Bonsaify | A Springtime Visit to Rakuyō Bonsai with Andrew Robson
Vložit
- čas přidán 19. 08. 2024
- Join Eric for a tour of Andrew Robson's "bonsai dream land" - his new garden at Rakuyō Bonsai! Andrew specializes in deciduous bonsai; in Japanese, Rakuyō literally means "falling leaf".
We wanted to provide a bit of context, as Andrew mentions "Telperion" a number of times in the video. Telperion Farms Bonsai was a major supplier of bonsai material in Oregon. The entire property was lost in the devastating fires that burned in September 2020. Fortunately, owners Lisa and Chris Kirk managed to get out with their dogs, but it seemed that most of the bonsai were lost. Andrew has salvaged some Telperion trees (dug up after the first) and you will see them in this video. We believe that it's wonderful for the bonsai community to know that some of the Kirk's legacy lives on at Rakuyō.
00:00:45 So many pots from Nao Tokutake, a bonsai potter based out of Hillsboro, Oregon (www.tokutakebo.... We love Nao's pots too; Eric brought home a few that will surely show up in future videos!
00:02:00 A Telperion Pine which Andrew calls a "cutting".
00:03:28 Another Telperion Farms tree cut out after the fire, with help from Andrew's beautiful dog Bailey.
00:04:11 Discussion about ground growing and grow bags. Andrew offers the tip that the proper way to develop ground grown trees is to dig them out and work on the roots every few years.
00:05:20 Andrew explains how the combination of wiring and cutting creates really nice deciduous bonsai.
00:05:48 A previously show-ready dogwood responded poorly to a heat wave, so Andrew did a major cut back.
00:06:32 Eric shares how he learned bonsai while admiring a gorgeous wisteria display.
00:07:12 The guys discuss a Beech forest composition that Andrew put together 12 years ago while in highschool.
00:08:22 Andrew shares a subtractive process he enjoys with forests he calls "de-composition".
00:09:23 Why Andrew thinks forests are great.
00:10:10 A mixed forest composition that enthusiasts living the the Northeastern U.S. will appreciate; American Beech, Sugar Maple, and American Red Maple.
00:10:45 Crazy bark on a Korean Hornbeam!
00:11:58 "Phoenix" Maple that rose from being half-burned in the 2020 fire at Telperian. (Any Harry Potter fans watching this video?)
00:12:32 Little hummingbird's nest in an Oakleaf Beech bonsai!

👏👏👏
wow.... a very beautiful and very inspiring collection of bonsai ❤️
Awesome! The more time with Andrew the better!
Nice tour! Thank you!
What a garden....
Great video!
Great video Eric. Bench tours are always very interesting - hearing the history, seeing what people are working on, techniques they are using, how they see the trees developing 🙏
3:25, dogwood?
Lots of roots on that thing for a ‘cutting’.
The Sweetgum is the best I’ve never seen!I would have like see it better!😭Thanks for the video!💪🙌
Yeah, great tree for sure. And unusual. That's good feedback though - we'll explore how to better show the best trees from a garden tour. Andrew has so many it was hard to choose!
@@Bonsaify yes, many good trees sorrounded by more of them!Thanks
👍👌🍎🙂

Hi Eric thanks for showing these amazing trees. Can you mention the name of the cork maple cultivar at the end?
Nishiki gawa I believe. If you google that and maple you'll see it as a cultivar of A. palmatum.
oooh what a nice garden Andrew you got!!!
is spaghnum moss what l see as subratrate in 50% of those trees?
is it just the top layer or is it the whole pot?
is there a reason?
l’m asking because l have a tree in spaghnum moss to recover but since it’s pumping like a beast l was considering to use it as a substrate for more trees…
Hi - I believe Andrew uses mostly APL mixes - so the sphagnum would be just on the surface. He does have a CZcams channel, but it's nacent: www.youtube.com/@rakuyobonsai
perhaps if I @rakuyobonsai Andrew will notice and respond.
@@Bonsaify many thanks Eric and thanks for your channel…when l want to chill l randomly play one of your videos🤟👍❤️
