant!
Always a joy to see true Bonsai Master Corin at work.
Pyracantha is so hardy and I only have one so far. I think they're great, a bit dangerous if you get jabbed😅 but beautiful. Those make me so jealous. Great job dude.
I think this is your best video! Awesome! You had us mesmerized!
It's great that you share your thought process with us. An amazing outcome.
Of course, thats how I teach, and I hope thats how people learn. Glad you enjoyed it
Lovely work on the yamadori 👍🏼looks fantastic mate
Brilliant to see you make something out of challenging raw material, Corin! Loved the video! ❤
Great video this . Interesting from start to finish.
What a great transformation! Absolutely love your videos Corin
Glad you like them!
That was amazing: the expertise, the technique, and the lucid explanations; what a wealth of knowledge to absorb. The part about the berries being cut off was so well done. It was exactly what I was thinking as a novice - it’s the best part of the tree! A true master artist at work.
Thanks very much, really enjoyed doing this work and salvaging the tree
Thanks Corin.A very absorbing demo.
Brilliant video Corin & Josh!
BRILLIANT VIDEO !!! seeing you do this reminded me of my much younger years, lifting, moving, carving, and wiring. Now much older 80 and unable to do much I rely on others, luckily my mental capacities are fine.
Excellent demo...just what people.need to see planning for the future
Great transformation, one of your best videos.
Great work! I suspect you’ll have a real nice piece there in a few years.
Wow, wow, wow brilliant. Truly amazing looking forward to following its progress.
Thank you. More interesting and beautiful than when it came in. Definitely look forward to updates. Hello from Boston.
That chunk you cut off would make good topiary style flower arrangement.
Impressive chunky bit of mature trunk!
I’m so proud of myself because I had the same vision of the final design, before you explained the removing of the straight trunk. Brilliant idea with the rock matching the hole left by the removed rotten wood.
Thank you for sharing
AMAZING what an True Artist can envision, what a transformation!! 👏 Excellent Work 👍
Brilliant demonstration thank you. Already looking forward to the follow up😊
Wow that’s amazing. Superb transformation of what looked like something too far gone 😮👍
Thanks 👍
Nice results 😊
Excellent work Corin. You really turned what could have been a rubbish tree into quite an interesting specimen. I quite enjoyed this video.

Corin: I enjoyed watching your creativity with this tree! SoCal
Can’t wait to see this follow up. Great work. Knew the established growth was coming off and pleased I could see it.
Amazing transformation. Thanks, keep growing
Thoroughly enjoyed that . Best channel on you tube the set up , filming and presentation is great

Well done. Thank you for sharing.
Fantastic lesson in bonsai design, thank you.
It would surely be a unique massive based 3 trunks raft. Following its evolution. Thanks for sharing.
I know this tree will be amazing in 5 years, good job, mate😊
Great work, look forward to seeing how this develops.
“I could air layer it, but all I’ll get is a log with branches” 😂😂😂 Amazing
good to see how long you can expose the roots to the open air for this species
Great work.....
You have the touch! You really cleaned it up and gave it a new beginning. Can't wait to see it later. Don't forget to bring it back.
Corin, the way you convert an eyesore into a pleasing work of natural art is astounding. And your camera manner and thought process is so relaxing and easy to understand. Can't wait to see how this little guy grows up. Happy Holidays to you and your family.
Thanks very much, and thanks for the support
Since moving house a year ago I've been so busy renovating but these past few days I've been watching these videos recently and i cant wait to continue developing my few trees i started before i moved
Thanks Corin and Greenwood
Brilliant work thank you for sharing
Quite a lot of surgical work there … no doubt we will see it in a future video… 👩🏻🌾🪴
I would love to own that tree. The way you cut out the dead wood and made it look like it was growing on a rock was amazing.
What a transformation! Bravo!
Amazing transformation!!!
I had no idea that Pyracantha was that tough. I hope I don't kill mine overwatering it. I enjoyed seeing you carve it out, and painting it with a stain was quite a surprise for me.
That was amazing! A true bonsai artist at work Well done, mate
That is really a piece of art. Beautiful😍🌳👍
Remarkable Corin!
Great job corrin try and keep us us updated on it’s progress 😎Dennis
Its growing like mad, once its got loads of growth on, we will do another video late summer
VERY attractive results and expert transformation!!! The tree reminds me of 2 bull walruses (sans tusks) maybe just reaching the beach to bask and digest lunch, before a good nap! Wonderful bonsai! 🐟🦭🐟🦭 Best of the Holidays to All at Greenwood🎄🎄🎄🎅🏼
Brilliant. fantastic transformation.
Enjoyed this process and was intrigued with all the steps. So interesting and the challenge to get there was really great. Confidence
Glad you enjoyed it! - Check out the update on it here -ruclips.net/video/kNjs1dn3jpw/видео.html
Fascinating!! 💚
Really good video and thanks for sharing. Quite often this type of material makes the best bonsai 😊
just came across your channel by accident, but watched maybe the first minute or so, im hooked. your newest sub i think! keep the vids coming buddy, we have to visit about trees soon.
Superb tutorial 👍🙏
Wow ! that was such an amazing transformation and so much more appealing ! Great job !
Very interesting material. What a fun project! I think that left hand stump could be thinned out quite a bit to make it more elegant. Looking forward to see how it progresses.
Yes, once it has put some root out next year and is more stable.
I have trouble seeing the 'smallest tree' in the planning -- this helps
Intrigued. Do we like the rotting hollow? Was the option to expose the carving ever considered? Or is that a bonsai faux pas? Get me, Japanese and French in one hit...
It could have been exposed and could still in the future. But so much was rotten it wasn’t as visually stable as when I added the rock. So that was my preference.
A wonderful piece of art, that you made!
Nice yamadori bonsai ,thank you for sharing good luck Mr
Great video. Cant wait to see what this develops into.
I love it ,I hope it does well,
I think you got a diamond in the rough there. looking forward to the results.
Very, very enjoyable and educational!!! thank you
love it!!!
I think that Bill Valavanis must be proud!
Best bonsai artist on RUclips. Great videos and presentations.
Agreed 🎉
fantastic transformation. gives me inspiration to take some bold cuts on my material.
EXELENTE TRABAJO . QUEDO HERMOSA LA GRAN TRANFORMACION.
