Thank you! These videos are incredible.
Any updates on this tree? I love blue spruce and would love to see this tree evolve. Love your work!
What I want to know is why 16 people decided to give a thumbs down on a free video for training of a bonsai?
I've been watching Bjorn's videos for years now, and he's concise, easy to listen to and helpful with his subscribers.
I agree, I consider Ryan Neil and Bjorn to be the 2 top class u tubers. But there subscribers and viewers don’t reflect this. Especially with Ryan neils Chanel. Maybe most people not super into bonsai don’t realise this.
There are dislikes on every single youtube video, no matter the content.
People can be dicks..simple as that..Bonsai is just one of a few hobbies that I follow, and by far the people are into bonsai tend to be the most helpful and kind to each other..my guess is these are people who brought a tree without doing any research, and Bjorn is saying something they don't like..I'm sure they didn't realize this was something that you should be prepared for 10 to 50 years or more to see something show worthy from your endeavors.
i disliked because i saw this comment
Trying to keep any plant or tree in colorado alive, im giving in and just going to restart with what works and lives local 😮💨 glad to find this video.
A Master Class in Bonsai.
When you bend that branch down at 28:08... Boom! Pulls everything together. Genius.
Quite the transformation already. Look forward to seeing it in the future.
Wow is amazing, thanks for giving us this $1000 tutorial for free, you are a master..
This turned out really great. I especially like how you take the time to explain in fine detail how to achieve theses great bonsai trees. In the past i had horrible luck with them and i used to be able to grow anything, and now it seems that i got my green thumb back. I cant possibly thank you enough. Looking forward to more videos on your lovely trees.

The finished shape of this tree was amazing. I love watching you work, very meticulous.
I had a stroke in 2020 and have time to work on trees I have. my Taxus Baccata, similar to this was wired yesterday it's very scary operation. I've had the yew about 7years and have decided to start and shape it. this post was wonderful sir very clear, I forget lots so I have saved it and subscribed to see the follow up I'm 64 and want a nice tree to offer my grandson. thank you Master . clear instructions . nice edit best wishes from Suffolk, England.
Love it. The before and after shots at the end were amazing. The tree is going to be so beautiful.
One of my favourite trees you've styled so far, your father will be so pleased with the outcome.
Your skill speaks for itself, though I'd also like to say you give excellent instruction. Thank you very much.
Absolutely awesome, you are a very talented artist and teacher. Thank you for sharing all this great content.
This is GREAT! I grew up on a ranch in Central Colorado in the 1950s and 1960s, we had a Blue Spruce and I have always loved that tree, as I do the Ponderosa Pine. Last Christmas my son gave me a small Blue Spruce as a gift. Rather than planting it in the ground (here in Seattle) and having it grow into a monster, I wanted to make it a bonsai, so I could take it with us if and when we move. I am indebted for this great video! Domo Arigato! Komhapsumnita! Thanks!
Absolutely incredible. Extremely thorough and educational. Thanks for putting this amazing high quality content out!
This was so great! Thank you Bjorn. You are such a great teacher, explaining your thought process all the way through. I was eyeing some Colorado blue spruce whips at a nursary today and am insprired now to work with them on a tanuki armed with the tips your brought forward in this video.
Great shape. Got the makings of a beautiful umbrella
I'm pretty new to Bonsai, I was surprised how amazing you made the deadwood features, particularly how Jin on the top brought the rest into balance. I'll check in on your work from time to time, rock on!
Hi I am sure your Dad loved the work you did on his tree. Well done
Stellar work. Stellar video. Really loved this one, and how the tree turned out. Thank you.
love to watch this type of transformation tutorials! keep up the good work Bjorn
Wow. Amazing transformation. Beautiful movement and interest from every direction.
Great transformation, I think Spruce is one of the most aesthetic trees to work with in bonsai.
I had a few issues with my spruce , they are all solved thanks to this video, Thanks Bjorn
how wonderful. In Vietnam we are also playing bonsai a lot, very happy to learn a lot from you.
The ART of, Intuition is key, just found you thrilling gross subject matter, love the wholesome vide, trees ground us in there roots, air we breath, thank you for sharing the love you have with us, much needed, peace, NEW fans.
Absolutely spectacular video. Very straightforward and concise explanations. How awesome!
Nice work Bjorn. Would love to see a video on starting young Black pines.
You and Nancy should come up to Bloomington Indiana during ginkgo nut harvesting season!!! The old ginkgo trees I believe are the “pine bark” variety
Going to be a stunning tree. Can't wait to see it when the pads fill out.
I love it how you explain your thought process.. its the best way for me to somehow understand how delicate the art of bonsai. Everytime i watch your vid i learn new thing and to my surprise if i rewatch your vid i learn even more. Thankyou so much. BANZI-U
It looks completely different. I love it
Nice styling Bjorn
Amazingly educative...keep on with these fantastic demonstrations
Stunning transformation thanks for the wisdom it has put a lot of little things into perspective
Discovering your videos for someone who is taking that one small step into the bonsai world is like applying for one of the coolest jobs of being an assembly line worker at Tesla and on the first day of work be asked by the boss to be his copilot to Mars......totally unqualified... but i will never say no🤣..... Sorry if this doesnt make any sense.... It did in my mind lol.
This started out as an average looking tree and has ended up outstanding; you are a true bonsai master Bjorn and your "old man" will, I'm sure, be delighted.
Could not agree more!
