    I really wants to make a wisteria bonsai, but they seem to dislike flowering for me here in Norway. But I would never get my hands on a plant like you have here either.....
    Good to see you in action again Darren. Kenneth

    😂 at the vocal response to grabbing the slug. I probably would’ve done the same. New subscriber. Keep us posted on this tree’s progress!

    This would be an interesting tree species to follow😉 I love the potential of cascading colour when the flowers burst forth but find the explosive growth a challenge to admire in a bonsai 🤔

    Thank you for sharing this beauty. It looks like you went pretty hard on the root base trying to cram it into that round pot. It might have done better in a wooden grow box or Anderson flat for a couple of years. Cheers.

    Rhis was such a pleasure to watch. Next spring my similarly sized wisteria needs to go from the recovery tib into a development pot. If you happen to be nearby, want to give me a hand ;)? Really excellent video, calm and well paced.

    I really enjoyed watching this one Darren. I am going to uproot my wisteria vine and just wondered if you would do this in early winter or later winter? No worries if you are not sure as I will probably default ot late winter. Keep on the good work :)

      That comment was poking fun at myself as in recent videos I’ve made a point in saying at the start I don’t intend on bare rooting - only to end up fully bare rooting!

    That’s a big old piece!!!
    As you were taking the soil off I was getting Roy Neary vibes from Close Encounters, particularly as you picked it up and headed towards the house. (See the bit where he constructs Devils Tower in his front room, lobbing bricks and plants through the window) 😂👍
    Great story telling. This is the kind of thing you excel at for me. 🏆

    2:42 That's a new wisteria plant right there! Did you plant it to make another bonsai out of it?
    Also at the end you don't have to prune the lower branches that are too low?

    • @grobonsai
      @grobonsai  4 месяца назад +2

      Yes I planted that chunk. I will prune them at some point but for now more foliage means faster recovery

    @mariuszkupczyk2137 3 месяца назад

    what proportions did you use for the substrate?

    • @grobonsai
      @grobonsai  3 месяца назад

      I wasn't joking when I was vague - it's just a bunch of ingredients left over, some previous used for cuttings, others just leftover from other repots. It's approximately 50% coir and 50% bonsai soil. In this deeper pot it doesn't matter so much, but when I put the tree into a proper bonsai pot I will use mostly akadama, perhaps with small amount of pumice. Sorry I cannot be more specific.
