I once had a wisteria growing at my old house that was approx 150 yo and was able to keep it flowering for 9 months of the year with constant pruning and slow leak from tap where it grew. Unfortunately new owners cut it down, I was devastated. Love your work though, inspires me to bonsai everything native to Australia. Cheers J

Wow, you have a lots of collection, Whisteria is one of my favorite trees, this video reminded me tonight where beautiful Fuji Whisteria in Sera in Hiroshima, have you been there ? 世羅の藤 is famous in west Japan. I live in York but never seen nursery like yours. I want to go home next year when covic19 get better, I couldn’t go home this year, I wish I could walk your beautiful garden in my Kimono under the Whisteria flowers or cherry blossom. You made me smile Japanese Whisteria go clockwise, cause organized people you said, funny. I love that. Thank you very much for this video. We grow sweet satsuma oranges, lemon, many kinds of citrus where I come from. Grow water melon, figs, persimon, grapes, peach, plum, Ume, cherry, kiwi fruit, all sort can grow in Inland Seto area, 瀬戸内海。 I love old English old roses, Fox gloves, etc, love cottage garden too though. English garden is beautiful, too. Please take care of yourself and stay safe from virus. Xxx

Dear Mr. Chan, how pertinent that as you talked about ..."capturing the moment..." in this transient life, you took the most wonderful shot of life at your nursery ( at about 2:20) as your plants looked so very beautiful and in their element. Please do keep uploading videos of your tremendous gardens, grounds and nursery, it brings me such joy that is not so easily expressed in words. I look forward to every video. Thank you and Kindest regards.

I always look forward to your videos. I have started applying some of your methods to bringing out even more beauty in the shrubs trees and plants we have in our back garden. I've a long way to go but creating lovely detail in every part of the garden, I had no idea it was so therapeutic. I really do give you top ratings as for a number of years my wife was a keen gardener and I had no interest in gardening, just appreciating what she did. Now she is disabled at an early age and can't do the very thing she loves so I've learned to value doing the garden for her and the care that goes in to creating something beautiful. Between my carpentry skills and your excellent videos to help my gardening I hope to build a paradise we call home. Many many thanks for your generosity in kindly sharing your wisdom 😁😁😁🌱🥀🌺🌼🌴🍁☺️☺️☺️

Hi John, I can appreciate where you are coming from because my dear wife who passed away two years ago, was very fond of growing flowering plants, She used to work late into the summer evenings weeding and planting till it got dark. Gardening is very therapeutic , so keep at it and enjoy. It is like meditation

@Feathers147 5 жыл бұрын

Hi Peter, thank you for sharing your personal experience with me I am sad to hear about your wife. On reflection I have taken a leaf out of your wife's book of life and I am beginning to learn and understand that by the taking the time and effort really is a form of physical, emotional and mental meditation that in no way feels like work but rather a wonderful way to create beauty in the part of the world in which we live. I am learning to see in my minds eye the images and influences that I wish to build into our garden. I find the Google images of Japanese gardens are so beautiful and inspiring where everything is in complete harmony. This is the longterm goal I now have to follow paying attention to detail throughout all our of our garden. I am looking to include a pebble stream and bridge to add some Japanese styling amongst other ideas with a hope that I will one day have created a full harmonious garden for my wife, myself and family and friends to enjoy. Thank you again for your kind and generous work which you share on your KZfaq channel, all blessings to you, John Cohen. 😊😊😊

Thank you for the information about Wisteria and it's growth behaviors. It is a plant I have seen often over the years with beautiful drapes of the flowers. I recently read on another Wisteria informational site that Wisteria is toxic and because the smell is so wonderful people will occasionally eat the blossoms. Apparently children are most likely to do this. It doesn't kill but it can make some people quite ill. Is this information correct? I myself have only been inclined to enjoy its beauty and scent but never had the impulse to eat a blossom. Thank you for your response.

I bought a home 8 years ago with a beautiful wisteria tree in the front yard that had been very carefully managed for 50+ years by the previous owners. It’s about 8 feet tall with a trunk about 7 inches in diameter and strong branches that terminate into lovely pom-poms. My wife and I have not been able to maintain it to the same beauty we inherited and I’d love to learn more about the best practices for a wisteria like ours. Any tips appreciated.

Hi, Peter. Thank you for the tour. When training field grown material for bonsai, what mix of soil should be used? I live in Norway and it is very difficult and expensive to buy a lot of akadama and pumice. Is it acceptable to use a blend of peat soil and expanded clay aggregate? What alternatives can be used?

@peterchan3100 5 жыл бұрын

Just use your local soil for field growing. When you grow bonsai in pots experiment with different mixes. Can you get pumice in Norway? If so then that is good to mix in leafmold and bark - a third of each would be OK. I use to go to Norway between 1974 -1976 when I did work on North Sea Oil and gas. Still have happy memories of those days
