Doesn't it make u wanna work on trees just from watching Peter ? 😁, thx for sharing Peter. Can't wait for the next one 👍.
I just love this man. I love watching him work. I love hearing him talk! Sometimes when I'm tense, I look for his videos to help me calm down.
Not boring I hope. I am very conscious of being a bore.
@@peterchan3100 Quite the opposite, Mr Chan! Its different from putting on debussy where I drift off. With you and your wonderful content, I get to ease up and regain my focus at the same time (I don't know if I'm making any sense). Maybe the word I'm looking for is 'inspire', no?
@@peterchan3100 NEVER a bore. You're a very wise man, and wisdom is boring only to fools.
@@peterchan3100 No sir. You explain very well. Thank you.
I would be really curious to see what a little DIY project like this can look like 2-3 years down the line. Thanks for the video!
Or 15, or 20.
Peter, you're an absolute gem.
Yes i do pot and prune my bonsai in my kitchen but only when my husband is at work. He would never tolerate the mess i make lol
Self recording is working rather well, the camera is auto correcting the colour balance when you stand behind the tree which isn't a big issue but you should be able to stop it doing that by disabling auto colour balance.
But let's be honest, the camera knows the real star here is the shirt :)
Ha Ha - The person who gifted this shirt to me will be pleased !!
@Peter could you show us some older tree which is made in a past and how they are looking now?
That would be awesome.
Peter Chan is the grandfather we all wish we had.
You can do worse having a grandfather that loves trees and things that grow! :)
22:57 "The more branches you have, the more options there are. If there are few branches, then the options are very much reduced. And if you have few options, then you cant make many choices"
This offer from herons is brilliant! I got the Alberta Spruce kit in December & wired it into a formal upright style. I was over joyed with the results! The pot and wire supplied are in themselves worth more than you pay for the entire kit! I hugely recommend ordering some! Peter your to kind to us!! 👍🌲
Good morning Peter. His videos are pure gold.
Thanks for this, Peter! I just went and bought a small cupressus goldcrest and made something similar our of it, but with a big question mark shape on the upper trunk. Love your channel!
Awesome shirt. Awesome plants.
Master Bonsai artist, and a master at passing on the craft.....doesn’t get much better than that for those of us learning how it’s done. Enjoy each and every video, and the step by step clear instructions. Boring? Never!
Thank you so much for sharing your enthusiam and love of bonsai. I have learned much from watching you and as you explain things so they are easy to understand. Would you consider keeping one or both of these trees you are working on today? I think it would be nice to know how to care for and style the tree as it grows.
Thank you Peter. As well as bonsais, I love horses very much. In the horse world, there is a saying thst goes: “don’t knock the curiosity out of a young horse”. With your method of teaching, you ensure this does not happen to bonsai learners. It is the best and more effective way to support beginners as you show and implement the principles, making this art form look easy and accessible to all. It’s just brilliant.
He was so excited to announce the Chinese New Year😂
Wishing I lived in the UK so I could order one of the kits, or better yet visit the shop!
新年快乐 长命百岁啊 Peter 每次看你视频都让我很平静，谢谢🙏 爱尔兰的粉丝
Hi Peter really enjoy watching your videos, the knowledge you have is amazing and wonder if you can plant yamadori deciduous tree only in sphagnum moss, as you recommended this moss even for unhealthy tree , rafts or air layering to get vigorous. Thank you
Yes of course
Thank you for always sharing. I made my first bonsai 2 months ago out of an Austrian Pine. It did not die and in fact it's shedding the old pine needles and bushing out with new needles now. I plan to do more bonsai and niwaki in my front yard.
Can I wire and prune it anytime of the year? Also, when do I remove the wires? I have just started this hobby and your channel has been very helpful.
Thanks for another great video. I have found it very overwhelming trying to make a start in this hobby, even with some other tutorial videos and books I feel more confused than when I began!
You do a great job of making making bonsai accessable, approachable affordable and attainable.
Hello and thank you from Alberta Canada Peter. Luv all your videos but I'm partial to Alberta spruce for obvious reasons lol..
I'm partial to Sitka spruce having lived in Sitka Alaska many years. There doesn't seem to be too much difference.
@@renevandenborre3629 There isn't much difference that I know of. Overall size perhaps.
A master class. Thank you for the detail, craftsmanship, knowledge and most of all, wisdom.
Hi Peter I sent an email to your shop site of my juniper like you requested.
Thanks
Kim🇨🇦
I will ask my PA to look out for it.
Great teaching ,for a current beginner,thank you.
Thanks a lot for this class!! Can't wait for next lesson!
Very nice educational video my master friend! From Philippines goodluck
Thanks a ton Peter
U make it look so easy
I treid working exactly like u
Placed my Ficus Microcarpa at eye level and it helped a lot
Finished the job min
Since I am in Hawaii, I love the fact that you know how to appreciate a good Hawaiian shirt! Thank you as always for an entertaining and informative video. That second closer position for the camera was perfect, and was brilliant for self-recording.
