I just cut back the ends on some of my trees here and it was just this easy! Thank you for teaching us so well! I simply love the thick maple bonsai trees, they are my favorite. I've not had much success with them here in the Dallas/Fort Worth area of Texas.

Hi Peter, I have moved to a flat in London with a small garden and I have bought my first Japanese maple. Bloodgood. Probably the last as I don’t have much space. I have come across your videos and now I’m worried that I will not manage my tree 😨. At the moment it’s about 30 in tall and has one bigger side branch and one small one. Can I grow it in the pot? Where do you buy best pots for maple trees? I would like to grow it perhaps up to 4 -6 ft tall . I love watching your videos but you are so fast cannot keep it up. Terminology and the skill all new to me 😬. Best Wishes Dorota.

Disease is mostly caused by environment - seldom due to the genes of the plant. Some maples though are inherently weak like many of the small leaf varieties - Kiyohime - Kotohime and so on.

In foraging we refer to young leaves as tender and mature leaves as course. Perhaps you can better explain hard and soft leaves with these term. Young spinach leaves are tender when eaten. Older spinach is more course or sinewy. I believe most people may understand it when explained like this.

I was under the impression, that candle cutting was to be done around June, after the candle has grown out? (opened up?) I have only one Pine in my collection, a VERY young Black pine. It's only about 16" tall, and the candles have opened, and I was going to wait until about the first week of June to cut them back, trying to decide what to keep and what not to keep, in the development of this young tree.

@yoteslaya7296 2 жыл бұрын

ryan neil talks about black pines have a 2 cycle growth during summer. So even if you prune the initial candle, later in the season another one will grow so its probably best to just let the tree complete the first candle and stop a second growth
