My favourite Bonsai Channel, 3 reasons: Place is beautiful, trees are beautiful and the shirts are beautiful. Aside from learning a lot from Peter. Thanks.
What if I didn't speak ??
I watch for your comments and explanations and that dry humor that pops up every so often.
@@jakicatancabelic9436 - Its called English humour.
@@peterchan3100 Love you Peter, your videos are so good, even if it's muted I still learn a lot just by looking how you do it.
36:00 You look pleased as punch. I really enjoyed seeing how you are inspired and your thought process when examining and evaluating the tree. If you have any other plain and drab trees, maybe think about using them as examples for dramatic changes. Great session.
The boring tree becomes the JAZZY TREE! 😊👍
The split trunk tree looks great. Like it was hit by lightning. Also the wiring of the branches adds a lot to it.
Love your ability to change a simple tree into a bonsai so quickly.
Love how the split trunk turned out can't wait to see its progress. Gives me more confidence to be bold and try things
Moin, thank you for this Video! It seems, that you always end up with Maple :-)) that is very apreciated from my side because I share the love of Maple with you! But I also love Larches and Yews and for shure Dawn Redwood since I have visited one at the Bonsai Center Heidelberg, in the southern part of Germany. I really like to see how the "twin trunk" Larch will develop over the years! Thank you, that you share all this with us!!
So...larches hate wire and its temperature conductivity, noted.. never thought of that 😱, thx for that Peter 🙏. love the result of the split larch 😁, and the field full of larches, endless fun of experiments 😁. Thx for sharing Peter 🙏..cheers.
Some fantastic trees in this video. So many times I see Peter start an idea and I think "uh oh... not sure I agree with that", then 5 minutes later the tree is absolutely transformed and looks amazing! I particularly loved that one in the semi cascade pot. What a stunner!
Another excellent video! Keep up the amazing work Peter! Truly inspiring all of us 👏🏼
Whilst relatively new to bonsai, I lost a small larch last winter that had quite a thick wire left on the main trunk. I've now made a larch forest (with Herons trees) and have de-wired it for this winter already! The cold transfering definitely makes sense! Thanks as always Peter!
I wonder if this applies to other trees too?
Oh ! Cette vidéo sur le travail sur mélèze est mon cadeau de Noël ! J'ai acheté un mélèze au tronc en "S" très banal ... mais maintenant je sais quoi en faire , même si je suis un éternel débutant. Je suis sûr qu'en France ,si les gens voyaient comment vous intervenez sur les bonsaïs ,ils crieraient au scandale 😂😉... Et pourtant,les résultats sont magnifiques !
Voilà pourquoi vos vidéos sont une source d'inspiration intarissable pour moi et sans doute pour bien des gens !🤗
Bon,je suppose 🤔 que le mélèze au tronc jumeau a été traité avec du liquide a jin ,pour la cicatrisation ou autre produit comme du mastic???
Merci encore pour vos vidéos qui rendent encore plus accessible l'art du bonsaï ,aux gens qui n'osent peut être pas intervenir aussi radicalement sur les arbres , achetés en pépinière ,par exemple...😉👏🌲🌳
I'm so glad to see that Joshes tree survived, especially after reading all the negative comments from the previous video bending an imposable straight trunk. great work I had no doubt that it would survive.
Oh My goodness what a Beautiful and lovely tree
That pot with feet is so pretty.
The lightning struck larch looks amazing! I'm excited for the picture a day style timelapse of its healing process!
This is a great idea. But a revisit after it healed would be nice too.
I wish be living in UK to buy from you. Always a pleasure to see you working you are a machine 👍👍🇵🇷
Really nice sharing master 👍👍👍
Thanks Peter. I've a couple of Larches to attend to so nicely timed, especially the tip over cold wire.
My favourite trees. Look beautiful in autumn, Thank you Peter for showing them.
I just got my first Larch today , can’t wait till spring till it starts budding out.
This is the first year I've encountered larch. I moved to Montana and they're everywhere up here. Beautiful in the fall. Really was amazing to see the change from day to day. I have one picked out on my sister's property that I think it's going to make a great bonsai
In all this time, I think that’s the first I’ve seen of the “armpit method” for bending thicker branches. Brilliant.
Splendid video. I don't mind the distractions, as long as it's you Peter. Lol!
Peter, looking at the second Larch I could not see any beauty in it ,until you started to split the trunk, from then on the tree took a whole new perspective, I know you say that the end vision is in the making as you work, I could have looked /worked on the tree for days, weeks even and still had a straight trunk. wonderfully crafted and inspirational video , thank you , I will be down in the spring and I might just purchase a semi worked on larch, to stare at for days / weeks . Thank You .
Great video! And I love larches: they remind me of my childhood holidays in the Alps!
Nice redisinged second tree!! Lovely and interesting dramatic twist end!🌳😍👍
The Larch in the semi cascade pot is SO beautiful, well...so are the others. As all work at Herons!
Stunning your a generous sir 👍
Merci pour votre travail.chaque vidéo est un moment de détente.
Amazing Peter!! As always
I love the split trunk. thanks Peter.
Awesome video Peter. Larch’s are one of my favourite trees along with maples and yellow birch
larch are one of my favorite!
