    I'm 23 years old, started bonsai when I was 20. Had a few trees back then, including 2 pine trees grown from seed, went trough a breakup, drug and alcohol abuse, and the trees stayed at one of my parents´ properties neglegted for 2 years. Became clean, went back and found the trees under a set of stairs, thriving, still alive. They must have gotten just enough sunlight through the set of stairs, and rainwater dripping down, to survive. I'm clean today, and now I have 22 trees in development. To me, bonsai was, and has become an escape from those dark times, and I cherish them in the beauty it has become.

      Thank you for sharing such a personal and inspiring story. While my story isn't exactly the same, bonsai was my escape from work and provided me with peace and relaxation. It's wonderful that we can turn to bonsai for peace during difficult times.

    Thank you . . . very helpful Q&A. Excellent advice about taking advantage of club auctions and raffles for pots. Older bonsaists or their families sometimes donate a large collection to a club. One can get good deals and also memories of these members. Clubs are often like families . . . sometimes quarrelsome, but most of the time very caring and sharing.

    Good video. Soil for me has always been a question. I’ve actually had people turn on me in groups and local clubs because I don’t prefer a none organic soil with akadama. I use molar clay, lava rock, shale, perlite, and a sandy loam or some other soil and pine bark. A little more of the inorganic then organic. You can water less this way but it’s easier to overwater as well. Thanks for another good video.

    Thanks for another excellent Q&A! I have a terminology question for you. At about timestamp 9:16 of this video, you use a word that I don't know and can't seem to spell closely enough for Google to return anything relevant. "Prudoing?" "Pudoing?" I have heard you use the word in other videos where you talk about taking a "topiary" approach to shaping. I think I understand the concept, but I'd like to learn the word. Thanks!

    What is your size preference for a bonsai? Could you make a video about working on f a larger deciduous tree? (3-4 foot tall straight trunk before branching) I’d love to see your approach and philosophy with something difficult like that!

    • @bonsaiheirloom
      @bonsaiheirloom  Před 5 měsíci +1

      I suppose you can make a very tall bonsai with branches starting that high.
      An alternative is to air-layer the stop to reduce height and let the bottom branch out. OR, cut off to about 75% of the height you want the bonsai to be, and encourage branching to development from closer to the base.

    What are the differences between Japanese and Chinese elms? How can you tell them apart? Thank you.

    • @MiltonChang-ee6rq
      @MiltonChang-ee6rq Před 5 měsíci +1

      Ulmus parvifolia and Ulmus davidiana vr. Japonica
      Both are both excellent bonsai material. The latter has larger and more rough leaves and does not reduce to tiny lesf sizes like the Catlin Chinese elm. It does have rough bark…so makes good larger bonsai.
      Then the names get confusing; Hokkaido elm and it Seiju variants are from Japan, and the bark is more Japonica, but ae referred to as Chinese elm variant. y have beautiful small leaves and rough bark, but the branches of Seiju is very brittle, not suitable for wiring.
      Well, as you know Asian all look alike…Japanese, Chinese, Indonesian….! 

    I have a question. My Japanese maples are struggling in the heat. I'm in South West Australia and we get weeks of 80F temps. The leaves go brown on the edges and some of the new growth shrivels up and goes black. The trees get plenty of water and I have been tempted to put them in full shade, but then I see lots of people with maples in full sun growing fine. Any tips?

    • @TheChanJeffrey
      @TheChanJeffrey Před 5 měsíci

      Hi! I had the same experience as you growing my maple in Singapore, with over 90F weather full year round. I have moved it into full shade, but very bright indirect light, a few thousand foot candle, and it’s thriving now! I think they really can’t take full sun in hot climates, please do move it asap!

      @@TheChanJeffrey 's reply is vey good. It is nature's way to preserve...new leaves emerge very quickly and says green if you continue to water. Japanese Maple can grow very well. Maybe you will give my new soil a try next fall? could be a good combo.

    I do actually have a question: blue star juniper - is this considered decent bonsai material? And why?
    Question 2. Soil. I have about 60 collected trees - pitch pine, VA pine, oak, ash and a bunch of eastern red cedar. Most of them are ready for pots but i don't have 100 or thousands of dollars to drop on bonsai soil. Can you recommend an easy to access "decent" soil mixture that won't bankrupt me?
    Thanks very much.

      Don’t understand…Work with the vendor who you bought it from.
      If it is a dead CA juniper, you can nail a live Juniper to it and use the trunk for age.
