- How do you get Prunus mume to backbud?
Japanese apricot (prunus mume) is reluctant to create backbuds. Therefor it is important to do spring and summer pruning on this tree.
I defoliate my prunus mume bonsai partially in early spring to trigger backbudding. Then in summer I prune back to encourage buds to open and branches to develop.
First class. I have to say that your videos and your narration are superb...well put together and very well presented and well laced with good information. Thank you. Jeremy
Wonderful work
Thanks for sharing this fountain of knowledge ❤
Very informative. Thanks. Didn’t know apricots were so fiddly. They weren’t on my list anyway but to make sure I’ll make a note to avoid them. 😅
The rootstock probably is Prunus Cerasifera. My father used to tell me it’s a common rootstock used in the trade. He hated it because it’s very prone to suckering. Also the trunk of the fruit trees developed this ugly smaller “ankle” at the base (the rootstock) with a fatter section above it (the graft). I didn’t know it happened even in bonsai. I have a cherry which is obviously grafted but the base is a lot more developed so I don’t complain. 😊
Good information 👍🏻
Beautiful. Cheers from OjaiBonsai
Nice job jelle keep up the good work mate thanks
안녕하세요 저는대한민국에서분재나무을키우고있습니다,,영상을잘보았습니다,감사합니다🤗😀👏👏
Cool T-shirt and Informative video as always 👍🏻🇬🇧
Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for stopping by!
Absolutely fascinating info - did not realize the complexities of working with Prunus mume. Do you know of other flowing species that respond similarly?
👍👌🙂
It can root cuttings well
Hello Jelle, does Prunus Incisa react in the same way if I do this?
I think a similar question has been asked above but is this applicable to other Prunus? Namely your flowering cherries?
Hoi Jelle werkt dit ook voor sierappel?
