    Wicked Nigel! Actually just saw a picture of this tree on Facebook group in the show! So perfect!

    that moss under tray is everything!

    Really love seeing how you are doing stuff that doesn't follow the traditional Japanese bonsai style. You just do what you think looks good. Very cool!

  • @TonysBonsai

    Looks great, and I think the inclusion of the moss underneath it works really well compositionally.

  • @mirandusings

    The base is looking great!
    Personally, I would develop the ramification and shape of the canopy before entering it in a show.

      I really cant understand how he is entering this in a show after 30 years of doing bonsai.

    the moss made it more tropical. kinda like ferns growing ;) great trees for the bonsai show. and accent plants. also awesome tables too!

    I've been taking the dry moss and crumbling it up all over my bricks. Starting to get a nice carpet growing.

    I love this tree, and it is another perfect choice Nigel. It has so much character and uniqueness. Perfection!
    The coarser moss on the bottom tray was the crowning touch!

    The moment where you paused to think about what tool to use, then decided to use whatever you already had in your hand happens to me ALL THE TIME. I spent probably around 100 dollars buying bonsai tools, and the amount of times I use a chopstick, tweezers, or a fork or something similar always makes me second guess my purchases 😂

    • @TheBonsaiZone
      @TheBonsaiZone  2 года назад +1

      Yes, I usually use the tool that's in my hand!!! Funny!

    it looks good on that stand.. i think it needs a casket next to it, with a bonsai coming out looking like a ghost

  • @MaybeBonsai

    Another tree in the show! I am really looking forward to the show, it will be my first and certainly not last!

    Somewhat surprising selection but looking very good nevertheless. The long moss at the bottom tray made a difference...

  • @getintothewildwithjeffruma8777
    @getintothewildwithjeffruma8777 2 года назад

    Are you going to let the roots grow over the edge of the pot and come down to the lower part? In the wild ficus grow like that down and over old temples.

  • @jamesn7156
    @jamesn7156 2 года назад

    What size is that pot? It looks about the length of your hand. I’m trying to visualize it because I have a tree I’m trying to turn into this style.

  • @andrewogawa1029
    @andrewogawa1029 2 года назад

    You should grow your own moss. Different types so you have available.

    If you have time I'd put your accent plant in a bonsai pot.

    • @elbow6380
      @elbow6380 2 года назад +1

      Absolutely. Bonsai show arrangers shouldnt even allow it. Like wtf dude?? Looks like something he just picked up at a regular garden center and brought with him.

    Plastic pot in show sounds like a joke but i dont know how your shows are

    • @elbow6380
      @elbow6380 2 года назад +2

      Yup. Dude should have some pots after doing this for 30 years. Coming with a plastic pot would look ridicilous. Then again he isnt the best bonsai ka out there. I know people that did this for a year or 2 that had much better trees. If he likes them himself i guess its cool

    Best of luck at the Show and Sale today, brother. I’m sure you’ll have a blast. Between your videos, Xin and BlueJay, I’m sure we will see nearly the entire event.
    I do have one follow up question for you, brother. Who is Mike? And why do you like him?😉

    I previously already joined the cheering crowd as it been a great mini-series so much to learn for the preparations before a show.
    I will probably never do it myself but in my experience I haven't seen many videos on this topic. I think the bonsai community really appreciate all your sharing of knowledge and inspiration and maybe push more to dare to display their bonsai.
