  • In this lecture Bjorn styles a Boxwood, or Buxus, from nursery stock material. He also discusses stage three development for broadleaf evergreen trees, as part of his online course on creating a bonsai from scratch (from seed, cuttings or air layers).
    See: www.bonsaiempire.com/courses/...
    This Buxus had an established nebari (stage one) and thick enough trunks (stage two), so it was ready for moving into stage three development. Bonsai nurseries sometimes offer this kind of material, but a nice radial nebari as well as tapering trunks will make this kind of material very expensive - all the more reason to develop things yourself from scratch! After a mild styling like today, we can choose to repot the tree as well, but if you are not sure, always wait until the next early spring. This video is a free preview lecture from our Developing Bonsai from Seed course.

    I actually snagged a nice little Boxwood yesterday at a nursery, with beautiful flared nabari, excellent foilage and development for a small (7inches) little plant. It sadly has just 1 trunk that is very set, however the trunk tapers and then reverse tapers strongly. Really looking forward to styling this over the fall and then repotting as we move into next spring. I especially like seeing the technique on the straightened wire to separate as opposed to completely wiring the trunk.

    When describing your brace, you mentioned you used copper wire and that it was “work hardened“. Can you tell me what that term means and what is the gauge of wire that you’re using?
    Thank you so much for this video. It provides a lot of information in a way that a novice can understand. This is very helpful.

    When describing your brace, you mentioned you used copper wire and that it was “work hardened“. Can you tell me what that term means and what is the gauge of wire that you’re using? And can I find a video for what you were doing with the aluminum wire, and what is is called?

    I have several bonsai I started from nursery material. Several spruce and now boxwoods. Love them all. Thanks for this video. I was wondering if trimming and also doing the roots at the same time is too much trauma for the plant. A lot of online advice I have been given is that since I did the trimming and shaping I should now wait at least a year before transferring them to bonsai pots. Thoughts?

    • @bonsaiempire

      Well it depends on the vigor and health of your tree. I like to spread out work over time though, but if the tree is super healthy you can prune and repot.

    I'm confused Bjorn. I have watched several videos now (September 1, 2023) and everything I find says to trim them in early spring (I'm zone 4), but it looks like this video was from early August??

    • @bonsaiempire
      @bonsaiempire  11 месяцев назад

      Ah no it was early spring, the video was not a live video.

      @@bonsaiempire Sorry for the confusion, but I first read the description box located below the video, and that is where it was stated '1 month' ago, putting it in early August....

    Sad but true: during the pandemic, I fell in love with bonsai, but now - a year later - I'm losing interest. 😔

      @Chris-oq6kn Год назад +5

      The pandemic gave me the chance to dig really deep into this hobby and it took off for me. If u lose interest u might need more trees 😂. Or start making ur own from nursery stock. Maybe u have more things going on but im still interested somehow. Im even gonna take the trip to the US nationals this year just to meet all these guys and hopefully see bjorn and all the world class trees they have there.
