I can’t beat the feeling that a part 2 is needed here...
Part two will be in about 15 years 🙂

I can watch you making bonsai for hours. So satisfying.
I love peter's " don't be scared , just do it " approach to bonsai .
joeyhernandez14 the axe man cometh.
Aware this comment is old but I VERY MUCH agree and had to say so. I'm a beginner and until I started regularly watching Peters videos I was so scared to make any decision and worried I'd ruin my trees. His very unconcerned approach to things has really helped me become a better caretaker of bonsai, just as much so as the bountiful information he gives :).
I'm always so scared to take away that much! Plus I'm new, and teaching myself through these videos, so still walking softly at shaping them. Thank you so much for all your vast knowledge! 👍💕 Absolutely beautiful!
Less is more, so don't second guess your vision!
It’s very helpful when you say when you’re doing the video. That way, even when watching years later like I am now, I know when the relevant action is done at the right time in the season.
Working to Bonzai 2 Michigan Red Maples from seed, Wish me luck :) Both a little over a year old as of now. Alot of fun seeing them progress!
I always learn something from all you videos!
Not expecting anything, just having fun watching your tutorials.. more blessings to you and your team.
You are truly an inspiration I always look forward to seeing your videos thank you ...
Such a Beautiful tree 💚💚💚🍁🍁🍁
🌼💚The art of patience💚🌼.. beautiful video, awesome work
Thank you! Very helpful. My favorite Bonsai videos!

You mentioned starting cuttings in a mixture of peat and sand. Do you cover them in a bag to maintain humidity, or leave them in open air?
Two videos in a day 👌👌👌👌
Would love to see a video of propagation to this stage. I have a really young tree and I don't know how to bulk it up so that I can get to this point to prune hard.
Im the same. I have a very young tree so I'd like to set it growing in the right direction.
Thanks for the vid
Will be trying some air layering this year
先生、これは何の木ですか？その葉はどれほど美しいでしょうか？

I love watching your videos but can you do something about the volume, when a soft spoken person and a nearly deaf person meet problems
Make a video of the tools and how to used them. Thanks
Can I cut like this my nursery maple in August?
Nice video!
Nice videos... i do really love watching your videos❤️🇨🇦
Thank you for sharing
Hi Peter. Love your show. I am from Bellville On. Canada. When you chop a trunk, do you have to have branches growing below the chop or can you cut down below the bottom branch. Thanks, Daryl
Has that tree had any training or selective pruning? It has a lovely basic structure to it already, revealed by cleaning it up a bit. Japanese maples are among my favorite trees and bonsai. Thanks for the video.
Learning what to cut decides how to wire. The right cuts give the most to the structure
Given the growth you achive on your trees what fertilizer do you use and how often do you apply it .Thanks
Very helpful video. Thank you.
Can you root cuttings at any time of the season?
Do you recommend training/bending the trunk of maples?
I don't have an "upright maple"..but I have a "cascading maple," a Red Dragon. I bought 2 from my local nursery (small, young, 3 gallon pots, about 1/2-3/4" trunks, 2' tall); but their trunks were very straight and upright and uninteresting.
So, I bent the trunks (with twine and bamboo stakes; no wire wraps) about 45degrees one way from bottom of trunk, and the top of the trunk back to centerline, to give a nice curve and S-shaped/C-shaped trunk.
Is the curved trunk appearance advisable for Japanese maples? Or, is it only for other trees like pines and junipers, etc.?
They will be used as Niwaki/outdoor trees. I will transfer them to a 15gallon pot maybe next year so they can grow a little more.
I think the cascading maples look lovely with a twisted trunk, particularly if you prune from underneath and lower down to reveal the shape of the trunk. I have a Red Lace and an Orangina which both cascade and both have naturally developed slightly contorted trunks. In their natural Japanese habitat they sometimes are pictured on the sides of mountains where they would naturally be bent by winds anyway, so I think it's very naturalistic. They never look their best straight up and down. Twist away!
If you want to bend the trunk on a Maple it has to be done when it is no thicker than a match stick. Anything thicker will risk breaking.
I love the Japanese maples :) Is there a time of year that would be best to do big cuts, like shortening the trunk? Thanks from Canada!
I have 2 maples about 2 feet or so but they branch out near the top and have no side branches for the first 18 inches or so. I have been told to let then grow for a couple seasons and then to work them (which I plan on doing) but noone has been able to tell me about keeping the plant short and ensuring side shoots will occur for me to be able to work in the years to come. What's your take on it peter chan?
When was this video shot. It’s mentions this time of year to prune but doesn’t say the date.
David Hart it says mid june
Zi T3rrat0r ah yes. So it does. Thank you.
What if my young maple forks at the bottom. Two main trunks. What can I do?
can you make cuttings from a laceleaf variety?
Neighbor , " What the hell happened to my hedge ?!? "
Me , " Looks like someone was experimenting with a clipper .Should look great in 700 years ! "
Very interesting as always!
How long would you normally leave in a big pot?
Interesting! Let's grow!
Thank you for this video,
i have subscribed now so i will see all the videos in time. :)
I am very new at bonsai, so this is the first time i have heard about rooting powder.
My plan is to mainly do Yamadori, so i have a question around that.
My main worry is that the roots will not develop when i get them home and put them in the pot.
Is the rooting powder good for new trees also, or is it mostly for established pot trees?
Petter Eliseussen The best soil mix for root development is spagnum peat moss
Rooting powder is a synthetic plant hormone that induces root formation. It's mainly used for cuttings, in order to encourage root development from the branch where previously there were no roots. It's not used on established plants or Yamadori.
Cool dude
Hi Peter, do you ship Maple bonsai to Asian countries?
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience.
Maple is the best
Should ALL maple bonsai be trained in a conical shape? I have about a dozen different maples that are now big enough to begin training. But I don’t really want to do them all the same way
I feel like the conical shape is just a general idea. The variations within that tapered shape are endless, it's not really that much of a constraint.
What time of year was this pruned? I’m thinking of pruning my maple trident
he says at the beginning of the video: it's middle june
Can you suggest an all around soil ? for indoor and outdoor bonsai . thank you.

