Poinsettia Bonsai Forest Pruning

In this video I work on my Poinsettia forest. I would like to repot this grouping in the late spring sometime to mainly better place the trees as a forest. Don't mind my finger in way ! It is a longer video but I was on bonsai time!

A great looking forest J!

Thank you Nigel, sorry my finger was in the way!

This is beautiful! I got a few at Home Depot and one off white one has a thick older base.

[@princessresinista9080]

I also got a few for gifts but pruned a few small branches for propagating. I hope to have a huge collection and make more people happy with beautiful flowers and leaves 😍 these make me so happy, especially on cold days. Outside is freezing but inside I’m getting tropical vibes ❤️

Nice video! I enjoy when you explain more about why you make your cuts. It allows me to understand the bonsai process better.
Thanks for the videos. :-)

Was looking for this update. It looks great! I like the funky look of the trees. This is an interesting speciment indeed

[@BonsaiJCan]

Thanks, they're definatly different!

[@toddstropicals]

Hey that looks great! They grow like mad weeds here, but they're leafy members of the euphorbia family and most of those turn into trees here.

[@BonsaiJCan]

Thanks Todd, That's interesting, I've seen them as trees in Mexico too. I cant wait to see what they look like in a few years.

Nice project!

[@BonsaiJCan]

Thanks, I hope it comes back well again and that I'm able to keep a lot of the trunks and branches I cut back. I'll try and keep my finger out of the way next time!

[@davidstam9535]

May I ask what soil you use was it bonsai or regular potting mix

[@BonsaiJCan]

Hi David I use roughly 50% turface and 50% purlite. Nigel Saunders " The Bonsai Zone" has a great video about this soil mix. I use the same soil he does.

[@davidstam9535]

@@BonsaiJCan thanks for the help Appreciate the great content!

[@LeobardoMartinezBautista]

Nice forest, I wonder how will develop in the future.

[@BonsaiJCan]

Hi Jorge, I hope it will only improve. It would definatly look better with my finger out of the way.

[@BonsaiJCan]

Thanks Andrei, it will be interesting to see what they look like in a few years.
