    This reminds me of a stone sculptor that looks at a huge stone and sees something extraordinary amidst the ordinary; and then through talent that most of us only dream of, is able to find that element of beauty and bring it to light for the rest of us. Truly a beautiful work of art! Chapeau!

    Does anyone else get nervous watching such hard pruning?
    But the end result looks ancient and magically miniature. Otherworldly.

    • @chasingthefish9042
      @chasingthefish9042 9 месяцев назад +9

      Ports are almost indestructible. Don't like the root base? Cut it off.
      Don't like the branching? Cut it off.
      Hard prune zero problems.
      Only thing they don't like is over watering.

    • @GaiaCarney
      @GaiaCarney 8 месяцев назад +4

    • @seannichols7957
      @seannichols7957 29 дней назад +2

      That can be easily done but you will very quickly run out of space for all the new plants. O speak from experience. I also find it difficult to discard cuttings 😂

    • @gabimontoya-eyerman596
      @gabimontoya-eyerman596 19 дней назад

      I repot multiple cuttings into little pots then give them away one the little plant is established. I give away dozens of plants each year as gifts

  • @erikm8372
    @erikm8372 9 месяцев назад +197

    FYI, this plant is _Portulacaria afra_ aka ‘elephant food’, because it’s edible by animals and people! So, technically it’s not the true “jade plant”, which is _Crassula ovata_ with larger leaves and more forms/cultivars available. And jade is definitely not edible. Sometimes just touching jade can cause skin problems, or any Crassulaceae plant, for that matter, including _Crassula_ or _Kalanchoe_ which seem to be the most sensitive to people’s skin… Both make for good bonsai though.

    Back in 2003 I found a pot bound English beech tree in my late mother's greenhouse. She also had a collection of bonsai dishes. (Like me she often had several 'hobbies' on the go and never concentrated on one.)
    I still have it with me in my home. It looks lovely especially when its delicate leaves are out. I have a pomegranite as well and a species of cyprus or similar both grown from seed.

  • @bravobby8773
    @bravobby8773 5 месяцев назад +21

    I’m amazed the plant survived with such little foliage! I know bonsai is a little bit different but for most houseplants the rule seems to be to not cut more than 1/3 of roots or foliage, I’d about have a heart attack cutting that much! 😅 came out absolutely gorgeous though! High risk and high reward indeed!

      @mattbarnett6902 2 месяца назад +1

      These are nearly indestructible. Don't overwater them, and give them as much light as you can. Aside from that, you could cut it off level with the ground and it would put out new leaves in a week.

    Thank you! I especially appreciate the photo synopsis at the end, reviewing each phase. I have a 'mangled mess' of small leaf jade, started from 2" cuttings 3 years ago. It has been consistently pinched to encourage a cascade shape (it is in a 14" tall narrow neck clay pot). Getting up my nerve to try to get it OUT of the pot ... but was unsure how to separate it. This video clearly shows the benefit of NOT separating the many trunks .... THANK YOU!
