- In this video I take some raw material like cotoneaster, buxus, hinoki cypress, pine, cuttings and create shohin bonsai. I then move onto some slightly larger material.
There is also a guest appearance from our friendly and delightfully tame Robin. A rare treat on video.

“Just as in life, there’s no such thing as a person with no potential. Everyone has potential!” Peter Chan is a treasure to the bonsai community and to the world. Great video!
This is Bob Ross style of wisdom right there with the same air of calm. I enjoy Peter's videos mostly for the wisdom and the sense of peace with nature and the world. It has been recommended to me to tune in to his channel as a form of meditation and it really has done wonders for me. His videos are of course a goldmine of horticulture/bonsai advice but for someone like me who is unlikely to actually go on to grow bonsai it's the simple pleasure of watching him work and speak about life and nature that makes me go back to his channel any time I need an uplift 🥰 Peter Chan is indeed a national treasure!
@@agz1302 I was just about to say, “he’s the Bob Ross of bonsai!” But I guess I’m not the first to notice it!
"I'm not a Bonsai master," no you are a Grand Master! Great post
Ha Ha !

I'm afraid to say my very higlight is the cute little robin joining the show and snacking some fruit on the go. The rest is - as always - very informative and highly motivating, but the robin sets this video apart. ☺
You will never know how your videos have helped me. Not only to create a better bonsai but to feel better about myself and those around me. To me you are a bonsai genius and an individual who sees potential in everyone and everything. Thank you so much.
Separating two trees in one pot.
Me: manipulate carefully with chop sticks for 30 minutes. Both trees die.
Peter Chan: Grab with a double fist and rip apart. 2 beautiful bonsai.
Some people just have this extra green thumb and they can basically don't do anything that would kill a plant.
I think the point was they were a few years old thus he could handle them so.
@@DieAlteistwiederda I look at a plant funny and it wilts
You don't know if the trees survived ;)
Too funny. I too have noted how aggressive he is with his specimens. Me? Probably just like you. I have not even attempted bonsai yet, so we'll see.
Aww I used to have a little robin at work. He would jump at my pockets because he knew I had seeds in them. He would also bring his babies to me for some extra food :)
That little bird really likes your work. She's been in a couple of videos. Thanks for catching that footage and not cutting it out. Good job camera guy. Thank you.
Actually, she's been in quite a few videos. If you listen you can hear her singing in the background of most of the greenhouse videos.
@@emmitstewart1921 I keep getting the feeling that it's Peter's wife checking in on him some how. Just doesn't want to be seen or interrupt.
@@emmitstewart1921 I didn’t notice cause I don’t really pay attention.
One of the workers in a previous video called it "Bruce"! Lol
Have you seen Peter toss him a worm? It’s very sweet!
He's the Bob Ross of plants
TOTALLY!! Yes!! Such "happy little trees"... :)
he certainly is great description lol
I was thinking the exact same thing! Bob Ross of Bonsai!
Tortured little trees, but if they swing that way...
nope, he is quite brutal...
I think my this is my favorite Peter Chan video to date. The robin stealing the fruit from the tree at the very end was icing on the cake.
Oh that bird was adorable, thank you for leaving that in!
Your videos open my eyes to potential and build my confidence. Sometimes when styling, I ask for your opinion and can hear your response in my mind... with your voice. Thanks Peter.
Your statement is so true! I hear the same voice - what should i do?? Peter’s voice in my head - Oh just chop it off. No bother. Look how beautiful now. :)
@@carlbroussard8428 "Sometimes u Just have to bite the bullet" "Always Look From all Angles, U never know what u will find" "there are Always multiple solutions, Just find Them"
so many treasurable advices From Peter chan!
Thank you soooooo much for being relaxed and making everyone feel they can do it too.😘😁
Don't have a bonsai, the algorithm brought me here. Stayed for the relaxing voice and great general information.
We were all once like you. Next thing you know you will be surrounded by bonsai!
True story ❤️🪴
This video is among my all time favourites. I really enjoyed watching you transform your ‘no hopers’ into lovely little bonsai. I will be going into my garden with fresh eyes now! I will be ordering some of your plastic training pots for my saplings. Loved the beautiful robin watching you work!
Thank you Peter.
I really appreciate you making videos that make the art of bonsai accessible to people who can't afford to spend hundreds of dollars on a single tree or those who don't have their own property to have big bonsai trees outdoors. You're incredibly talented and knowledgable. Thank you for all that you do!
The bird ate a berry off the tree!! So sweet. I love birds and trees.
Love what you are doing to make these lil nothings into bonsais, I’m impressed with you Peter Chan😁
Thank you, for your encouragement, and your freedom, to just go with the flow, attitude. Love your videos
Love that little robin bonus. Always amazing to see Peter in action! Loved it!
Hello Peter, you are not a bonsai master, you are the bonsai master. He knows how to get the best out of trees and from what I see through his videos I imagine that he also knows how to get the best out of people. How many talents the world would have gained if we devoted ourselves more to supporting people and not criticizing them!
