- In this video I take some pines and show you how I analyse the material to determine what decisions have to be made in order to begin the process of creating a bonsai.

Well said, Peter... 'In life you can't get everything perfect, nothing comes to you on a plan, you got to create it '
It’s so reassuring to know that even masters of bonsai occasionally struggle with deciding on design! Peter is often very quick with decision making and doesn’t hold back, but to see a thought out and debated design is helpful as a beginner to know these problems are faced by everyone from time to time!
Thank you Peter, I hope to visit your beautiful nursery in the near future!
Personally I like the long video.
I love watching Peter working and learning from him while I relax after long day of work.
Never miss a video, it help me free my mind lol!
Love watching you work through your thoughts to find what’s best for the tree- Shawn from South Africa
Thanks for this video Peter! I was wondering if you have the Lodder video finished yet? Have a nice day, Ashwin
i badly want to scroll to the end and see what you finally did in the end....but also dn't want to miss how you make all the decisions
Thank You once again for your knowledge and passion, you are a breath of fresh air in a mundane world. 👍
I hope by now your heatwave has passed. It can be brutal in the hot greenhouse! I'm always looking at my bonsai trees with that critical eye, asking myself if I should trim here or there. 🙂 Thank you for reminding us that even a pro like yourself does this.
I am so excited everytime i see a new herons video! Just seeing these pines in the opening shot feeds my urge to quit my job and do Bonsai full time, i wish i will have a nursery like Mr. Chan one day! So beautiful, gives me pure peace of mind!
Come and experience Herons with a short stay some time.
@peterchan3100 this is on top of my list Mr.Chan! My name is Saimon btw, I will take a trip to the UK from Switzerland as soon as possible! Looking forward to talk with you in person🤩 I want to open my own nursery one day so I bet you know all the tips and tricks💜
Great , love the pines! Your long videos are the best 🌟👑 thankyou 🙏
Really good watching you work through many different possibilities and employing a wide variety of techniques.
What amazing raw material. I’d love a Scot’s pine 😮❤
So so so many options this tree gives
I love the real time videos! Seeing and hearing Mr. Peter make design decisions in real time is such a treat! Thank you!
Great thoughts!
Great plans!
Great idea!
Great knowledge!
Great work!
Great for the environment!
Great for the nature!
Great inspiring!
Great example!
Great motivation!
Love the hat, always, and the title of this vid! 😊😊😊
Like to see large-ish rafts, over rock, forest, mountain/hillside slopes, scorch from lightning, windswept, seaside beach, species for such projects. working with fruit trees and tropicals. Larger items could be 2 or 3 part series like selection and overall appraisal/plan ideas up on the bench, then the finish up touches and the process decisions made.
I am saying this with utmost respect, but I want a "Sometimes you've got to bite the bullet" Herons Bonsai shirt.
A lot off times we second guess ourselves. I do like the original position that you were thinking about and came back to in the end. And yes I would cut off all those branches on the bottom tier, both left side and back, just go with the top 1/2 of foilage. Steve.
I’ve been growing my Premna bonsai in an indoor green space. Very vigourous growth, but requires high temperatures (27°C) but because I get to have growth in the winter i’m having a lot more fun because my growing season is indefinite. Even have a maple leafing and it’s the middle of February. The Maple Will be returned to natural seasons this year. I chose to protect it because it experienced some trauma. It did get to go dormant, I just shortened it’s winter. I’m loving practicing this horticultural Art. And by the way, Peter, the weather you’re experiencing currently looks like the weather I would experience only in mid March (Canada cold). So thank you for adding temperature to the dates. It helps me figure out when other locations could start working on there trees.
Lovely video Mr Chan as always. One day I will have as much confidence as you. Just started my channel but love bonsai so much. I need to visit you again at some point, all the best!

As I find the solution to a design problem there are many solutions.
I am always aware, there is never one solution to the problem.
What I am after is what I call the WOW! factor. It is the perfect solution to the problem. When it is present to the client and they understand the solution. That is what I after, it is the ultimate response WOW! That is what I call the WOW factor.
I can see it in you, trying to find that WOW! factor, when you are developing the trees and visualizing how the tree will look when it becomes mature.
I also put the design solution in the front desk to see it every day and think about it the final solution plus I get to see and evaluate people reactions as they see it and comment on it. 😊
That is what we all try to achieve as someone who like to problems solve.
Peter thank you for another enlightened vlog and the thinking process.
Take Care and have a blessed week see you on your next video.
🙏🙏🙏
You and I are absolutely on the same page. Thank you for your perceptive comments.

Peter, we all around the same age. I am in my 70’s, you probably a lot younger than me, but we came from the generation of common sense thinking.
I generally like to try and understanding what the problem is before I go ahead and work out the solution. Not trying to finding the solution without knowing what the problem is, that is like guessing and hoping you get lucky.
It is like harvesting the field without planning it first.
It is always good to find someone who also has the same approached in problems solving.
Take Care my friend, see you on your next post.
God bless.
🙏🙏🙏
I have a "Blue Spruce ~ tree/bush ~ got it at HD about 15 years ago. Mushroom shaped. I have trimmed it a little. Now about 12 feet tall. Maybe a little more. I guess I've decided that I am intimidated by it. I did "clean out" the interior about two months ago and it is noticeably different but I have not gotten out a ladder. The now eight inch trunk goes up to what is pretty obviously the out of control top. ~~~ Thinking of you as I gather courage. Thank you so much for your inspiration. ✨🌸🙏🌸✨. 🇺🇸
Love this video. Great insight into the process of evaluating trees. Thanks!
Another video!) One question I never thought about asking myself when I do a bonsai is "If I cut this, what would be my leader?" Peter, thank you for the insight of asking this question and for doing this video!
Also (just saying from here in New Hampshire) ~ "Biting the Bullet" in this country is derived from the great carnage of the civil war (in the USA) and the very deprived and primitive conditions for, well, Amputation. Ya know, with a saw, nasty and bloody business, not usually successful, but always, the patient would "Bite a Bullet" through the process. Whew!
Hello, this is a great video.
I live in Johannesburg. South Africa hottest day I remember was 43deg c
Thanks!
'The heart has to feel it, not what the eyes feel'
this truly is a tricky tree....
❤❤❤
Great lesson in bonsai and life! Thank you. What kind of soil is best for pines?
❤
👍👌👌🙂
Hope that little maple was relocated.
Are this some of the Herons yamadori you where collecting with Kevin?
They have been growing on our land for the past 37 years - We dont collect from the wild but from our own land at Herons.
@@peterchan3100 yeah i know, i watched the video, you were collecting at Herons, so i wrote Herons yamamdori instead of yamadori😅
