Love the longer videos! I've been missing seeing you about every other day. lol I find myself wanting to work on my few starts of trees everyday! ...but I just water & watch them and work on my patience. I can't wait for the day I have enough trees to work on something every day or so! Also, I'm finding there is MUCH more to Bonsai than meets the eye. I'm so thankful you share the finer bits of information. For sure...I learn something new every time I watch a video. Thank you, Nigel, for always sharing a little something else.
Bonnie Hyden , right, im still working on the right soil mix, so till then i have some nursery material, and so some seedlings waiting on the right conditions
And Nigel is great for sharing this. Been watching these videos for just over a year, but have seen it grow. Sometimes its unchecked questions that can be read about, but Nigel will answer us. And continues to. Thank you Nigel, sincerely, Dylan Tyler
satanlovesmemoreable I’ve been using the soul mix Nigel suggests and it seems to be very good for my few trees. So far all I have is a shrub I dug up from the yard (sorry, I’ve not taken the time to identify) and some jade plants. Oh! And a Yaupon I dug up from the yard before hubby cut it down. I’m getting my trees mainly from the woods around us.
Bonnie Hyden , that mix seems prime, but a little pricey for me atm. I have found a albino oak seedling i collected, being it was on a busy fishing trail. Im happy with looking for my yamadori and coming back when im ready, doing some trimming and training
Hi Nigel . I'm so glad you worked on the small trees in this video. I have a few mames most of them 1" . My favourite category followed by shohin. Can't wait for spring so that I can to a bit of root pruning. Your trees as usual are wonderful
That monk looked so real that I first thought it was a real person... Wall-e did look a bit distressed that you cut all the leaves from his tree. ;) Oh, I want to plant trees now! :-)
The monk his name is Great Master Luang Pu Sodh Candasaro best known by his miracles, prophecies and super-natural healing powers in Thailand ruclips.net/video/gPdnmtF21G8/видео.html en.dhammakaya.net/
I love the tiny trees! I live in an apartment so all my trees are pretty small. I got a bougainvillea recently and am so excited for it to look as nice as yours!
Sir you are amazing. I am from India and a big fan of your. The love for the plants you have cannot be described. You are an inspiration for many. Keep the good work going. ✌️🙌
Thanks nigel. learning alot from you. I had understood mame. But didn't knew what shohin means. I thought it's just another word for bonsai itself. Didn't knew it's all about different size of bonsai.
New subscriber here! Love your videos, literally can't stop watching them. Very inspired to go get my bonsai pots! Got a chuckle at the bit where you couldn't pull the roots out. Thank you!
Hi Nigel! I noticed you had a silver maple in frame around the 0:44 second mark. Would you consider doing a video on those? I have several silver maple bonsais myself, and most people don't advise using them. I have found them to make great bonsais. Thanks Nigel!
Nigel, at least one of your small trees seems to have a dead zone on the trunk. Have you considered detailing it like is done on the much larger trees? There's an on-line company called Micro-Mark that deals mainly in scale model train kits that has a line of tools specifically for small work. They're mainly surgical tools and one set is labeled as micro chisels that would be great for detailing dead zones on the small bonsai trees.....IF a person wanted to try that. The address is www.micromark.com/. They call themselves The Small Tools Specialists.
I was thinking about your broken pot issue some more. Thin ceramic ware will crack in winter simply because water expands when it freezes. So I was thinking that all your thin walled ceramic pots should be vacated in winter, taking out the tree and putting the base where the roots are in a plastic bag surrounded by yard leaves and let them sit out the winter in a plastic bag surrounded by leaves. Or you may want to experiment and take a thin walled ceramic pot and put the whole pot in a plastic bag and put leaves over it. and tie it up good. For extra assurances, you may want to add a layer of insulation around the pot for winter. Just wrap the insulation around it. The problem is that it rains and then freezes, so it is important rain water doesn't get in the pot during winter. The best bet would be to take the plant out of the pot, protect the root ball with leaves and a plastic bag. A lot of work, I know. Just a suggestion.
Very lovely cascade cedar. Your bougainvilleas are looking very good. Hope that they will be in bloom for your fall show. They are such forgiving plants. I enjoy growing them in my garden and as bonsai. How is your son's bougainvillea doing? I've heard it said that it is much more difficult to create a small bonsai than a large one. Do you prefer small or large bonsai? As I get older my collection has changed some to smaller plants. It gets harder each year to lift the plants/pots. But, at least I can continue in the hobby. Thanks for sharing your work on these small plants and the explanation of the different "smaller" sized bonsai names.
Blessings to all from all! We will each have our own time when we awaken, understand, and connect with the inevitable. All of our paths are different yet similar, and that’s amazing. We should find comfort in our diversities and similarities, not allow them to pull us apart. Enjoy every facet or complication of life, for it has its place for some reason. Acknowledge everything and be aware of all things, for a biased mind is unjust. Justice is equality and Justice is what this model of reality lacks. Most of all, just appreciate it, be thankful for your ability to think and perceive thought, it’s quite amazing for it has enabled us to create realities with dimensions we desire. Awaken to what you are and fail to acknowledge, we are this and more. Hence our disagreements with what is truth. Be thankful for all that you’ve got, because it will eventually be gone. Anyone that see this, you are so much more than what you think. I love you for acknowledging that! ✝️☮️🕉☯️✡️☪️☸️🎰♾ Blessings from all from to all!
Hi Nigel, I thoroughly enjoy your videos, thanks for posting them. Sorry to bother you indirectly, but I couldn't find a way to message you directly through your home page. I'm trying to learn how to carve a "root stand" -- you know, those lovely gnarled stands that look as though they're entwined roots? Well, I've found images of blanks with holes drilled, planks "before and after" -- but nothing on how to get from blank to finished. Do you have any step-by-step videos, or can you recommend any? THANKS for all your delightful videos!
Bonsai Empire has a short article.... www.bonsaiempire.com/blog/bonsai-rootstand Adam has an article... adamaskwhy.com/2016/03/14/carving-a-root-stand/ I don't see much else online, it looks like a specialty art form!
