We are gaining years of knowledge with each video. Can't thank you enough.
I wouldn't call it experience. More like knowledge
But ur right
@@blackpersoniswear well that's exactly what they said, so
He’s making us much wiser
With each video of yours I always learn something new....thanks Peter....
Love you Peter. Love your work
I like when you do your own trees because you do as you like, yet, customer trees are interesting because of the challenge they offer.
Thank you very much Mr chan for all these videos and mention very well for the cameraman congratulations to you
In my opinion the roots are beautiful, they look so real, because no tree has perfect roots and they will cross
Agreed, it's one of my favorite parts of trees xD❤. Adds interest and makes it look even older in my eyes.
Part 11 breakfast with Peter, Happy Mothers-day to all Mums.
To everyone else stay safe stay well.
Peter and team thanks for bringing happiness in these troubled times.
It's one of the only things I'm watching, something to take mind my off the madness. Gardening is my best way to release stress. Unfortunately we're still shovelling snow where I am, and bonsai is more difficult than he makes it look!
@@jaygray7102 Dont get too stressed. Shovelling snow can relieve stress.
Heard a comment the other day which really made sense,something like “at this time if life seems normal your doing it wrong”
If we all just slow down a bit think about and plan our actions together as the one true Race the Human Race we can all get through this. Although a true ammeter at Bonsai sitting with a tree in front of me time seems to stop and my mind becomes focused.
Stay safe stay well 👍
@@peterchan3100 And it's good exercise, I don't mind shovelling snow, it's just using a different kind of shovel. Also, we have a city 2 hrs. away with spring flowers and cherry blossoms blooming. The best of both worlds.
I learn so much with each video. Thank you Peter. Stay well. 👍🇨🇦
Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom and experience with us Peter!
Another wonderful bonsai video by Peter to brighten my day.
I have been watching you for several months, you never cease to amaze me with your technic.
Hes got his own style like every great artist.
Thank you for the time you spend making the video's for us to enjoy... Much appreciated.
Peter thanks for all your videos, you are an amazing Instructor. I enjoy all your videos
Mr Chan and Team, thank you for your amazing and educational work, amazing to learn from !
Excellent video. Thank you also for the background explanation on the nomenclature of white pine, black pine and five needle pine.
God bless your soul Mr.Chan.. thank you for the new hobby.
What an incredible transformation. I don't have any mature bonsais yet but I look forward to making those brave decisions and learning from my mistakes. Thank you Peter.
I always like the "ugly" roots on his trees.
Love this Chanel. You learn so much!!
This is a genuinely helpful video, good explaining from mr. Chang and nicely filmed. Gorgeous tree👌🏻
Just bought a baby white pine nursery stock, it will be my first foray into bonsai. This video and many others of yours have educated me a lot. I'm almost ready to start pruning and wiring.
Looks amazing 👍 thanks for sharing 🙏
Nice job Peter. Loving the thought process.
Hope you are safe and well 🙂
Such a nice tree 🏂🤩
Nice tree. Even better now . Thank you stay safe.
Excellent looking tree now 👍
Perfect timing as my white pine bought from Peter is undergoing reshaping work 😀
Needs wiring to finish, this will help me a Lot thank you.
Very interesting about the number of needles. Lovely tree and great demo as usual.
happy little trees :) good job, peter
I learn so much and appreciate each video.
Peter. Of course, I knew you would make this tree the perfect tree it could be. Perfection! And I love to watch you at work. You are inspiring. But I want to comment on your videographer. Who ever filmed this did a terrific job. I loved the attention to detail and the low angle shots were perfect! They showed more about what was being done than any other filming I've seen. It's like the person filming was as eager as I was to see every detail. When a hand reached in to clear the shot. YES! Perfect. When the camera moved quickly to get the best shot. YES! Perfect! Please give my greatest thanks to the one who filmed this. I LOVED every exciting minute of it!
Hi Terry - this video was taken by a volunteer who comes to help me on Saturdays. He watches all my videos, so I hope he has seen your comment about his good technique.
The more u see, the more u want to know and watch Peter do His magic. Educative and entertaining, easy to digest too. Beautiful result Peter, thx for sharing and can't wait for the next week..3 videos a week..Yaaay..stay safe to All..cheers
Fascinating, captivating, obviously a master at work. Do your skills include providing a time machine to take me from my 60s back - say - 20 years so I can try these things AND see the results? LOL.
At the end here to hear this was a Saturday morning, proof if you do what you love you are never really at work right? Really appreciate these videos during this time alone. Much better role model for my kids to be around too.
I wouldn’t know even where to start. Amazing job!
Just beautiful.
Thousand thanks from France for your vidéos, your unpretentiousness, your sense of sharing. Take care of you.
Thank you for your kind feedback my friend - if you have enjoyed my videos, then I feel it has been all worthwhile.
this is one of my favorite trees other than a red Maple youve done. your Amazing!!!
