    I love this tree because it has no apex, it splits at the top, that's unique, I'd keep that forever. I'd want to do what ever it takes to promote the growth of the two lower branches so they catch up with the top, and thin the top a bit (I would have bit a different bullet, but I think I like the way you did it better). "very dramatic" indeed 🙂 !!!

    Love your thought processes Peter! I have wonderful memories of my visit to Herons this year! And a lovely long video of the two of us talking and walking around your stunningly beautiful paradise. I still faithfully watch your videos every Wednesday and Sunday. It gives my week some defined structure. Unfortunately my spinal problems are still there and I find it frustrating as I love working with my hands. Anyway I do the best I can. Sending you lots of wishes for a long and healthy life. Your friend, Jyothi.

    Hallo Peter du bist einfach Genial. Du bist ein cooler Typ mit Sinn für Humor und cooler Kleidung. Deine Videos sind klasse, weil man sich viel für die Gestaltung von seinem eigenen Bonsai heraus suchen kann.Jetzt habe ich aber mal eine Fachfrage,, Wo kann ich guten Gewissens Bonsai Werkzeuge und Scheren kaufen". Die Auswahl bei Amazon oder irgendwelchen Dubiosen Händlern ist riesig aber es sind meist minderwertige Stähle oder miserable Verarbeitung . Bitte gib mir eine Antwort darauf und vielleicht empfehlst du mir einen Verkäufer. Danke schon mal im Voraus und weiterhin viele schöne Momente mit deinen Bonsai 😊

    When you were talking about what to do to the tree I was thinking of actually tilting the tree to the left about 30deg or so it would look like a tree that was going on a mountainside.

  • @uppergorple
    @uppergorple Před 7 měsíci +1

    An excellent tree. It looks like a real-size, troubled Scots Pine! Conforming to literati criteria isn't necessary with this. See what the back-budding offers next year.

  • @jfdb59

    Wonder what it would look like tipped on it's side to make a semi cascade and remove the top left side of the crown.

    It's interesting as a novice bonsai grower to watch the minds think and design. I prefer a larger bonsai but I also like smaller ones as well. I have a very specific plan with mine, letting someone else trim and work on them would mess with me haha. I have a while to go on my pines as they are only a few years old now. I have a question for you, would you put sphagnum moss around young pins to encourage mycelium? Will it grow on it's own or should I help it for the trees health?

    • @2702simmo

      Pines and fagus produce mycelium automatically. Although some spores put in the soil would help.

    Geese there guys. I think this is one of those anxiety laden video experiences where, well, every time Peter picks up his clippers, waving the clippers around, who knows what will happen? Ya know. Almost too much drama to tolerate. Whew. Definitely repot this one, maybe more angle. The angle. Definitely the angle. Oh yea Peter, I wanted to report that I found a hole bunch of big red ribbon bows at a discount store here in New Hampshire and yesterday spent the afternoon gathering hemlock cuttings from a young grove growing in the woods. Tying the cuttings together with wire, then a red bow and then on the house for Christmas. Thought of you through this process. ✨🌟❤🌟✨

      You have the Pinus Longifolia (?) but needles are too long. Try using the Casuarina and make it look like a pine.