sorry for any spam on recent videos, I’m just worried about my juniper because the leaves are very hard and some of the bark and leaves look dried up. I’m worried it’s dying on me and idk what to do. I water the leaves and the surface soil. I get the roots wet by a video I saw of leaving it in a water bowl for the roots to suck up the water for a little bit of time (doing this once a week). thank you for the recommendation link and hopefully it lives
I got my bonsai end of April so I haven’t fertilized it because honestly I don’t really know how. Also, I don’t have spider mites because my tree is indoors most time. I will start putting it outside now
Jenn - The Juniper is an outdoor tree. Keeping it indoors will kill it. Also, I hope I'm wrong, but with conifers once the needles start to dry out it's usually already too late. Their roots die first and then the foliage. All the best.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Can u also do a video on how u save rain water & use it for ur plants. I mean the whole rain water benefits, uses & how to video
You can easily, the only problem is the roots grow through the drainage screens and as they get thicker, it is impossible to remove the tree without wrecking the mesh holes. It is better to have the screens separate!
So I have a Japanese dwarf maple tree. I bought it in its third season. The canopy of this tree seems perfect for how I picture it too be. It's mid July now. My question is. I want to repot my tree. Should I wait till next spring for repotting? It has regular potting soil in a 12" pot.
You can re pot mid summer if you don't do a lot of root pruning and you keep the tree in a semi shaded area until it recovers. Spring is definitely the best time to re pot, if the tree is healthy, you can do a lot of root work.
I’m watching a lot of bonsai videos and I’m itching to get to work on mine, but it’s the wrong time of year here in Australia; coming up for mid winter. Will just have to play with my model trains instead 😁
I have my Grandfathers live steam locomotive sitting behind me right now, it's a Britannia class. He built it in Perth in the late 1960's. I'm hoping to find the time some day to get it running. I'm the third generation to own it! I'll have to feature it in a video!
That would be nice to see Nigel!! Do you know what scale it is?? I guessing for it being live steam and when it was built it’s ‘0’ scale. Thanks for sharing that info, cheers. 👍😉
Awesome video! You're the Bob Ross of bonsai trees! Just FYI (not trying to be that guy...) it's should be mame (ma-may) and shohin (sho-heen). I's are ee sound and e's are eh sound in Japanese. Then you're killing it 100%
Nigel, love your channel. It has inspired me to start a bonsai hobby. I have some seeds I’d love to send you. Collected at Walt Disney World. Trumpet tree , or Tabebuia rosea. Let me know how to send, and they are yours. Thanks!
Just stumbled over this video of yours. Nice! However, sorry to correct you, Nigel, but Mame (Japanese for bean) are the smallest and are usually no taller than 5 cm although everything up to 10 cm are defined as Mame Bonsai. Shohin are the next level up to 25cm. Due to space and living on the fourth floor all my Bonsai - and those that yearn to be - are Mame or Shohin.
Merci pour cette belle vidéo qui me donne envie de me faire un petit bonsaï. J’ ai une petite question : combien avez vous d’arbre dans votre collection?et deuxième petite question est ce votre métier les bonsaï ? Encore bravo pour votre travail
Merci beaucoup, je fais mon travail à temps plein sur RUclips maintenant, et j'ai environ 170 arbres dans ma collection. La plupart ne sont pas ce que vous appelez des bonsaïs finis, mais plutôt une expérience! Je ne me considère pas comme un proffesional bonsaï, mais plus d'un RUclipsr bonsaï!
Thanks, I like what you've done with the ginseng Ficus! Could you tell me what kinds of Ficus they graft together to creat the Ginseng? I believe one of them is F. microcarpa, but I'm not sure if that's the root or the foliage that's been grafted on. My ginseng began to sprout shoots from the root stock, so now I have a choice of two different Ficus in one tree! I'd like to know what they are so I can decide which to keep, the upper graft died back partially so I'm tempted to get rid of it.
Hi Nigel, Great video! I have recently bought a Chinese’s box tree bonsai and was wondering if you have any advice or any experience of these trees ? Thanks Owen.
I have several growing in the front garden. They are slow to thicken up the trunks, but are really good for bonsai. Check John's videos on Boxwood trees, here is just one of them.... ruclips.net/video/8YfJ1oAICqA/видео.html
Nigel Saunders, The Bonsai Zone. Will have a look, Thankyou Nigel ! Also my tree has very old looking and rough bark, it has vertical plate like bark rows. Do you have any idea if this is normal or is it a different variety of the box wood ? Thankyou again! :)
It is only a couple of years old, the bottom of the roots were removed with a horizontal saw cut and the remaining roots were carved to create smaller surface roots. The top was also reduced from a tall plant to almost nothing.
A tip for Bougainvellia is; if water it good it will produce more leaves. And if u give it less water or keep it thursty then it will produce more flowers. U try try it. It always works
Just discovered this channel and it's gold! Thank you for all the information you share with us. Great video. I'm new to gardening in general, was just wondering do you reckon you can grow a japanese Sakura tree as bonsai?
Hi, Nigel! Thank you for your videos! Here, in Siberia, we have very similar climate, so all your advices are super useful! I have a simple question. How often, in your opinion, it is possible to cut branches of my trees? Can I do it twice or three times a year?
If the tree is growing well, and it does depend on the species. Siberian Elms for instance could easily be pruned 3 to 4 times a year, especially if they are growing in the ground!
Nigel, I've acquired a Crown of Thorns and was wondering how your example has been progressing since the last time. Do you have more than 1 video on Crown of Thorns?
Most of the trees go outside in a more shady spot until they recover. Watering is very important in the week or so, after the work is done to the tree. The only trees that I keep in the greenhouse are the ones that can grow aerial roots and I can't fit all of them inside, so even many of those have to go out on the benches.
This man is the wizard of bonsai. .even his hair is a windsweeped style lol.how he grows all of them..I'm petrified to even try and grow one even though I really want one
for a split second i actually thought you had some sort of bonsai monk who judged your pruning lol
Is that a bonsai bonsai??😂
They sit on his shoulders and wear opposite colored robes, wispering in his ears.
This guy is the Bob Ross of Bonsai. I love it!
Certainly i felt the same....
Love the longer videos! I've been missing seeing you about every other day. lol I find myself wanting to work on my few starts of trees everyday! ...but I just water & watch them and work on my patience.

