    This man's mentality on bonsai always cracks me up. "This was air-layered ONLY 10 years ago". Patience is key and this man has it in droves.

    I am so glad I found Herons Bonsai videos! These are the exact info I was seeking. Our large Japanese Maple has many small trees scattered all over our yard and we were pulling them up and putting them in small pots. But now I know that we will need to keep them in the ground or put in large pots. I really appreciate this information so much. Thank you kindly!

    I've watched most of Peter's vids. So I was really surprised to see a technique I had never seen before. Using a mallet to hit off the dead wood is genius!

    I really like mame and shohin bonsai, because it does not take long to make it beautiful as a large bonsai! And this is my opinion!✌👌

    You are a true artist. It's one thing to paint, sculpt, photograph, carve etc, but to be able to take a living plant and create what you do is amazing!.

      Just take it with a pinch of salt. How they handle them are very species specific. I destroyed a bunch of my first trees after trying to copy, but for different species.

    Mr. Peter, what a superb way you have of giving us the basic rules that so many others like you ignore: you are a natural tracher. how much better your videos would be if your camera videographer would simply put a "peanut" mic on your lapel. Hook the battery pack to your belt inside your coat, to conceal it. Then snake the mic with its cord up your shirt and clip it on your clothing. Simple, and we will hear perfect, clear audio.

    5:15 That thick V-shape cutting can be a nice bonsai tree. Just put into the water and wait for a few months. After that you can have a thick trunk bonsai maple tree.

    Wow, I can’t believe how much pruning it takes. Seems very severe to someone uninitiated. I love my maple, it’s very young and I think it might have just died this spring, guess I will need to start again.

  • @paolomh113
    @paolomh113 Před 6 lety +1

    So to create a large trunk is by letting it grow in a big pot? I'm looking for a quicker way, but in this case will not be better to grow on the ground?
