I really liked this. So many videos on KZfaq are of this huge raw material that's really rare for the average person to get an example of, or wiring an already established tree. I like this short video showing real day-to-day observations and tasks in a nursery! More please!

Nice little project you have going for yourself Jason.

Thanks much, Jason. Always love your tutorials.

Thanks Jason, needed to see that. Had pruned back a juniper a fortnight ago, needed to be shown that patience pays off 🙏

Nice love your videos and buying from your bonsai store

This was perfect for me. Thanks!

Good Info Old Man👋

I have one that just came up in one of my pots. Just letting it grow because it is only about a year old, in growth.

Thanks for this great video! Sometimes there is discouragement with the bad position of breaches and mistakes. this brings more positive thoughts. 👌🙏

im beginner. You are good teacher.

Can you make a video on how to train a low-growing/octopus-like small juniper sapling into a big 4’-10’ tall upright Niwaki juniper? I know they are naturally low growing.. but I see some very tall (4’-10’) upright Niwaki junipers at my local bonsai/niwaki nursery (very nicely cloud pruned and shaped). My goal is to grow my many San Jose cuttings into tall Niwaki. 😊

Hi, I'm new to growing bonsai trees and I was wondering if it is normal for the leaves to be brown on the bottom but green on top is this normal or does it mean they are dying?

I accidentally did remove most of the foliage on my juniper. Am I at a loss here?

Helpful.. I’m so trying to rehab some neglected (my fault 😔- shame on me, I disregarded a ficus I “rescued” from a neighbor who abandoned it,, then I went AWOL during my shoulder/spine issues.. ) as well as a beautiful Coastal Rosemary I’ve nurtured since a seedling - now it’s 4’x4’ of tangled main branches and “legginess”.. I SO want to treat them better and they both have tremendous potential.. at I think they do.. for BONSAI... I’m just overwhelmed on “where to start”! I started cleaning them both up.. they both sort of look like “The Dude” in “The Big Lebowski”- sans the perpetual White Russian!

Hello Jason, I wonder how old are your Juniper materials before you transfer them into bonsai pots. Usually, how many years should you wait and care for the trunk to become 2-3 inches thick? Did they come from thick branch cuttings?

I have a juniper bonsai and I have 2 main branches but then on those branches I have green twig like Branches with spikes. Will those turn into branches also??

Will blue star bud back that way too?

Is it ok to cut back a branch of juniper without a buds? And expect it to grow a new buds on that branch?

Wow 😱 Lots of junifer ..l😍😍 can I have 1 of them ✌️✌️✌️

do you also do deciduous trees. if so i would like to see those too.

Hi Jason, when did you made thet cut?

What's the secret :)? Usually the stumps without leaves die off, because the live vean no longer supports the foliage.

Where is your nursery?

Juniper are mew to me. I do not know much about them and how to style them. Are there any books that you recommend to help me further my knowledge of this species?

so much for junipers being unable to bud back

@EasternLeaf hey I won the earth day giveaway and I Messaged you my address but I got no response. Maybe you did not get them? I won a 2 inch one. If you got them I’m sorry.

Love all your work. But, at the risk of being impertinent let me suggest something. The video is too frenetic, especially in light of Leaf's "Eastern approach." Even for me - someone trying to slow down, it's distracting. The camera moves back and forth too much, and you fling the tree around too much for dimwitted viewers like me to easily follow. Again, I'm a huge fan, and only want you to comfortably show your talents and activities.