Tnx for all this free lessons.By medtitation and 5 tibetians practice,bonsai are great way to be like water on public space.
Excellent video peter 🙏🏼 and excellent work
Thank you....🙏 😔 🙏
Dr. Chan, this video shows the "beginnings" of a great bonsai. Thank you for showing some of us we have it. That is good to know. Just watch plants grow.
🙏 🖖 🙏 😔 🙏
I am a newbie here, i enjoyed and it's such a previlege to watch your concise demonstration of your knowledge. Thank you Sir for sharing.....👍👍👍👍
Question (and climate trend observation): After midsummer, here in the northern Midwest of the US, nursery stock is generally reduced in price as the July/August weather becomes very hot and transplanting season resumes in September/ October. It's easy to find bonsai specimens at that time, especially dwarf conifers. I really like the "scratch and dent lots" where damaged plants are very reduced in price. Should I wait to transplant these and hold them in their nursery pots until more clement night temperatures even if they are very root bound? I planted a dwarf birds nest black spruce (Picea mariana v nana), that was languishing, into a nice, deep clay bonsai pot. Should I have nursed it back to health before doing root work? It's very nice, and was very cheap, but was damaged and wilting. Now in shade but is casting its needles. Wait and see? ANY TRICKS TO HELP IT ALONG?

I wire so tight if i know that 1 wire will not be enough because i hate using another wire.
"I won't do any cutting yet" as he teased the tree with the shears. 😂
I don't understand why anyone would laugh at you. I don't know any personally, but if I did, I don't think I would like those kinds of people. You have a give for teaching. Thank you!!!
im autistic and was hyperfixated on bonsai when i was younger, i was never allowed to start my own bonsai but i always watched your channel, i finally started growing my own trees for bonsai recently and plan on buying some starter trees whilst i wait for the seeds to germinate, and so i have come back to your channel. it is such a comfort and very insightful, thank you for doing what you do! you made my childhood and hopefully will continue to help me on my journey with bonsai.
I feel so lucky that I found your channel few days ago. I am zero experience of Bonsai but I always amazed when I see one. Thank you for your videos and encouragement to beginners. I have more confident to try this hobby now. My question is do I keep these Bonsai indoor or outdoor?
I bought 4 picea from aldi, in the new year I will be putting this information from this video in to practice, thanks a million Peter, happy new year, and all the best from kieron
Hi Peter any chance you would show how to do a broom style bonsai for beginners if possible i think explain things well regards mark
How long do we leave wires on a picea? Will it retain the shape? I heard they usually don’t stay in shape for long
Thanks Peter. Nice to see beginners considered. 2 nice little trees.
I have wanted to do this for a long time. I came across your video and took the step and made my own! I am pleased with the outcome. I would post a picture but there is no spot to do so here. Anyway < thanks for the vid!
I'm growing my first. Thank you for teaching me.
I love these videos, bonsai has become my happy place. Thank you
can the cuttings your are pruning from these alberta spruce be rooted?
4'th, 🌲
Me? Make a mess while playing with my trees? I WOULD NEVER
Have you ever tried creating Bonsai using a coleus?
Thank you. Best Bonsai DIY.!!
Hi Peter. Thank you so much for your amazing lessons . Your teaching is so in depth and it’s easy to learn. It is truly enjoyable watching your videos, Keep them coming. And those who laugh at your ways of teaching let them. There are many who appreciate your videos. Thank you so much again. Stay blessed 🙏😊👍
Hi Peter, I have a small juniper that isn’t doing great. What should I do? It’s still alive but not a lot of green on it anymore.
Thanks
Kim🇨🇦
Has the foliage dried up ? If so, then it may have had it. Send us a pic.
This is masterclass..thanks granpa👏🌲
Great video! Thank you for your time!
Vous pouvez donner le nom latin du chritsmas tree ? Merci 🙏
Enjoy all of your videos. Very good job.
Where can I buy those wires?!!!!
Thanks Peter for your altruist teaching. We love your classes.
Let me just say, that the first time I bought a bonsai, It was in Mistral Bonsai (Spain) in april 2016, and what a concidence that you were giving a free exhibition there!
I didn't really understand much, as it was my first contact with bonsai, but it's magic got me.
I found your videos a couple of months ago and instantly remembered you from that time.
Couldn't be happier of having you as a virtual teacher now. I have lots of new bonsai proyects going on, and I'm bold than ever! :D
Cheers, and greetings from Huesca.
Hello, I'm new to your channel, Thank you for this wonderful channel and lessons, Oh as it happens my birthday is February 1st :)
Happy New Year old friend!
Beautiful change!!! I'd like to know where i can get those beautiful plastic pots...thank you for another fantastic video!!!!
