    I rescue maple seedlings from the gravel shoreline of the Mississippi river near my home. They sprout every year only to be washed away during storms, so I grabbed several dozen. I have 41 potted up and healthy right now.

    Wow okay so here's a crazy story,
    I started making bonsai a while ago and I found Peter to be the best creator on RUclips, he's great!
    Anyways, a few weeks back I was wondering about wisteria trees and making bonsai with them, boom that day Peter makes a video about it.
    I was in a garden store a few days ago and was talking to the worker about maples and looking at the maples outback for seedlings etc, now here we are!
    But wait, its gets weirder ...
    A couple weeks ago my dad found a bonsai book at a opshop and got it for me knowing I already had a few and sure enough the author of that book, you guessed it, it was Peter!
    Haha I guess the storys not that crazy but if you've read this far i hope you enjoyed :)
    Keep up the beautiful work Peter!
    Stay safe out there guys!

      Many years ago, I dreamed that I and my mother walked around a big park picking up weeds. We estimated that the job would be done quite quickly but as we walked around we noticed more and more weeds. We worked all day and when the sun had gone down and me and mom had argued over the weeds we finally sat down on a bench to give up. We paused our argument. We looked down at the ground, exhausted. I saw my feet and noticed l was barefoot. Then I saw that roots were stuck in my foot. I grabbed them but they were stuck to my feet. I said “mom, look!” We both laughed relieved as we let the fact sink in, weeds grew out of my feet and I had inadvertently been spreading weeds all over the park.

    I saw the other video Peter made on collecting and sowing Acer seeds. I was out on my bike near Bournemouth last autumn and cycled under a stunning Acer. Sure enough it was covered in little "helicopters" as we used to call them as a child. They were brown and fully ripe and I put a handful in my pocket. I plopped them onto some compost and put them in a sheltered place away from squirrels for the winter and early this spring I had 8 little seedlings with the most beautiful leaves. I was over the moon. They are happily growing away in little pots now. Future bonsai for free! Thank you Peter.

I'm not sure what my options are at this point in terms of whether or not I can begin properly grooming the trees into smaller bonsai, or if it might be necessary/better to wait a few more years for the trunks to fill in before I attempt to turn them into bonsai.

    Hello. Nice video. I am new to bonsai and learn many things from you. I am inspired & recently collected tamarind seedlings here. I also planted it in small bags. Should I use larger bags until I put it to training pots? Tropical climate here. 😊

    I have hundreds of red maple trees that have sprouted in the neighborhood backyard, so I decided to rescue 1 of them before they all get mowed over.

    Dear Mr Chan I enjoy your videos very much here’s my question I don’t know what the next step is for Japanese maples seedlings given me
    They are 7 inches long and are planted in small cups should I put them in gallon pots for a couple of years I would like them to thicken up
    I seem to miss that step and would appreciate your advice thank you

    It's funny how many tree seedlings can be found in a garden. I pot them up and I have no clue that they are until they have grown bigger. I don't have so much luck planting seeds and getting them to germinate. However I can put grass seed on the lawn to no effect and find it growing beautifully in my bonsai pots. I think it must be birds to blame. Anyway thanks for another interesting video.

    Thank you for your videos, sensei. The moss in your lovely maple grove, would have any moss propagating techniques to cover a larger clayish area where there’s moss but seemingly very slow to spread. Maybe moss, like bonsai, is a patience game not can’t be rushed because on its multi stage lifecycle and spores are sensitive. I’m not sure if the moss/yogurt slurry is a dead end but it doesn’t seem to be proven and would make a big stink. Any tips, suggestions or video links to hasten the process would be greatly appreciated. Sub’d from Berkeley!

    Just ordered a Chinese elm online from your store, don't suppose there is any chance of a couple of these seedlings haha only joking. I will come and visit your nursery once we are able to. Would love to see the nursery in person. You sir are a master of bonsai. Thank you so much for your videos, I am slowly going through them all.

    Do you keep them outdoors once potted up? Will they need to come inside for the winter?

    Hi, my dad has a Japanese maple in his backyard and every year there's some of these but they always die. I just grabbed some and potted them. Should I take them in doors or leave them outdoors?

    anyone got advice on over-wintering Japanese Maple seedlings? I grew some from seed (germinated in March, been outside in pots since then). Is it ok to leave them in the pots outside all winter? I am in Northern Ireland, can expect sub-zero temperatures now and again over the winter. Can get pretty windy and rains a lot. The back of the house is fairly sheltered from wind but not rain. I am also wondering if i could just put them in the shed to protect them from the elements. I don't think they will need sunlight once they lose their leaves and go dormant?

    If some of the roots get broken when pulling the saplings out of the ground, will that kill the sapling? Also if the leaves wilt and die will the sapling still grow? Thanks!

    I found several seedlings sprouted during fall here. I put them in a 50/50 ratio of dirt/ bonsai mix. The leaves have sort of dropped and shrunk. I left 3 leaves or so on every plant. I don't want to water too much but I fear they're suffering and I want them to grow strong. Is it best to just be patient or should I take some action.?? Any help would be appreciated.