Wow, what beautiful specimen. Only in my dreams
He is so humble. I’d love to have a tree he thought was so cool. Too bad I’m in the US
Fabulous👌👌 ur style of working is so nice, i m always so amazed at how u take so quick decisions while working on any bonsai👍👍
Your videos, Мaster, are the best! Teach us the weight that you know yourself! Thank you for the science!
Excellent and so informative, wish I was a student of yours. I try these kind of things in my yard sometimes. My neighbor said “why are you doing this”. I said it is art!
This is by far the best and most professional RUclips channel I have ever seen! No music, all content!
Thank you Peter.
Awesome as always thanks Peter. 👍👍👍👍 Tricky Trev🇦🇺
Wonderful video, thank you, special thanks to camera person, who most likely got in your way, but enabled us to really see what you were doing!!
looks great
Great camera work on this one, and of course Peter is always great! 🙂
wow very beautiful..
Planning on paying a visit to heron nursery's, cant wait.
Beautiful
Thanks for sharing your wisdom and it’s done with so much grace.
What’s wisdom got to do with it, knowing how to do something, doesn’t make you wise…
What is wisdom but the application of knowledge. You showed how to apply knowledge.
Great content & good camera work
29:30 If anyone is trying to aggressively bend a large branch up, you can use a turnbuckle wedged between the pot an branch. With a turnbuckle, you can get very precise movement from the branch and if it's starting to damage the branch you can back it off for the moment and periodically tighten it little by little in the future. When trying to bend a branch down, you can use the same method by extending the turnbuckle and wire one end to the branch, and the other end to a wire that is holding the tree in the pot or attaching it to an extra wire you put around the pot.
Thankyou,Peter is Good Master Bonsai
Whoever filmed this (Padmapriya?) is a genius! Always the right perspective to follow Master Chan along, thank you all so much for all the effort you put into these videos!
I love that shape
That was very interesting.
Excellent
Ahhhhhh so relaxed ....................
i never liked pines for some reason, but they've grown on me during the past few months.
just out of curiosity i picked up a couple recently, especially these japanese ones are great to work with i've noticed :)
Like a bird had sat on the tree and flattened it. Haha! Do you mean a bird in the British sense? Thanks for the awesome videos! I hope you guys are all safe and well at Herons.
What do you mean?
I've had a Nursery bought 'Hagoromo Seedling' variety that I purchased last spring that was nothing but a dense ball of whorled branches. I spent a couple of hours yesterday pruning and wiring it. I've took off a huge leader that was almost at a right angle, so fingers crossed the new leader does okay!
Patience with the tree, if really care about the long term care? It could be better 400 years later with trades of care! 🙏👌
@@efo1358 the tree is already some age as the trunk is quite significant, the inner branches were not getting any light so its a labour of love!
Soo so Adorable and Beautiful You are Amazing
I've learnt so much from watching your videos. Can you do a video on crab apple bonsai? I've got some starter trees and advice would be appreciated.
Hi Peter!! 👋😎👋 I read or saw that one way for beginners to learn what gauge wire to use is to take a few inches of the wire and see if, when pressed against the branch, the branch bends or the wire bends. Is that what you would agree with also?
That is a really beautiful tree, I like that you do minimal work on your trees for sale. To me, as a beginner, I would rather have something to do right away than waiting a year to manage that years growth. Thank you for thinking of that! And thank you for all the videos you produce, they are very helpful.
Have a great week, Peter!!

Thanks - but intrigued by the abbreviation at the end. Is it meant to be 'Good Bye and Please take care of yourself' ?
Peter Genius!
So is this something that should be done right before spring? Wondering when this video was taken. Thanks.
You know it👌🙏
First of all, thank you for entertaining us in these troubled times. However, speaking as someone who is from the middle of Europe, please take the virus situation seriously, even at herons. I know Britan takes it rather lightly, but it is serious. Peter, you and your staff should definitely wear masks when in close proximity to each other. I'd hate to see something happen to any of you guys! Take care, you're a good guy...
nice watching all your technique .Please let me know is it necessary to unwire the bonsai. if yes then when?
Wonderful video as usual.
May I suggest you put the tree on a stand for videoing. The bench is constantly in the way of your camera person.
Hello, another great demo. Are you able to reuse wire that is removed after training?
Of course you can re use wire
How are things in the U.K.? Your videos are always very informative, Thank you for continuing to post!
Beautiful tree Peter! If you shipped to the U.S. I would buy something from you sometime just as a thank you for sharing your knowledge in these videos. I know they are a lot of work in filming and editing. Do you find Japanese White Pines grow extremely slowly once they are potted? I mean slower than say a Scots or Mugo Pine. I have one I got from my English Professor's Japanese gardener about thirty years ago. Its trunk was about the diameter of my small or ring finger when I got it and about the height of the tree you're working on in this video. It is also grafted on Black Pine rootstock. I have not pruned it back hard, fertilize it two or three times per growing season, re-pot it every four or five years in a slightly oversize pot, and still the trunk diameter has only increased to perhaps the diameter of my thumb or slightly more in thirty years. I have only pruned it enough to keep it from getting leggy and maintain its height. Compared to other Pines I have had it just doesn't grow much. I'm not sure if it doesn't like the climate here or what. It looks healthy otherwise. I thought I'd have a tree about the size of the one in this video in twenty or thirty years, but at the rate it is growing, it is going to take at least another thirty or forty years!
