Great idea to make a progression series to show the foliage change...Enjoyed watching its Fall progression...Thanks for the information update on this variety...Agreed that the moss is a more intuitive way to go...Thanks for sharing...
Thanks for watching. Decent fall color this year - filming it made me realize how fast it changed - I'm not sure if that's typical, as I haven't ever kept such a close watch on it.
Nice video. Good-looking colors on the leaves. Thanks for talking about the Lime Zinger, I can see the rosettes you mentioned on my plant. Can you dig down and expose the trunk? Or should I cut it back when the larger leaves die off and wait for a trunk to develop? Thanks for the info.
@@Lees_Trees Thanks, and you're welcome. I'm glad you're working on a hardy sedum bonsai. In my USDA Zone 6 climate, I don't seem to have cold-caused dieback on my trunk, so I'd think yes, you can likely expose the trunk. My process has been to simply cut off the dead stems/leaves each fall/winter - those new rosettes have always been there (I have a few new rosettes at the moment waiting behind this years stems). I think I've usually done this cutback once this years' leaves have browned (unlike what I did on the video, where I removed this years' stems while they were still green and healthy).
@@BonsaiNorthwest So, in this video you stated that the "North American Native Trees as Bonsai" was one of your most viewed videos...I was wondering if a video of Washington State Indigenous Trees or Trees of the Pacific Northwest wouldn't be a good topic...I know I would enjoy it...Just food for thought...Thoroughly enjoy your videos and your easy-going manner in presenting interesting information...
@@n8tyler Yes, I think that fact that my NA natives video has been my most popular video is an indication that a lot of folks are interested in the topic. Thanks for the idea. Some people did mention how I talked mainly about species native to northern NA, which makes since because that's where I'm located, but I definitely didn't hit a lot of NA native species - there's so many. So a video like you suggest narrowed down to a smaller region makes sense.
Ha 😆, thanks for the tip. You're right - many more videos of each of my trees and I'll soon have no more feet left on any of my pots! Like my trees, none of my pots are too expensive so I've never been too concerned. I should just spend the $10 - it'd make my before/after spins so much smoother!
@@BonsaiNorthwest I totally agree. One of those cheap plastic turntables is a game changer, for all-around viewing, but especially for wiring and pruning, and chop sticking!
@@alexbrendan7181 Right, I didn't even think about how it'd help me work on trees, I was just thinking about my before/after shots. Alright, you've convinced me - time to spend that $10.
Beautiful color change, good sir. The sedum idea is pretty slick, I’m diggin it anyways.
Thanks. It's a good one for fall color.

Hey mate, I’d recommend a turn table to reduce the grinding down of your pots! 😉😄

I meant that other reply to be here as a separate comment, sorry. I'm using my phone 4G since I don't have wifi back yet.
No worries! I'll reply to your other comment.