This has been my week for second hand finds . A legit earthen ware w k wang bonsai pot and two nice little ones, but one is glazed on the inside
Hi Nigel . I'm so glad you worked on the small trees in this video. I have a few mames most of them 1" . My favourite category followed by shohin. Can't wait for spring so that I can to a bit of root pruning. Your trees as usual are wonderful
Thank you Mandie, the tropical Ash trees are still growing well and I'll have to do some work on them soon!
I love your pots! Now I want a 3D printer so I can start making bonsai pots!
That monk looked so real that I first thought it was a real person... Wall-e did look a bit distressed that you cut all the leaves from his tree. ;) Oh, I want to plant trees now! :-)
yeah it is quite creepy how realistic it looks

yes, it does look odd...
You can tell that this guy has a passion for bonsai. And the culture
Thank you, I do really like miniature trees!
the carving you did on your ginseng ficus healed great can't even tell it was carved. great video man.
Nigel, superb work as usual. Trees are developing nicely, especially that Ficus in the 3D-printed pot. Keep up the good work mate.
Love seeing your smaller trees. I look forward to seeing your updates.
Thanks so much!
I love the tiny trees! I live in an apartment so all my trees are pretty small. I got a bougainvillea recently and am so excited for it to look as nice as yours!
Thank you, I hope it grows well for you!
Great Cedar...Love this tree...Looking forward to future episodes with it...Thanks...
Thanks for watching!
All the trees are looking great! The printed pot plantings have really come along nicely, was also good to see your bougainvillea bonsai again.
Thank you J, slowly getting better!
Re-watching and enjoying as much as i did the first time!!
nice videos nigel, you really remind me a bit of bob ross how calming is the atmosfere of your videos is! i subscribed, i also love plants!
Thank you, welcome to the Bonsai Zone!