I could not have said it better Josh
Thank you my friend.
I find that by doing bonsai - it has helped me to appreciate people more - no matter who or what they are. People are like trees. Everyone different but all have potential.
@@peterchan3100 How right you are, my friend, a word of encouragement is so powerful that it changes the life of the person who receives it. Fortunately, we are not all twisted junipers with perfect branches full of dead wood. Sadly, many people are going in the opposite direction.
Thanks Peter for giving us one more master lesson on how simple things have their beauty.
Even the "simple" robin joined.
I did love this video.
One last word for the good job done by the man with the camera.
Just learned the robin just displays normal behavior. It does this with the wild bore in nature when they turn the soil looking for food just like Peter rough up the soil. He is the wild bore of bonsai to the robin.
I found your videos by good fortune, you my friend are an artist, a druid, and your work is a pleasure to behold. Thank you
I went from orchids to succulent and now I'm looking at bonsai 😆 I'm going to need more windows if I keep this indoor plants thing up.(I know only some bonsai can grow indoors but I don't have space for outside plants)
Thank you so much for showing us how to work with difficult, intermediate-sized material. Most of us amateurs love to work with larger than tiny material but cannot afford the really large trees. So we usually have to work with older, poorly shaped stock. Love the 2-way split!
You make beautiful things from such sad plants. You are a great artist!
Thank you so much! I’m a total newbie and I’ve watched lots of videos and to be honest most knocked my confidence but yours has made me really want to give it a go!! X
Beautiful work the Robin adds more interest
It is so relaxing to see a master perform his craft.
"You wouldn't want it" no that far left one with the tangled roots looks amazing to me!
You make all the ugly trees beautiful!!! Trash trees turned into treasures!!! Thanks so much!
about your "mission in life"... i'm very grateful for your videos. i've been watching them for days, they're really calming after a stressful day. even got myself a little tree from the forest around the corner to work with. much love from germany!
Having just retired and trying to fill my time you are giving me the inspiration to take up Bonsai on the cheap, just following your channel I can look at plants at garden center's in such a different way, I am hoping to visit your nursery very soon.
That European Robin is so cute
the best when it comes to explain bonsai !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!👍👍👍👍
Your voice is very relaxing. Your optimism is contagious.
Different trees, Different size, Different age, Different styles. very informative for a beginner. Lovely Robin, least but last, over head electric cable🙏
That wee bird is so precious.
This was fantastic!!! And the little visitor was very welcome! Thank you for a most enjoyable program!!
While I love watching and learning from you, the robin was the star. :)
That was such an enjoyable video. I learned so much. Thank you. 🌱🌱🌱🌲🌲🌿🌿🌿💚💚💚💚💚
49:53 cheeky Robin in the nursery getting some fruit, so awesome.
Absolutely fantastic, I started being interested in Bonsai in the 80s and didn’t continue with it, I’m 70 now and you have brought a tear to my eye, the regrets but also the joy that people will have whilst being connected to nature and also I will do some again and pass them on to my children, as I know one is interested in, as he borrowed my Dan Barton book.
Thank you! DG New Forest U.K.
Great work! Lovely little trees! I did a similar video with wild olive cuttings; like you said, it's possible to make a bonsai out of anything that grows. 🌱🌿🌳
Wow! I am always inspired by your work. I had no idea you could split the trunk two ways.😳 Thank you for sharing your knowledge. My little trees and I appreciate it.😊 Also, love the cheeky Robin!😁
I love love LOVE this video! Firstly sir, you are an amazing teacher! I recently began my second...and hopefully more successful venture into the art of bonsai, and your videos have taught me more in a few weeks than I’ve ever learned from reading or any other means of educating myself. Most of my past dead trees resulted from my over zealous desire to repot anything I could get my hands on! You have taught me to be patient and repot/wire at the appropriate time. Thank you for your knowledge and for the way that you make your point understandable to us beginners. And I must comment on the bird. The mere fact that that sweet tiny bird was comfortable and fearless around you, is a testament to your calm demeanor and zen-like ability to become one with nature. I could watch this all day long.
Cool to see trash turned to art but did the Robin steal the show 😁
No stopping Mr Peter Chan...Not even a pandemic. Wonderful.
You are a man of many talents.
When he was talking about splitting the trunk I freaked out thought he was going to cut it in half but it was pretty delicate tbh
Just love how you are able to transform a nothing plant to a beautiful creation. I am now retired. Bonsai surely will be part of my garden hobby. Thank you for the video! Be well!
Thank you for showing trees without wiring ... they are beautiful
I love the way you make a bonsai, Peter ❤️❤️❤️
stay healthy, thank you for sharing this knowledge👍
Thank you for such encouraging words. I bought a few raw material from a garden center and I am super excited to start my bonsai adventures.
Such a wonderful video - full of information and inspiration. Your affection for the plants shows. And your voice is very soothing. Thank you for your teachings!
This guys garden is absolutely ineffable. I watch ten mins of one of his videos and subscribed so fast, I learned so much. Thank you!!!