Brilliant! Thank you so much! Please show the other projects too. And I’d love to learn about cloud pruning.
I like bonsai. Thanks for shereing
Thank you so much for your videos. I’ve watched so many of your videos over the last few weeks and I’m so excited at the thought of creating my own bonsai. I’ve even more excited at the thought of passing my bonsais down to my children. ☺️ thank you for this new found hobby
Moment I saw that beautiful red Hawaiian shirt, I knew its gonna be special.
Hail 🙏🙏🙏🙏 the Greatest teacher in the world.
I'm blessed I met you
Exactly what you want to find when starting out or broadening your collection... Thank you Master Peter Chan. for another excellent video...
You just make me smile. You are a wonderful teacher and if I ever come to England I will seek you out. Keep the awesome videos coming.
Peter chan thank you for introducing me to bonsai, what a cool man ✌✌
Amazing video! I must visit Your nursery when I will already go to Britain!
Thanks for this video. I've just tried to make a tree like these today. I'm waiting for the next one. See you :) !!!
Amazing change what you can achieve with just a bit of wire, cleaning branches and a bit of patience. Anybody can enjoy from creating a small bonsai at home now! Bonsai made easy for sure! Best.
Thank YOU! Great video ...it will get people involved in a great hobby! You are a hero and artist!
Thank you! Very informative. Some of us need all the encouragement we can get. Lol
This must have been the first time ever in my life that I saw someone wiring a ballpoint! I think it's a great idea and that it's very instructive. Personally, I can also recommend this specific Picea: it's quite ideal when you want to practice wiring and pruning and I do have a few of those myself. They're also cheap and also "keep you going": they never stop making lots of new budds... However, there is another reason why you will be invited to keep on practicing wiring: this species has the habit of trying to grow its branches upward again, even when you remove the wire after the branches have come into place, which could be after 6 to 12 months. Even quite old specimens do that, so you will have to expect some new wiring needed, after a while. But then again: a bonsaï is never "ready", isn't it? You could see it as a kind of a journey you make, together with your tree: a journey thrue time and you will both develop and reach new levels.
Perhaps an additional idea: watch mr. Chan's video about propagating from (heel-)cuttings. Heel cuttings from Picea Glauca root quite easily and you will not find them cheaper than that... Propagating from cuttings also gives your bonsaï hobby an extra dimension and an almost endless source of new material and experiments. And all of that, without stressing your budget!
Mr. Chan, I salute you and I am already, like so many of us, looking forward to your next video!
You are a true ambassador of mine.
@@peterchan3100 Thank you mr. Chan, I am really honoured. Although I am not a newbie in bonsaï, thanks to your instructions I managed to improve my soil mixtures with good results. But perhaps most of all, after many failures, I finally managed to propagate Japanese maples succesfully after watching your video on that quite a few times. And so I now have a lot of them, even quite a few Deshojo's (!), and it all gives me great pleasure. I am very well aware of the fact that they will not grow that fast because they are not grafted. On the other hand, in general I do like the smaller (shohin) bonsaïs even more than the larger ones (although I'm growing several of them) so that should not be too much of a problem. And of course, they will have a beautiful trunk from the beginning, with no graft marks at all and I will be able to manipulate their growth (formal or informal upright or even cascade) from the start. In two or three years, I will start a few little forests with them, amongst individual projects...
There is one very peculiar thing that I noticed from Deshojo cuttings, not from cuttings from other maples. I took several cuttings last year and that same year (late summer, begin fall) they rooted and grew a few leaves. One of them grew four leaves and made a few seeds already. Another tiny cutting which I made last year (late summer), has now rooted, is growing two leaves and also already shows a few seeds. I never ever saw that with any plant and it puzzels me, although it seemes to me that it is a good sign. They both are only a few centimeters tall! Does that sound familiar or is it just good luck? Of course I am going to give those seeds a chance, by the way: another experiment...
Congrats with 260.000 abonnees: that's about 10.000 more in not even two weeks, if I'm not wrong! That, I think, speaks for itself. I wonder what this BBC show will add to those numbers... Happy potting and repotting!
Could you please do some more content around the topic of ground sourced trees to use as bonsai, also the large one you recently decided to cut on your property.
I feel like there is alot of plant wastage that could be utilised with thicker ground grown things being harvested for bonsai instead of ending up in a woodchipper.
Mine arrived this morning I’ve made it and it has pride of place in my humble collection I love it
you got the sweetest soul sir!
Nice joob ! Merci 🙏🏻
Great inspirating, thank You Mr. Chan. Greatings.....👍👍
Meraviglioso .....

Great teacher!
Is there a way to buy the kits from the US?
Unfortunately not, import restrictions are too harsh.
Good
I am so angry, my bucket list of places to visit is growing faster than I can afford to travel, I NEED to travel to Herons to meet Peter Chan.
Are you in the UK or abroad? But visit when the lockdown is over.
