Peter you are the best when it comes to bonsai and Japanese maple number one expert love your videos I watch them every day and always picking up tips😊thank you for your teachings Planing a trip over to your place to purchase my first deshojo and some bits
That Robin loves bonsai, the sparrows in my area love to watch me work with my trees. I have some clumps planned for this upcoming spring. Some maples I grew from seed all from the same parent tree and some American sweetgum that grew up in my yard, pretty excited.
I have lots of saplings grown from Heron’s small leaf maple seeds. I will be definitely be making some S shapes and clump groups. Thank you for this wonderful demonstration.
I have 5 cuttings and 6 air-layers of San Jose juniper (all tiny still)... I want to learn how to train it upright into s-shaped large bonsai or niwaki (I’m aware SJ are prostrate, low, wide growers).
If you dont cut much root off and can provide a damp humid atmosphere like in an unheated greenhouse - you can do it from Jan to June and then again from Sept to Nov. I was doing these seedlings in late Nov.
Most of the trees that started to live, will live at great homes. The nursery it self has only a fraction if the trees compared to the trees they had produced in its lifetime. Maybe someone will take over, a family member or somebody interested in it.
I worked on a house once that had a big oak and ash that were fused together. Purdue University tended and trimmed it in exchange for being allowed to study it. Interestingly, the owner pulled his own tooth out in the garage with pliers as his friend told me about the tree nearby.
Does this style work for every type of trees ? I live on the Mediterranean coast and I was wondering if I can use this with Olive trees, (edible) Fig Trees or Pine Seedlings. Also what would have if I try to clump together a longer portion not only on soil level ? Will they still fuse together ? Should I scrape off the bark on the adjacent sides ?
Hey Peter! Have been watching you for a long time and have noticed that your lessons on bonsai trees tend to be vague when it comes to types of fertilizer to use and what kind to use on different species. If you have any recommendations or even a further lesson on fertilizers best suited for different types, That would be awesome as i've had trouble determining if i need specific fertilizers for each species of tree, or if there is a fertilizer that is more universal. Any help would be appreciated! :)
A lot of it is common sense - but in future I will try to be more specific. Not much difference between the species. But remember that Evergreens can be fed earlier say in March. Deciduous - after leaves have emerged, say in May. But in Spring use ANY High Nitrogen feed and from mid to late summer a high P & K feed. I dont promote brands - just check the N P K. Easy. Dont get hung up on this.
@@peterchan3100 I appreciate the Help! I only worry because I feel i might kill my plants by providing an incorrect NPK fertilizer; but you have given me peace of mind! Any tips on handling Maples in more temperate climates? Thank you for all you do to educate us!
Dear Sir, I have Seiryu about 170cm tall ( I guess 2-3 years old) it has few, thin side branches, unfortunately very close to each other. Can I use a wire to make them a bit more away from each other? (not for a bonsai, just garden tree in the future).
I am going to spend this spring and summer growing, buying, and hunting material. I AM going camping this year and I think I am gonna convince wifey that this year we need real woods, not some tame camp site. I will bring my bucket and spade.
I have learned that the slower the tree grows, the longer it lives. Trees that grow fast usually have shorter life spans. Maybe an old tale, but, what I have learned.
I think that the difference in growth is not only due to genes, but also to many other environmental factors. There is sickness, parasites, micro climate, watering, sun, getting lucky with the fertilizer, wind and probably some others, and they can have a domino-kind of effect, so for plants that had a good start, it's easier to accelerate growth.

Meh. I never saw an idle sparrow or robin. They indeed spend their days looking for food. On the other hand I know a lot of lazy humans who don’t seem to have a care in the world.
This is my therapy. When i start to watch i watch for at least 2h and i don't even notice it. My favourite youtube channel
i love how you caught the bird for a second....just holesome AF, authentic relaxed, in balance with nature
11:30 Peter’s bird cameo :o
The robin simply wanted to see from closer, so it can make some nice bonsai as well😀
Beautyfull Maples....thank You showing these Bonsai technics...👍...please stay healthy😊

Thank you very much for all your help mister shang
So you know if junipers can be fused to make a clamp?
Super sir
19:05 cute robin
Great post! Peter would every make a Jin out of a dead trunk in a clump style display?
Thank you 🍁
Very Nice...

Great!
Good day Peter,
Thank you for your awesome videos 😁
Do you do clump style also for Japanese black pine? I'd love to try it out.
I saw this poem in 2019 at Schlachtensee in Berlin
Do you repot only these japanese maples in February or can you repot field maple outside too in February?
If you dont cut much root off and can provide a damp humid atmosphere like in an unheated greenhouse - you can do it from Jan to June and then again from Sept to Nov. I was doing these seedlings in late Nov.
@@peterchan3100 that is cool. I just have recently build new shed with lots of light so I just need the maples now:-))
Hey, What is the best maple species to create a clump style bonsai?
Also, what species of maple grows the fastest?
What will happen to the nursery in say 20-30 years?
Most of the trees that started to live, will live at great homes. The nursery it self has only a fraction if the trees compared to the trees they had produced in its lifetime. Maybe someone will take over, a family member or somebody interested in it.
What's the best time of year to attempt this?
I worked on a house once that had a big oak and ash that were fused together. Purdue University tended and trimmed it in exchange for being allowed to study it. Interestingly, the owner pulled his own tooth out in the garage with pliers as his friend told me about the tree nearby.
You said not to do it in summer. Is now, early june, already too late to put maple seedlings together?

@@peterchan3100 Good question and good summarizing answer!
Does anyone else hear panpipes, an Peter Chans voice in the back of your mind while working on trees?
@@Hiawatha999 🤭 do you even tell the roots how beautiful they are.?
@@Hiawatha999 why would you say such a thing to your only subscriber? 😂
If I were a robin I could fly to Herons nursery.

Could you maybe post the month that this is happening? In all your videos. Master said that Autumn is coming and now it is middle of December
It was the end of November. He was able to do it because he has an unheated greenhouse.
I think it might be a tuhee, there just like Robin's, pretty much :)
