Am I the only one that actually could watch a 48 hour pruning video? I like to listen and watch while I work. Something about the sound of the pruning shears is relaxing. I would even go so far as to say that 48 hours of just pruning with no commentary would be awesome.
Really?
@@peterchan3100 Indeed. While I very much love your instruction videos and greatly look forward to them, I do also love the idea of just watching work being done in your nursery/garden for the sake of it. I make jewelry for a living and don't get away from my work desk as much as I would like to... so it would almost be like being able to enjoy the sanctuary of such a wonderful place even though I can't go there in person. It just seems so beautiful and relaxing... a type of ASMR I guess.
@@HeatherfishCreations Come and visit us one day. You will find it really relaxing here.
@@peterchan3100 Perhaps Someday. :)
I've been raising Bonsai since I was a teenager but still enjoy watching other people prune and style. I feel you have the best or definitely one of the best youtube channels on Bonsai / Oriental Gardens. Keep up the good work and video production!
Thanks for your comments.
I love this guy. I can watch his videos all day.
I could watch this for hours.... it's the least I can do till I have a garden to grow my own..
Humility is the foundation in which true greatness is built upon. Thanks Peter for delivering your knowledge quietly.

You, sir, are a treasure for the world bonsai community.

Really beautiful!
Again!! Snip, snip, and snip!! And Peter has created magic! Amazing.
The bonsai tree is also gorgeous, but this gentleman has a magical way of grabbing your attention even when there's really nothing much.👍👍👍
Thank you for sharing your wisdom. I have one of these tree and I have no clue how to take care of it. Now I think I can keep my tree happy and healthy.
Please post your 2 hours pruning video, I'll still watch it... watching you pruning is so enjoyable.
Absolutely stunning trees, and easily the most detailed and high quality video on niwaki pruning I’ve ever seen! Really gives you a respect for these trees, the pinnacle of artistic pruning technique
Thank you for your kind feedback

This is such a helpful video. I'm a member of a Japanese Buddhist temple in Portland Oregon. We have several old pine trees in our garden that need to be maintained. We've done different things over the years as far as who was caring for them. Most recently the temple has decided to let people volunteer to do the maintenance. I've been reading about Japanese gardening this year in an effort to be a better help to my community. This video sums up and shows the practical side of so much. I've shared it with my temple community and am so grateful to you for sharing your experience and wisdom with us. The trees look beautiful.
Perhaps one day I will come and give you folk some lessons on how to prune your Temple trees. I would love to do that!
The greatest gift of the garden is the restoration of the five senses.Thanks for an amazing video.👏🌳

Trimming trees is one of my favorite things to do! Beautiful done and thank you for sharing sir!
What a difference Peter, I trimmed a large overgrown white pine that was shared by these 3 rental properties, now it looks beautiful, the flowers, grass and ground cover are growing again under it, everyone says it looks so beautiful now, it's amazing what a little work (well not little) does. Thanks for your tips, just did a Bonsai with my niece yesterday, she did a good job, chopped a lot off, didn't expect that from a girl, thanks again for all the encouragement and your time.
Good for you - I would like to see what you did.
My fondest desire would be to have you at my property for a week. You are such an inspiration!
Nicely done Peter. Truly a labor of love. Thanks
I have watched this video now countless times and starting to get it... thanks very much for this.
Very helpful Peter! Got answer to all my questions
This is the most comprehensive Niwaki video on youtube. Excellent.
Very helpful. Pruned species Black Pine in a big planter today, needed some Niwaki coaching. I candled them too early last year for our climate.
Thanks!
Thank you so much for such a clear and informative video. I’m just beginning to learn about Japanese gardening techniques. I have a lot to learn, so I’m glad I found your channel here on RUclips.
Getting ready to create our backyard Japanese-inspired garden (geometric because our yard in the city is deep and narrow) and watching a lot of these videos. This is the best one. So was thinking a kousa dogwood as the centerpiece (pretty easy to maintain), a “fence” with climbing hydrangea to back the garden (and hide the garage wall and dog run), and two Japanese black pines. Now thinking one pine will be as much as I can handle. I need to look more into weeping somethings to complement...thanks for all the wisdom.
absolutely gorgeous. Peter you are a real bonsai expert.
Loved the finished look to the Scotts Pine. Made a big difference.
So love watching your videos!
Mr Peter thank you for great video,i hope we se training of niwaki from earlier stage in future videos,how to make shape of trunk with pruning etc....
Wow what a difference showing trunk makes..excellent work
Always a pleasure to watch your work sir
10/10 audio quality. Thanks so much for the effort.
Wow, the audio and video quality has come a long way! Really enjoyable video

I have a very old tattered and shapeless thuja orientalis in my front yard. I had the intention of taking it out but your videos have inspired me to try and turn it into a giant garden bonsai. It’s going to take me years because old wood doesn’t bud easily so I’ll have to cut back in stages. I don’t know if it will work anyway I’ll give it a try.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge, Peter.