at 3:30 mark! is that a spider?! lol i hope it's not a black widow or any poisonous spider out there! i used to play with them but as i grow older they started scaring me! hahaha
Great video with great content touching on a range of things. My only complaint is you are super quiet. I think you either need to speak louder or speak towards the microphone. Still a great content though!
Did I hear a helicoptor go overhead during the filming of this video?
What sort of environment do Maples prosper in?? Having about 10, given the area of plantation. Asking based on the future value of such an item (given a Stable market) 🥃🥃🥚🥚🤺🥑🥑👩🏫
Could you use the cuttings of the maple tree for propagating more trees?
I believe in another video Peter says that he does. He doesn't like to waste much. It inspired me to sneak a cutting of a Japanese maple at the supermarket when the landscaper trimmed off some young shoots.
He mentioned how to do it. Did you watch the video?
what else could you use them for?
can u bend a maple trunk?
He just murdered that tree lol
Sand and what else to pot a cutting into?
Sand and pete moss
I have been trying to grow red maple from seed for 4 years now with no luck.
Andrew Betrosian did the seeds ever germinate?
@@valrie9157 4 years later, no I have not not. sorry for such a late reply, didn't know till now.

can i grow maple tree in india?
ugh...newbie NEWBIE here but wow, i feel like he took way too much off this tree! I keep hearing dont be afraid to prune and cut, but wow that felt like so much cutting!
I can tell you that he knows what he is doing. After pruning there will me a lot of new growth in places you want it. Also it was grown a lot before. Thats why the tree is strong and can handle it.
I love bonsai but I am not into the whole shaping and styling what I am doing my at home is legit I just want mini trees
Why not make it look good too? Your mini trees will look like bushes otherwise
Zachery798 no they don’t they look like perfect mini trees
People are not understanding what they are seeing in the video.. This is not a finished product.
I agree with fingersoup .
Maybe you are a dumbass because most of us understand.
❤👍
i want maple tree...
the tree got a haircut
I can only hope the ‘don’t be scared’ comment stands true, otherwise I’m about to ruin a maple.
I should let him give me a hair cut, he's good. 👌
sound quality
Cannot hear what you are exactly saying! Mic is so weak, looks like you are mumbling....Good video though.....
Palmatum cuttings never worked for me. Succes rate 0% :(
Sound problem again.
really
What a wild child! Certainly looks better -
Luckily you are not my hair stylist. I am just kidding. lOL.
Great videos shame we can never hear what your saying. You need a mic or a better sound man
I can hear him just fine. If you ever miss a word, just pretend he said "conical shape" and it will all make sense again.
I agree. It would help if he would wear a mic instead of using the camera mic. He is usually facing away from the mic.
Turn on english captions it can help
Joder y yo mirando que ramas cortar y cuales no... pero si es mucho mejor así!!! zasca zasca venga rapidito y con alegría eh? y ya luego si eso....
Can't hear much.
I'm looking at you, Torontonians.... a plant means many things in the office. And You know it! So why do u always set us Up to fail?
Can’t hear what u are saying even with volume turned up!
jana darnold I think you need a hearing test
@@georgeastill7206 🤭
Poor tree....😢 You cut it down to nothingness! 💔😐
I watched and admired your work before , however this looks like you hacked this one???? No disrespect I know you know what your doing .
Kończ waść, wstydu sobie oszczędź
You just butchered that beautiful maple.
This guy has decades of experience and owns some of the most beautiful and expensive bonsais in the world, I think he knows what hes doing
You would think yes?

@Jack appeal to authority logical fallacy.

That was a nasty thing to say!!
"This video is about How to shape a Maple into a bonsai from scratch".
If that is a bonsai I'm Jesus Christ!
Hallelujah!!! 👏👍
This guy has no patience.
No, he is experienced that he knows exactly what he wants as he goes.
That’s why he’s got 21 gold medals at the Chelsea garden show 😂
You realy scare me by youre bad way of trimming... stop doing that!!!
you are scared because you are an amateur and Peter is a master.
Bad work, I didn't like his shaping.virtually destroyed such a nice healthy tree