That last whip around was awesome.
Looks great. Thank you for your knowledge.
Another great video. I really love your style. Beautiful result 👍👍
Love the way he explained the wiring attitude..👍
love the talk-through of the branch placement. great vid. -Thanks. My eye says ditch the deadwood at the apex
Another instructive and very watchable video. Thanks.
Amazing transformation
I'm in knoxville too. Thats cool. Just getting into bonsai, but I love your stuff. Would enjoy a class if you've got anything like that going on.
Hi Bjorn, I take the time to thank you for all your videos and advices that are so helpful. For me you are the nicest guy on youtube doing bonsaï and I mean it, and probably one of the most talented. Thanks again for taking the time to share your passion with us. I have a little question, do you know what is the equivalent of this species in France?
Thanks Bjorn, that was a very good and informative video.
I really liked the way you explained everything and why you were doing it. You went slow enough so I could think it through with you. Andy
Awesome. I know you weren’t repotting but It seems that some other cool fronts developed as a result of this styling. Please shoot the repot of this one when the time comes, I’m excited to see how it evolves!
This is a great tutorial. More of these man!
Wonderful tree. Great work and thank you for the powerful demonstrated. Love your work 👍🤗
When in doubt just whip it around!
Lol great video. Super informative and interesting! I just wish I had taken a shot every time you "whipped" it
That looks awesome, i really wish for you to try to work on bantigue(pemphis acidula) it's almost similar to juniper pine but a lot stiffed.
Awesome tree! I would love to have a Colorado Blue Spruce Bonsai!!
What a great episode! Please do more about piceas! I really want to get into picea abies bonsai, but it seems daunting.
Alberta Spruce is probably not where u want to start, quite finicky
Yeah I saw a CO blue spruce the size of like 7 aspen trees in its trunk. It was lively. You'll see many after a long day of hiking past the mountain ridge in CO Springs.
I love what you did there
Beautiful work
A really nice styling. It doesn't look like your patre will be getting his tree back for his birthday this year.
I'm disappointed Dad wasn't there and that you didn't do it together.
Beautiful.
nice, detailed and illustrative.
Awesome video. Thanks!!!!
Very cool Bjorn.. Bonsai U Rocks!
Awesome Result Bjorn!! A nice naturalistic Tree. I like the way, if trees are not in the triangle form and have some more interesting Details above to the apex. i think your father is happy with the Result. In Germany we have Fathers Day today, so the video came out at the right time. Big up Dude. Your Impact of the new young Bonsai Way is hughe!!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Hi Bjorn, great film - really enjoying these in lockdown. I wasn't quite sure what you did with the leader. Any chance of a close up shot in the catch-up film? Thanks, Nick.
So beautiful!
Such a huge and great quality information video. Really thank you to share your passion, which is also mine. Sure your father Will be impressed and really proud of you.
very informative, watching video open
Love the new look ❤️🇬🇧😊
I'm gonna have to start doing this several years ago...
Wow great job 👍
I wished at the end, while working with the apex, you would have brought in the camera a bit. You explained well what your plan was going to be, but for visual learners like me it is harder to "see". Loved this tutorial nonetheless, was very well explained and simple. Thanks a million!
Been watching your videos for years. This is one of my favorites. In your opinion, would spruce do well in a warmer summer time climate. I live in Fresno area.
Dave, The Arboretum at Cal State U Fresno has Picea pungens, P. pungens f. glauca, as well as 10 pines and 7 other conifers.
Thanks John!
Awesome!!
Where can I acquire a work turntable like this? Great video!
Dude he is so damn good at styling it’s insane
Wow! Great job! Didn’t realize ur a Tn guy! I’m in Jackson Tn an hour East of Memphis
Good video! Thank you for explaining the process of thinking it’s crucial for a novice like myself. I’ve got a decent Colorado blue spruce i was wondering if i send you a picture of it could you please have a look at the tree and perhaps give us a idea of how to begin work on it.Don’t want to take much of your time, I would really appreciate any tips.
I’m afraid that I might ruin it and therefore I can’t find the courage to do much with it.
Thank you
Kind regards
Alexandru Uk
Very Nice!
very valuable video to me, thanks
very good so beautiful bonsai tree friend 😊😊😊❤
No matter What. I Will always love real bonsais. You have such a talent.
Bravo!! Regards from ARgentina! Keep it up!!
Love the final product, keep us posted as it grows! How old is this tree? Only thing is prob too much off the top, needs unbalanced above the two horns.
Thank you
Bellísimo!!!!
👏👏👏👏👏👏
Bjorn, will Nordman spruce produce back buds in the same way after bending branches? I have some collected trees from a Christmas tree nursery which were damaged by machinery. They have nice trunks but not sure how to develope them.
Currently have a bunch of blue spruce seedlings going. About 11. Hoping to end up with a nice specimen in 15years lol
Amazing
Wonderful, fromNY Thank you
Good job.
hello friends, the bonsai is really good, thank you for sharing, it is very inspiring, greetings, one hobby, friend, from a new friend, always success
As always mahalo!
Lucky dad gets free sons bday trim 😂😂😂
Gday bud. What soil mix would you recommend for Spuce. Thanks and cheers Steve
Nice ! What would you think about a Baobab-bonsai ? Would it get it´s characteristic big trunk after a few years of care ?
Will you be doing any tutorials like how to wire better?
I want a tiny redwood bonsai forest...do you have a video for that?
