Transforming a Prostrata Juniper Bonsai from the Auction
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 авг 2024
- I recently went to the Mammoth Bonsai Auction in Oakland and was able to pick up two new trees to work on! As always, I don't buy the very popular trees, but I buy the ones that I see potential in and bring them home to work on them. We'll work on the Prostrata Juniper today and the California Juniper next week!

The video intros are so creative. How it shows a few seconds then cuts to the logo animation 🎉. Great video again
Thank you for making that connection. The logo is designed my my partner who is a graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design.
...to depict bondai should be plesureabler,, quick and easy....NOT tedious!
Only found your channel a few weeks ago. Very much enjoying your videos. Please keep them up.
Will do!

I see what you’re talking about overgrown and messy and I love the design changes ! Thank you for sharing!
Pleae stay tuned...will do update in three and six months.
I love the way you repositioned this tree. Please continue to update us on its progress
Will do...thanks!
Very informative as always Milton. I really enjoy watching you take a tree that I think is nice and you always turn it into something much better. You have a great eye. When I’m analyzing a tree, I try to think of what you may see in it. I’ve gained so much knowledge from you. Thanks as always for the video and for all that you do!
I must have studied thoughts of bonsai photos in the last 50 years...Everything takes time, Right?
@@MiltonChang-ee6rq Yes sir!!
You don’t mess about do you Milton going away from the rule book which advises not to cut across the leaves or needles, I like your style, you are upsetting the old timers as you say you may give them a heart attack if they watch this video. You’re a lucky man being able to buy so good old trees.
I agree about pot size. I have been accused of overpotting, but I would prefer a healthy tree to one suffering because I have not met the challenge of care. Unfortunately, there are other ways in which people make bonsai challenging==repotting only during a very narrow window of time, pinching rather than scissoring juniper foliage, etc. Probably the reason many newcomers do not stick with bonsai.
How can we make progress if we follow tradition without questioning?
Nice job Milton keep up the good work mate thanks
Thanks Mate!
Nice work on this tree. New pot for the root growth and the pruning will take off nicely in the style you want it to. Great buy from the auction. Excellent video.
Terimakaksih shering informasi cara merubah posisi bonsai🙏

Bonsai juniper yang menginspirasi, dan video yang bagus sahabat
senang Anda menyukai pekerjaan saya, Terima kasih!
Beautiful tree design. I am always amazed how you find the right shape that is beautiful and similar to what nature creates.
Doing wha I can. Gad you and I are on the same page!
C'est toujours un grand plaisir de visionner votre travail. Merci pour la vidéo!
Merci Beaucoup
I love how you intuitively know to cut back to just structure and can see a tree go from a puffball with a great trunk into a tree that has story, age, wind and seasons of growth and death and a march of time.
So many trees I see online and in books seem so full and grown in, yet your trees show a story of struggle. What attracts you to those types of feelings to show in your tree?
Empathy!!
thank you for your compliments!
It is the amalgamation of thousands of bonsai photo, calligraphy, paintings… I grew up in Asian culture. Now is the time to create an American style, which could be simple elegance like the heritage tree every city, and in our national forest…or hanging tree as we imagine in the wild wild west…
Let us go for it.
Wow, the after looks amazing. Well done, doc.
Stay tuned for update...I will further think out significantly to show off the structure...less is more!
Yes the small pot is out of preparation for the tree.
Being appropriate to feel comfortable.
Beautiful specimen. I don't like the side of the tree you are showing us as much as the other side for the front. It's more dramatic to see the trunk and branches framed by the greenery.
👍👌🙂
Hi Milton what a beautiful tree with the way you clip the foliage will they brown up and if so how do you deal with that
Only the tips where you cut will brown. New growth soon covers the brown tips.
I repotted my japanese maples today, getting ready for spring. I don’t think the air rooted one survived winter. I am hesitating to look.
Heck...you'll find out sooner or later.
Why do you peel the bark off the branches that you cut off?
AADAKAMA😂😂😂
SLIP OF TONGUE
Wait a minuute! It is aaaahkadama. 😇