What an enjoyable experience. Thank-you.
Absolutely wonderful! I enjoyed this immensely. With a little love and TLC anything can be beautiful. ❤️
Learned from your videos...
I love also the birds coming near you while your working...
You Sir are a true Master! Thank you, many lessons learned.
I am from Australia and I am enjoying all your videos with so much instructions for a beginner like me! Fantastic!
What a beautiful ending!
That robin is adorable! Thank you for the informative lessons, Peter.
The bird is really cool
And very smart.
One cut and wo got an interesting tree, yes, this is why you are a real master 👍
Thanks for the fun video. I'm going to wire a bonsai this week.
During these month of the pandemic; thanks for a few quiet chuckles, re: stories on diving for nursery throwaways. Yes Peter you have more than served us well. And I am more than encouraged by the poker straight black pine "almost obscene" an ugly duckling to a beautiful swan! Keep teaching and reminding us secret Bonsai tips along with life lessons. It doesn't hurt. The entire 50 minutes without your power lenses. Keep the magic coming. Thank you.
And is no solution to a face mask with glasses. I tried it all. Love from Canada's chilly December West Coast.
Beautifull lection of life! Everyone has potencial! Thanks
Scruffy little trees - none of them can hope to mast a sailing ship but they demonstrate, to men, a life of elegance.
Could you please show some more forest groups? Your videos are one of the best Bonsai 'tutorials' on RUclips.
I always like to see how the forest groups are getting along.
Fascinating. This was one of my favorite lessons. Thank you!
This man is so Wholesome. I love this man
YOU are a visionary plant artist!!
You’re so inspiring Sir! The robin loves you!
I enjoy your videos so much. We have large oak trees in the neighborhood and I've sprouted about 15 acorns so far. In a couple years, who knows? I may have more little trees than I know what to do with.
: ) Mitty
I am amazed at your designs with bonsai. I love your long videos and don’t get bored watching. I learn so much by watching your videos. Continue sharing your knowledge with us beginners who love the art of bonsai.
Thank you ! I was enlightened by your video
I LOVE watching you work with your plants!! THANK YOU very much for sharing your knowledge. Happy New Year!! WA state, USA
Sweet Robin. Nice work Sir
Thank you for yet ANOTHER great video, Peter.
You and your work is truly appreciated.

Wow I can’t believe how talented you are those gorgeous trees 🥰🥰
what a pretty little bird🥰😍
Merci pour tout ce que vous partager, je dévore pendant des heures vos videos et vos paroles. Je n osais pas commencer cet art fascinant, il me semblait impossible à aborder pour un amateur sans base technique ; grace à vous j ai compris qu'il n y a pas de cas sans espoir .Je me lance modestement et déjà reprendre le temps d observer chaque arbre que je croise est un plaisir . J apprécie particulièrement votre approche , ne changez rien !
Thank you for making these beautiful videos! I love everything about them 💚
Thank you Mr.Chan for those all beautiful bonsai you make.. its so amazing and stunning.. i always enjoying watching your videos its relaxing for me and i love it👍❤🇵🇭
Love what you doing with these. Lil trees, They Weill be nice bonsais in the future,
In nature it is quite common to see trees that have had vines rapped around them and caused the trunks to have that effect of spiraling so I really like the way leaving the wire in looks! People around me often seek these trees out and they cut them and take the bark off and carve them to make walking sticks. 😊
I love watching your videos,you certainly have inspired me to get into Bonsai. Thank you
Yes so cute trees very much smollett but they like and life because lovely flowers have been to eyesight for life because baddest of older just before beautiful tree🥰🥰
The robin was pretty cool.
15:04 I really like that shape, we must get to se the progression of that tree over time! 😎👌
i also love this little bird.. it´s so cute..
Great job on all the trees. Enjoyed watching you work on them and your feedback and really enjoyed the after when you went back to all of them and there finished look.
Great video! Thank you again.
Like seeing your beautiful trees and learning how to make Bonsai from the small ones. Was also very impressed to learn that you ballroom dance and jive swing. I also love to dance and do line and country dancing as well. Would love to rumba with you sometime. 🙋♀️💃🏼
That gnarled trunk from the wire reminds me of a walking stick my dad made from a maple tree. The tree had been strangled by a vine and the trunk was heavily twisted and gnarled like that. It’s his “wizards staff” we call it. All he had to do was peel the bark off and sand the ends round and rub it with beeswax. So that appearance is something that exists in nature
So fascinating! Sometimes it's hard for me to imagine how the smaller trees will look like aged. Do they simply thicken and scale while keeping the shape or do you create the lower half and it'll add height on top? A kind of age-comparison video would be super interesting how tress might look like after 5, 10 or 50 Years 🌱 ❤️
Keep up the great work peter 👏🏼 bless you
Turned out to be bonsai pot worthy indeed😘.. beautiful. Thx for sharing Peter.. cheers.
This is a lot of fun, this video/subject. Thanks!