Thank you Amit, happy growing!
Really excited for your monk forest
That last tree that carving looks very good 😍
Favorite one of your videos I've seen so far!

From 🇵🇭
Thank you James!
All that I see is master's work!!! 🙏
Thank you Sanjay!
Thanks nigel. learning alot from you. I had understood mame. But didn't knew what shohin means. I thought it's just another word for bonsai itself. Didn't knew it's all about different size of bonsai.
Awesome results of mini trees I really appreciate u r patience.. We need to learn a lot from you.. Thank you,,
Thank you very much!
Love these tiny tree's. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Hi Nigel, I thoroughly enjoy your videos, thanks for posting them. Sorry to bother you indirectly, but I couldn't find a way to message you directly through your home page. I'm trying to learn how to carve a "root stand" -- you know, those lovely gnarled stands that look as though they're entwined roots?

I don't see much else online, it looks like a specialty art form!
sorry for any spam on recent videos, I’m just worried about my juniper because the leaves are very hard and some of the bark and leaves look dried up. I’m worried it’s dying on me and idk what to do. I water the leaves and the surface soil. I get the roots wet by a video I saw of leaving it in a water bowl for the roots to suck up the water for a little bit of time (doing this once a week). thank you for the recommendation link and hopefully it lives
Are you fertilizing your juniper?
Jenn Irwin did you look for spider mites?
I got my bonsai end of April so I haven’t fertilized it because honestly I don’t really know how. Also, I don’t have spider mites because my tree is indoors most time. I will start putting it outside now
Thank you all for the advice! I’ve decided to move it outside today and will try to look for a liquid fertilizer asap
Jenn - The Juniper is an outdoor tree. Keeping it indoors will kill it. Also, I hope I'm wrong, but with conifers once the needles start to dry out it's usually already too late. Their roots die first and then the foliage. All the best.
I wouldnt mind a longer version without skipping through the pruning process. Love seeing cuts
I’ve been looking for an update on the bougainvillea forest. They look great in this video. I hope they are still doing well.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video.
Can u also do a video on how u save rain water & use it for ur plants. I mean the whole rain water benefits, uses & how to video
Is it possible to print drainage holes smaller than your soil particle size? Then you wouldn’t need the drainage screen.
You can easily, the only problem is the roots grow through the drainage screens and as they get thicker, it is impossible to remove the tree without wrecking the mesh holes. It is better to have the screens separate!
Good point! Thanks.
Heh, I should have read this before commenting
So I have a Japanese dwarf maple tree. I bought it in its third season. The canopy of this tree seems perfect for how I picture it too be. It's mid July now. My question is. I want to repot my tree. Should I wait till next spring for repotting? It has regular potting soil in a 12" pot.