@@flavio81686 Good trim on that tree
Beautiful work as always
There is satisfaction in pruning and shaping a tree. I have a weeping thin-leaf Japanese Maple that I had left grow for many years. Last year I decided it was way past time to prune, so I watched videos of people professionally pruning such a tree, and then I went at it. I think it turned out well . . . and this year I did some more pruning, but not as severe. The tree had only a very few small dead twigs as compared to large amounts, so the letting of the sun and air into the structure along with the showing of the limb structure really improved the heatlh and appearance.
2 hours for that is quite the patience! Things that nature teaches you 💚 thanks for the awesome video
ruclips.net/video/W6kd2FF9x4g/видео.html
Beautiful video! Great job! These wonderful pines like a giant bonsai 👍👍🔝
Really fantastic job! Looks stunning 🤗🤗🤗 Sending you 39 sunny and warm hugs from southern Sweden 🤩 to all of you at Herons

I love this. Great to see an expert talking through how to do this. Very educational! :D Thanks.
Thankyou so very much for sharing your knowledge,, what a wonderful guide you made. I understood it is a fine art. But, as my first detailed video you have given a very good, strong introduction! Thankyou again
Thanks a lot for your great videos! I have a black pine in the front yard. and your video helps me to prune it the right way.
you are now watching a master at work. I hope to have this in my back yard one day but maybe 2 and half as big
NICE!! BEAUTIFUL PIECES OF ART
thanks, Peter . . . i see; how beautiful; lines of branch & tree trunk . . . hidden beauty in an always beautiful tree . . . human & nature working in harmony
Thx for sharing Peter,. Such pruning would probably take me a week 😁.
ruclips.net/video/W6kd2FF9x4g/видео.html
Great works, Pete. Truly professional.
Beautiful job
Thank you for explaining the Japanese terms and reminding us of safety!
ruclips.net/video/W6kd2FF9x4g/видео.html
Thank's for that Peter, very informative and a great transformation. I bought a pair of these tripod ladders this year they're brilliant.
ruclips.net/video/W6kd2FF9x4g/видео.html
awesome. when you cut the lower big branch i heard the words " BE BOLD" in my head
I agree. I liked the branch because I prefer the depth it provided while adding balance to the left side.
“Clouding” is definitely an apt description as it gave the appearance of the trunk bursting through the clouds.
Excellent video Peter thank you .
I always love the longer videos!
thanks for your feedback - I always am afraid they might be boring.
@@peterchan3100 never, you have such a passion and it's so inspiring
Very enjoyable and informative, a well made video and no annoying music. ありがとうございました。👍🏽
I went to a Christmas tree farm and studied the different evergreens and read their descriptions. I love how the Scotch pine individual needles are flat and twist like a loose corkscrew.
I always look forward to Peter's videos.
ah man i enjoy your pruning videos they are very soothing. great video :D
It appears to me that the production quality as well as the audio and visual quality have been improved tremendously! Thank you Dr. Chan for another Awesome video. 😎
Bonsai on a large scale ... love it
What a wonderfully enjoyable video. Thank you so much.
Excellent work...great vision as to what lies hidden beneath!
Beautiful work Mr Chan.
Bravo ! C'est magnifique ! Vous êtes un Maître.
とてもきれい。日本にいる気持。わたしも庭木が欲しい。ビデオありがとうございます。
Excellent video, love those ladders
Wow....hard work and accordingly amazing outcomes
I'm watching this again. So sweet.
Beautiful! What a lovely video.
This must take a very long time, it makes pruning smaller bonsai seem easy! So interesting, I watched every minute of your pruning.
ruclips.net/video/W6kd2FF9x4g/видео.html
Amazing video...amazing transformation of the trees....
Nice! Im planting small Scots Pines at my summerhouse and will prune and wire them like bonsais. Very inspiring!
Bless you man, i find great joy in learning this...
ruclips.net/video/W6kd2FF9x4g/видео.html
A Master's beautiful work.
The way I look at, starting from the bottom and working your way up makes the most since also. Everything we build practically starts from the bottom and you work your way up.
The tree's turned out beautifully. I have been thinking of a way to prune back a blue spruce standard that has outgrown its location. This maybe a technic to look into I think. Thanks for doing this video.
Absolutely amazing work, you're the coolest!
ruclips.net/video/W6kd2FF9x4g/видео.html
This is what we call "the middle of summer". so wise
I read it is a good idea to give a tree a deep watering before intense pruning. Also, your method of starting at the bottom makes sense for another reason, you won't keep dropping needles and branches onto the below area.
Beautiful
Imagine all the new trees one could grow from all those woody cuttings. Beautiful
Really something. Pleasure
Thanks Peter. Lovely trees!
Excellent quality
Beautiful job.... I saw no signs of madness only mastery....
Wonderful demonstration!
Thank you!!! I love the video! So very helpful! I sincerely appreciate the longer videos where you explain so much. Thank you😊💜👍🏼
ruclips.net/video/W6kd2FF9x4g/видео.html
4:00 you want help to open it 🤣🤣🤣
Awesome video
great video sir
They are gorgeous! It is so satisfying to see the difference experienced pruning and shaping can make on a tree. Hmmm. Perhaps there is a life lesson in there somewhere.
Make what you will of it - Some principles that I practice myself are. - a bit of patience - try new things - be bold - don't worry about what others think - share with others and enjoy what you do!
Thise are all areas I have been working on since I hit 40. I have not perfected any of them yet but I don't give up.
I love Scots pines
A wonderful learning experience!
Mr Chan you are the doctor for the trees
@Herons Bonsai Hello Peter isn’t one reason to prune early with some outdoor bonsai pines to get a second flush of candles to speed up the shaping process and fill out the clouds quicker, thanks for a great video 🙏👍
Informative. Thank you. Will have to check out the Japanese ladder.
fantastic video
Always love your videos, you always do a wonderful job, very beautiful.
