A fascination with nature and the inspiration it provides Episode 34
Each week we get this call to discover something new in nature. It started with my son saying remember when i was a kid: we found something new to do each week. Since moving within a few miles of my son we have done just that... we have found a new town to explore, another state park, another river, another stream, another mountain range, another historic sight, another sunset, another sunrise, another day trip, another beautiful family day, another ...

Yes you have seen this tree before: just not as in-depth as this episode. Its been a wonderful opportunity to bring this tree into the garden when it was a 7 or 8 foot tall nursery stock tree. What a beautiful sight to see as this tree grows into maturity. So so amazing what can be done with an Acer Palmatum on its own root stock in really a short amount of time. Its been a privilege to help th...

This tree has been in training for two and half years. This tree was initially wired and styled in August of 2022. We did an initial potting from a growing pot into a shallower UN-glazed pot in March of 2023. The tree exploded with growth within a few months, so i did a partial de-candle on some of the strongest areas. The rest is history as they say. I love having so many different Japanese Bl...

Two years ago this tree was used as a training tool to show students how to bend a completely straight trunk pine. We removed the wire after about 1 year as it was starting to cut into the bark. In early May i began its initial cleaning preparing it for a little wire. I had planned on finishing it a few days after its initial clean out. Life happened and three weeks later i was able to go back ...

Making a Ginkgo Biloba Bonsai

In 2021 we purchased these Ginkgo trees. They were about 9 feet tall and they were in 15 gallon pots. In March of 2022 our third year students helped cut these trees down to something we could put in to very large about 18 in long by 13 in wide and 5.5 in deep training pots. Here is the story that has unfolded since then. In many of the segments throughout this video i give a lot of great infor...

As i say in the beginning of this video my goal was to do a video and re-pot on a Ginkgo biloba tree. The rain was fierce and deafening so it didn't allow me to film today.

I wonder why mine looks so different
Insfiratif and edukatip👍,salam dari Indonesia🙏🙏🙏
You are very welcome 🙂
Love these prehistoric beasts!!!! Great video thanks for sharing
You are so very welcome
The colors in your nursery are outstanding!
Thank you so very much, lots of different kinds of bonsai trees create beautiful colors 🙏
Just a man and his power tool. Oh and his tree, there’s a tree too! 😂
Right!
Very neat looking tree... never worked with a Wisteria... may have to look into it!
You should!
I have a little Hokkaido that I have zero idea what to do with... I hopefully will strive to have it when it's this old! Cool tree.
Have fun
100th like!!!!!
Why thank you!
What a MONUMENTAL task... Well done sir
Thank you very much
That's a very nice tree!!!
Getting there😊
I think so too!
Awesome styling!
Thank you very much
What a cutie... great job papa
Start them young

