- In this video Corin demonstrates how to defoliate an Acer bonsai in order to asses the structure and prune. By defoliating the tree will have a second flush of finer growth that with the added structure prune will improve the tree's elegance.

Another cracking demonstration of professional technique, accompanied by the reasoning behind your decision-making. As always, I shall look forward to seeing the tree in a few weeks time. Thanks for this super video!
Another interesting and timely video. There are loads of us out there needing this sort of information to improve our trees.
Yet again enlightening...Many thanks. I notice people asking about your scissors, had a pair from you about week ,10 days ago ...... Lovely weight to handle and good n sharp. Can recommend.
Definitelly more than good for us, thank you Corin.
Keep them coming Corin, excellent content, informative,good pace and nice length, now on my must watch list. 👍
Your work is amazing, i really enjoy and apreciate what you are doing. I hope your channel will grow up, you definetly deserve it.
Agree with all the comments your video has been a massive help cheers
Great video. Your English really, but you explained it simply and understandably. Thank you
Excellent video, I have learned so much in this short time that I started to watch your videos,
Thanks for that..
Another fantastic insight into the fabulous world of bonsai with the the no1 bonsai master himself, his wealth of knowledge is so amazing, I for one cannot wait to see the progress of this tree 😜
Fantastic video, seriously boosts my confidence when it comes to my maples. Thanks for putting the time in to make these 👌🏻
Thank you Corin, for me your videos are very helpful und informative.
Thanks for the awesome videos my daughter and I both of like the two pots you chose, but also like the unglazed lotus pot you tried.👍
Thanks for the video :) I love how you explain everything so well!
Brilliant. I was inspired by this and defoliated and pruned my okay but cluttered butterfly and desojo maples kept the trees shaded as the greenhouse is full of tomatoes and chillies! Thanks for the inspiration. everything seems to be growing back fine.
Thanks Corin. Lots of timely info.
Once again Corin, an excellent and informative video; look forward to seeing the tree's progress.
Great video, he’s making a double flush maple lol. Glad you started this channel, I’m watching from the US and have learned a lot and gotten myself a lot of good ideas for my own trees.
Great video! I will look forward to the follow up.
Fantastic videos Corin, can’t wait for another.
Many thanks for the demo. Have just done a half defoliation on my maple group planting. Will now move it into the shade 😏
Great video. You're like the Bill Ross of bonsai...very easy to listen to.
Great film as usual, very informative.
You can never visualise the tree looking like that at the end but always explained well and makes sense why it does. Is this something you do just on the larger tree's or does it apply to maples ? Another great video guy's keep em coming!!
Thanks Mark, you can do it on maples of any size. Glad you like the vids and thanks for the comments
Once again great video and informative. Thank you corin
Thanks Corin. Waiting for the tree to leaf out.
I saw a Herons video yesterday which mentioned how defoliating like this can make the plant make larger leaves.
I was trying to think of an explanation for this as it is opposite to many trees. But the node drawing moisture and nutrients from the cut point would make a stronger hence larger leaf.
No it doesn’t. They don’t push larger leaves after defoliation. That info isn’t correct. However i would add that after defoliation don’t put it in a greenhouse or poly tunnel and don’t feed until new leaves are out.
Great video as ever Corin.
Great vid thanks
nice work bro, i love your work, respect, I would like to see this tree with new leaves!!!!
Thanks Colin
excellent tutorial on Maples Corin
Great information as always, thanks for sharing.
Pleasure as always.
Nice one Corin.
great vid Corin, many thanks.
Thank you for excellent video!
Thank you Corin. May I ask for a video on how to thread graft Trident maple. I can't find good videos on the technique.
possibly, but I usually do them around early march, before buds swell too much.
amazing job
Awesome video.
Awesome video. Thanks.
you are so professional
thanks for your work , like
Hello. Good night from Spain. I was surprised to see the defoliation of a steel, I had understood that deciduous trees could not defoliate, except in autumn, when its leaves are already beginning to fall to improve the entry of light and favor sprouting for the following spring. Could you explain to me, if possible, the reason for this defoliation technique at this time of year? Thank you so much Greetings and until the next video👍😄
Good
Lovely hollow
Corin, will you link the dead wood in the future? lovely tree.
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I have a Japanese maple about the same size that is the perfect candidate for these procedures. Now I don't have to be anxious about doing what needs to be done! One question though, since I don't have a greenhouse...would full shade be appropriate for it's recovery period?
Thanks for the very useful video, Corin. I see that you take off the leaf stalks too, when you defoliate with your hands. Isn't that detrimental for new growth?
this techniques you do lose a few more of them, but on a healthy tree it has no effect.
Some of those scars are very big. Perhaps the previous owner didn't use cut paste?
Are the gaping trunk holes intentional?
Not being a smartass: that's a good looking tree!!!
Question about the leaf stems. You keep them when you’re clipping the leaves, but it looks like they’re being removed when you strip them by hand. What is the reason for keeping them (when clipping)?
Btw, I’m enjoying the videos!
Can you do this just 2 months after repotting and root pruning?
Good enough for Yoshimura, Valavanis, and Tomlinson, good enough for me! Ha HA!
muy bueno, en que estacion del año estas
Love your videos, can this be done on all acers - I have a bloodgood acer?
I have a japanese maple next to my house, can you show us how to make our own bonsai from a larger tree?

Hello sir. My JM's are all in pots, and all of them are leaf scorched and look horrible from our massive heat in Texas. The watering isnt the issue. I'm positive it's leaf scorch. They look horrible. Won't cutting every single leaf off KILL it? I'm frightened but I'll try. Can you advise? It's still so so hot and still early summer here...
Defoliating it won't kill it, but ideally should be done end of June, so you are a bit late, I can't advise about keeping them in Texas. Because as much as I'd like to visit, I never have.
does hand stripping also remove most of the stems?
Question: After spring defoliation (and a mild pruning of healthy 10 year old acer palmatum ), could i still repot it and hard prune it this fall/winter?
You would normally hard prune and repot in Spring
winter moth caterpillars take care of this for me, the next 4/5 weeks
❤️ 🙏 😯
Very good, does this procedure apply to all deciduous tree's
acer,s, zelkova, and some hornbeams generally
@@greenwoodbonsaistudio Does a Korean hornbeam fall in the "some" category? I have one that I was going to do soon when I came across this video. Thank you for all the one's you put out.
Love those scissors you use in this video. Where can I get them? 😁👍✂️

Would you do the same for a Trident Maple?
yes you can, but they have a smaller leaf, so its not always as necessary
What scissors are you using?
It’s ok. Just found them on your web page.

Someone needs to start filming bonsai trimming in 3D. It's quite difficult to understand which twigs are where
And by "someone" I literally mean someone, it isn't a passive-aggressive way of saying "you"
WTH, man???? 😅
Leave the leaf petioles, but then goes fingertip mode, ripping off the petiole of every leaf pulled.
Actually most petioles are still intact. Just showing different methods, use what works for you.
I just wanna cry when i see how fast you prune the tree. It takes me half an hour to decide which branch i should remove or let🥹
