I received a nice kabudachi Red Sentinel JM pre-bonsai from Ed Clark this winter, and I'm excited to get to work bringing it into form. Thanks for the inspiration! Already seeing some great maples in your Kyoto location!🪴🍁

    • @TheBonsaiGarden
      @TheBonsaiGarden Год назад +3

      I imagine Deshojo, shin Deshojo or a Beni Maiko would be superb for that. They have the vivid red leaf and the bark tends to be lighter grey as they age - though often helped with jin fluid/lime sulphur.

    Hello,
    Great video as always- Thank you. Quick question: Can we do this kind of work in December, knowing the cold weather is coming or is it better to do this in the end of Feb / March? Even with cut paste, I always assumed to wait for begining of spring?

  • @bullpaintbullpaint8439
    @bullpaintbullpaint8439 Год назад +1

    Bjorn I have a question regarding the use of Lime Sulphur, did you make it yourself or is it commercial?
    Watching the video I have the feeling that its texture is very thick and its color is practically white like milk.
    My Lime Sulphur however is orange in color.
    I really liked the technique of applying it to the trunk to age it.
    Best regards and thanks for the video.

    a great and very interesting continuation with a lot of important information.

    Many thanks and greetings!

    15:33 The main trunk bother me a lot, i want to cut that thing.
    18:00 i like the one on the left. but I think it's good contrast if we put it side by side like this, so we can keep the main trunk for the one on the right side. XD
    and for the wedge, using a bamboo is kinda better IMO.
    ty for the share.

    10/10 I dont understand the Japanese aesthetic choice of putting lime sulfur to whiten their tree. But then you mention about covering up the old scar on the tree. It reminds me of Geisha that wears those white make-up. Maybe thats why.

      Most deciduous trees will fuse but JMs seem to fuse faster than most for some reason. I think because they are pretty vigorous.