I was under the impression that a trunk won't grow much at all in a bonsai pot, and that you'd have to plant it in the ground.
Yes - the Japanese Five needle pine grows much slower when put into a bonsai pot.
I was already waiting for the bag trick. 😁 I think it looks much better with those branches off.
The back to me seems to be the most complicated part. Because in the front you want to show the trunk line and create pads which already dictates somehow how you do the sides but the back is fuller with leafes and not there to show the trunk but to support the look on the front, right? That's why it seems so complicated to me.
Nice tree. ☺️🌿
Sometimes I have to walk away. Sometimes for 3 days. I get a better perspective.
@@nancyfahey7518 This is exactly what I do too.
41:49 in a few seasons I would love to see a repot to slightly angle the leading branch to allow it to parallel the central root instead of sort towering in the front. Basically a clockwise rotation of maybe 15°-25°
Can you grow those branches that you clipped? Can rooting serum work to grow roots on those clippings?
Thank-you for so much usefull information, it is very much appreciated. We have yet to see any apple trees; do they; not make good Bonsai? For I have apple trees, I large, and 3 small, all raised from seed. The tallest one of just over 8 feet, has a wonderfull thick trunk with large roots going straight down. I really want to chop it into the start of a Bonsai. Your valuable thought on this would really be appreciated. Thank-you for all of such usefull information. Just found you on UTube! So mu;ch information in just the eight videos I've watched!
what happens when u split a branch? does it heal after bending or does it stay split?
Years ago I did a few bonsai, but then dug a hole and sunk them in for the winter. It worked but keeping that up for years was unsuccessful.
That’s a very nice white pine 🌲 how much does it cost
I have a question regarding wiring. Are there reasons for wrapping ontop a branch vs. below a branch?
Easier to start the wiring doing it this way but not mandatory by any means - do whatever you feel comfortable with doing.
Peter, a Q: why do you have the turntable so far back on the work top you look as if you are stretching too far, also at 43:13 do you think the top is too high as just below there appears to be a natural curve to the top with the foliage? A lovely tree, next video please.
Doesn't bother me.
Can you do a videos on how to increase ramification in maple and pines? That's what I'm having a hard time with.
Do you defoliate your trees?
Do you have any videos of mugo pine. I have a couple of mugos about 7 or so inches tall. They are very hairy. And I want to start them. Thank you again.
I have done several on Mugo pines - look at the one "Creating bonsai from wild material" - I posted this a few weeks ago.
So how much would you be prepared to sell that tree for?
how can i do with a pine with branches on wagon wheel
What's the best way to propagate pines such as Scots Pine?
By seed or graft on to a stronger variety of pine.
How to you achieve so little bushy tips of needles? My Pine has Pines all over the branch... do you pull them out or does it come with time when trim the candles ?
You can cut the candles off when they start to grow - how many and how much to remove depends on what you want to achieve. I will show this later in Spring in another video.
peter chan thanks peter
Miles better!
what soil for pine ? i took 1 out of sand from a forrest put in in dirt now is that oke ?
well, "put it in dirt" is quite unspecific, could you elaborate on that?
in general i would put them in 40/40/20 parts, being akadama, pumice/lava rock and compost/composted pine bark
just in general very airy soil, please avoid clay/mud or too much organic material
Master peter how to propagate a pine? Can do with cutting? Sorry my english is bad
Pines are either grown from seed or grafted on to other pines. Cuttings DONT work
@@peterchan3100 thank you so much 🙏
I'm not EVEN close to styling a tree this way :-(
Why does Peter always use aluminum wire as opposed to copper? I’ve seen him cross wire quite a bit too! Is he just doing this for demo purposes? Just curious as to his method vs Japanese rules and practices of disciplined Bonsai.
And it's possible to cuttings from the pine trees...
I literally would mall over for days what branch too wire needlessly to say making a major decision to take off an entire branch too cut completely off.. I have way to much anxiety and second guesses two work on such a exquisite Specimen such as this beautiful old white pine. I would easily pay hundreds to have a Master refine my Prized prize specimen!
Son muy buenos sus videos en un nivel pedagógico. Solo una sugerencia, que no tape con su cuerpo el trabajo que esta exponiendo. Que se ponga detrás del trabajo que está explicando para que no se pierda el proceso de dicho trabajo expuesto en tales vídeos 👍
Bonjour vous poser du fil de cuivre ou d aluminium pour ce travail merci 👍🙏👏😘débutante 🇫🇷
Needs a little compacting...