Good eye!
The pot measurement was a great idea... almost seems so obvious as in, why did i never think of that before? LOL
It's the smallest of things that make a huge difference.
Oooooh, here they are!!!
Wait, where's the video????
watch and all things bonsai re-potting will appear
Lime sulfur?
Great video! This is great content. Very peaceful to listen to, but more importantly visually appealing and informative.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the comments!!
Peaceful as can be...
Yes yes and amen
Good remake of a great song...
Right
Can you propagate these easily?
Yes you can, it's a tree we do each year and get cuttings from
The ancients!!!!
Wait wait, what day is national beer day?! I didn't know such a day existed. National Beer day for me is just any day that ends with Y and has any type of occasion attached to it... PS, what beer did you drink? I got to drink a Pliney The Younger on Tap 2 weeks ago for a limited release here in Fresno! Beat that!
Nice!!!
I'm envious of your mornings... someday....
You can do it!
Cool I'll have to give these a look!
You had some beautiful Azaleas at your facility! Can't wait to come back in the future.
Us too!
The Secret, they sit in water and fertilize fertilize fertilize!!! Great advice Ron!
You got that right!
Had a great visit to your amazing garden this over the weekend Ron! What a massive transformation.. Look forward to returning sometime! Thanks again for the great hospitality on Saturday!
You are so very welcome Sir, glad you stopped by and picked up a few things you needed. We look forward to your return visit 😁
Great advice.. think this is something that gets over-looked easily here in California...
Glad it was helpful!
Man it's a good thing you don't have to go much higher than 3 because that' about as high as I go 🤣
Me too depending on the day 😁😎
Beautiful tree!
Thank you 😁
Very sweet lookingTree Ron thanks for the Info. Does the Garden Center ship trees out of State? Love to see more of the Garden Center.
Hi Gregory, on occasion, we do. There is so much involved in packing, securing the tree, travel back and forth to get packing material and shipping. It just has to be worth our time 🙂 Thank you for your comment 🙂!!
Wooooowww
Thank you 🙏🙏🙏🤗🤗🤗
Good work removing that gnarly circling root. Best wishes on the continued development of your maple!
Thank you very much! Its a wonderful part of a tree's journey.
Yes! This is valuable information
Thank you Sir 🙂🙏
I know you said that you were going to do the roots but they are still in the same can. Disappointed 😢Dennis
Yes that is a future Video, when I began to do the roots they were just like solid cement and completely compacted. Plus I usually work on one area of the tree give it a break and then work on another area of the tree. Thank you for your comment and observation.
nice start
It's on its way🙂
Nice way to spend a rainy day! love the deadwood you created
Thank you Sir 🙂

Wooww,, awesome❤

Nice pinus!
Oh yeah 🤣😃😁🙏
Wowwwww
Thank you 🙏
I'd like to know how to find a white pine that is so fully branched and covered with needles in this size. All the white pine videos show amazing trees of small stature full of foliage. The saplings or seedlings I find are always very spare. The one here is so beautiful. I'm afraid to prune back my little white pine for fear it will not produce more branches.
Honestly Richard, that is a whole video blog in itself. One way to get bigger trees is to buy 5, 7, 10 gallon trees. However one who needs the knowledge on how to care for that tree in each stage of development. Each pine White, Black, Mugo, Ponderosa etc is taken care of differently. I too once owned lots of sticks in bonsai pots ...and wondered how long it would take to grow up. The answer was 15 to 25 years to get to this size of material. Hope that helps 🙂👍
@@dirtylocustgardencenter7200 It does, but it's sad. I live among eastern white pines and there are so many saplings around. I have one in a pot, and it has a nice trunk with an interesting bend, but the branches are far apart and just tipped with needles. I have no idea what to do with it, and as I said, I don't know how to or if to prune it.. Thank you for your detailed reply.
Fertilize, fertilize, fertilize
@@dirtylocustgardencenter7200 May I send you a picture of what I have and see if I should bother with it or give up? I'm not young, so I probably won't see a really mature "bonsai," but I wouldn't mind playing with it to learn and give it a try if it's worth it.
@@Richard-zm6pt sure you can send me a picture here
You have done a wonderful job on such a dense and vigorous strobus. I am a big fan of this species.
Thank you so much David, I really appreciate the comment. 👍
Thought Eastern White pines were not worth working on....is this a special variety or cultivar?
Good Day, as I mentioned in the video, this was a clients tree that I was asked to style. When they decided to have it leave their collection I was happy to bring it home. 🙂
Looks like it's graft on a Black pine rootbase
Could be!
Dear Sir thanks for The Video, Sir will you be Reporting this Bonsai Tree since you reshape it? Would you put this Bonsai Tree on the Femininity side? And would that Play on what Color and Size of the Bonsai Pot ? Will you be Showing the Repotting?
For now I'll probably put back in the same pot. I may show the repotting of this tree. Finding the right pot is going to be a great study in pots as this is a massive tree. Thank you for your comment 🙂
A tough species to find decent stock
Yes; One doesn't run across these trees on a regular basis. 🙂