The split tree looks simply amazing, so beautiful !!! *= )* 🧡
I enjoy watching you're video learned so from you
Beautiful as a cascade without its original trunk, in my humble opinion sir. Merry Holidays🎄🎄🎄
nice bonsai 👍
🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 thanks Peter
Nice information.
i love it,👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍
You are truly amazing wow
I had this issue with cold and wired branches on mine Larch last winter. Just as I had got it into a nice triangular shape, the lower 2 main branches were wired and having just moved house I never put the trees into the coldframe I have. Gutted, though have jinned them now to develop it into a Literati style. We saw -7 in the garden at the lowest point.
As always lovely trees 👌 I don’t manage to see my larch with more than14 years with me with cones. I don’t know why, plenty cold, sum, p-k, ramification….🤦♂️
Peter, you mentioned air layering larches. When and how do you do this? Another great video, thanks.
Always early spring - this is the best time to do it.
Can you do a video working on medium sized boxwood plants? I picked up a nice looking one and will begin working on it in the spring.
I just had a thought Mr chan, perhaps with the piece you decided to remove you could make a Tanuki with a new Larch thus bringing in the new with the old. Food for thought. Merry Christmas 🙂
3:40 If you squint your eyes it looks like a yellow sci-fi city with lots of floating platforms. I know you say it has no design but it seems like a happy accident to me :)
Mr. Chan do you know what style Felco prunners you use? Example F2, F4, F6 ect.. Also do you suspect that the southern US specifically Louisiana gets cold enough for Larch to survive?
Mr. Chan would it be possible to put some reference marks on the white screen in the background of your work station/greenhouse? For example on the left side of the screen you could put a meter mark for reference and on the right hand side you could put a mark at one foot and/or two foot, just so we have something to reference the size.
Thank you
The width of each of the polycarbonate panels in my greenhouse is 2ft or 60cm. Does that help?
Does it suvive this treatment? I'would like to see a followup' Rgds, Jay.
Would a coated wire, like electrical wire help with winter kill?
Lovely video Peter and thank you! I have a question about your larger garden trees out in your field. Do you regularly water them or do you let nature do the watering? I have about 30 field grown in ground pines with about a 4 inch trunk that I keep to about 4 feet tall and was going to pot them up soon like how you have your garden trees, and I was just curious if being in pots will affect how to water them as mine are currently only watered by nature here in Central Florida US.
they still have to be watered daily in the Summer.
@@peterchan3100 thank you so much!
I love larch, do you use the droped neddles in the pot for lower PH ?
It's bit of a myth that fallen down needles acidify in a any substantial way soil or the substrate beneath them at least on the long run. As far as I know larches in general do not even prefer especially acidic mediums.
@@juusoblomqvist363 -You are right - Larches dont need acid soil. The leaves make good leaf mold and the organic matter improves soil structure and provide nutrients like P & K.
extemporizing...nice word...compose, perform, or produce something such as music or a speech without preparation; improvise.
I have been offered 6 hawthorn hedge trees about 20 years old Would now be the time to dig them up? I have until spring before the owner gets in the digger to rip them out and scrap them.
YOu can dig them up now but make sure you get each plant out with lots of roots
@@peterchan3100 many thanks Peter. Looks like I'm going to be busy in the new year.
💕😍👍
Peter, I have a larch that I would love to split into a "twin trunk" but I am afraid it is too thick for my weak hands to be able to split with a trunk for root splitter. Would sawing it down the middle work? I realize that this would not leave natural looking inside edges but perhaps I could carve them to make them look more naturally distressed... Your thoughts?
you could use a small axe and drive it into the trunk with a hammer (with a bit of help from someone maybe). But be careful as always, don't hurt yourself. If you use a saw it will never look as convincing as if you really split it like a lightning strike would do.
And to carve the wood in the split trunk would be quite hard to do as you don't have much space to use carving tools in the split properly. And carving also needs a lot of practice to look good.
@@h.b.1421 Thank you so much for your detailed and thoughtful reply. I imagined you would suggest the axe method (as I have seen Peter do it on a video) and, of course, you are right about the difficulty of carving and the amount of skill it takes to do it convincingly well.
You can start by sawing it and then use a flat chisel or cleaver to split the rest of the trunk
@@peterchan3100 Thank you, Peter, for the follow-up. I was becoming a little concerned about you because I hadn't seen a video of yours for a little while now that had been recently recorded. Please accept my best wishes for a happy holiday season and a healthy and enjoyable new year.

Hi Peter, I was doing research on Maples. In Japan they lime sulfur them in winter to kill any fungus or insects that may be dormant on them. However this process also bleaches the maple trunks and leaves them a nice aged white color. Do you do this with any of your maples?
If I may, I think I saw he's used lime sulpher in the past when he's dug out rooting biys of wood from trees or done carvings I think
@@Stettafire Ohh, I'll have to check that one out, thanks!
Lime sulphur is used in Japan as a winter wash to kill off bugs. This was standard practice in the UK and Europe upto the early 1980s but the EU banned its use as a spray as it was considered toxic. It was used extensively in orchards as a Winter spray in the UK I remember . I dont use it for spraying in winter but use it for bleaching dead wood only.
@@peterchan3100 Really Interesting, thanks Peter! :)
👍🍎👌
In the end that doesn't look like anything. That was disappointing.
I think that first tree is ugly,I wouldn’t want it.
Trees are like people -some are naturally beautiful and some are not. Doesn't mean they are less loved.
Brian, even in its ugliness it is still beautiful. In a few years it will look different and then maybe you'll like it.
I think its beautiful. I enjoy trees with character and this tree has a lot to tell.
Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. I'd live to show yoy my buddja, mind you, I'm no expert and the thing is twice my height