Nice little trees and lovely pots. your elm forest is interesting do you hold them over in the house for the winter?
What is the age of the bougainvillea Nigel that time pls reply
It is a cutting and is only about 4 years old.
Very entertaining video. Could you show top view more often just give an idea of how the branches spread out!!
BONSAI ZONE LOOKS NATURAL. CANADIAN BONSAI. KEEP IT LOVING. IT'S A PERFECT LITTLE STYLE! SHOWS ARE OK. BUT SIMPLE AS LOVE!

Could you please do an update on your christmas cactus bonsai ? My favorite tree was Wall Es tree :) I thought the bark had lots of charicter.
Can you please make a video of a tour of all your bonsai trees
It will be nice to see all your trees in one video

Helpful vedio
Your hairs are growing nicely.😜 lol
Great video
I think I'll get it cut on Monday, some weird style of course!
Just discovered this channel and it's gold! Thank you for all the information you share with us. Great video. I'm new to gardening in general, was just wondering do you reckon you can grow a japanese Sakura tree as bonsai?
Thank you and yes indeed the Japanese Cherry trees make great bonsai, especially when in flower!
What is the best type of moss that you use for your Bonsai. I love the Bougainvillea.
I collect moss that is growing in full sunlight, usually from cracks in the sidewalk or driveways.
Have you considered modifying the drainage of your 3D pots to include a full mesh bottom structure?
Where did you get the buda ??? The one sitting in Orange.... I would love to get one...Tks. John
New camera? They quality looks better. Maybe it's just me. As always great video
Quick question, why don't you want the tree to flower?
because he said he wanted it to flower closer to show-time
Elena La Loca that makes sense thank you
Regarding the Ficus benjamina "too little leaves": Its leaves are huge. I would post you an image of my planting for comparison, but: How?

Is Nigel an autocrat & you a slave or what?
Shoulders of Giants Dude It is a sign of respect and courtsey
Hi, Nigel! Thank you for your videos! Here, in Siberia, we have very similar climate, so all your advices are super useful!
I have a simple question. How often, in your opinion, it is possible to cut branches of my trees? Can I do it twice or three times a year?
If the tree is growing well, and it does depend on the species. Siberian Elms for instance could easily be pruned 3 to 4 times a year, especially if they are growing in the ground!
Nigel Saunders, The Bonsai Zone Thanks a lot!
Again, l request you to kindly make a video on daily care of the tools, especially after trimming Ficus sp.
Vrinda Bandishte a diluted bleach solution should be fine, like a cap full of bleach to a liter of water?
Can you do something for a new bonsai dude to show where to get moss and how to grow and plant it?
Sir, Is there any ratio for selecting / making a bonsai pot? I mean any Lbh ratio.........., in different shapes, is this ratio differs?
Awesome, What kind of moss that is?
Nigel, I've acquired a Crown of Thorns and was wondering how your example has been progressing since the last time. Do you have more than 1 video on Crown of Thorns?
Another great VDO as always. One query...after pruning, do you keep these trees outside or in Green house?
Most of the trees go outside in a more shady spot until they recover. Watering is very important in the week or so, after the work is done to the tree. The only trees that I keep in the greenhouse are the ones that can grow aerial roots and I can't fit all of them inside, so even many of those have to go out on the benches.
Can I ask how much it cost to get that small printed pot made? All the trees look amazing. I've learned a lot from you.
If i recall in another video he said 6 to 8 dollars depending on size
This man is the wizard of bonsai. .even his hair is a windsweeped style lol.how he grows all of them..I'm petrified to even try and grow one even though I really want one
