Lovely transformations. Always good to see progress on trees after allowing them to grow un-disturbed over a season or two.

@TerryErasmusbonsai 8 ай бұрын

So true Hassim. It is unfortunately all too common that enthusiasts keep their trees neatly trimmed at all times to the detriment of the trees health.

Excellent video. The final shot of the trident at the end blew me away.

Glad you liked it Luke, I love that trident too. It has really come a long way since I began working on it a couple years ago.

So, no bathroom breaks, no meals, no talking, just clip and go! Heck of a day 😉 Always educational and entertaining, good sir.

Sorry man, I just assumed my multiple mugs of tea and subsequent bathroom breaks would not make for good viewing material so I edited it out. Next time I’ll keep it in though ok 😉

Hello Terry. The Ficus Bonsai is it an Informal Upright Style or a Slant Style? Thank you.

@TerryErasmusbonsai 4 ай бұрын

No, it’s a good question Jerez. I guess for the moment I am not sure. I will have to see when it’s a little more mature what style it fits and I want to exhibit it when this becomes a requirement.
