Holy cow! I can’t believe you got that much growth in a period of 10 years. That is a spectacular tree.

@wendyanndarling 3 жыл бұрын

My heart almost stood still with nearly everything you did to that tree:D This is such a different approach to treating plant in comparision to tropical plants like I collect.

The new angle makes so much difference I'm in the early stages of growing my mini jade and alot of the jade videos are not in English so I just have to learn by watching. So thanks for this help and information. Keep up the good work 👍

You really got me with cutting the wrong branch at first haha. You really pulled off the “getting a haircut in the middle of the video” and didn’t think we would notice.

@davec3651 2 жыл бұрын

He forgot to say that if you get a haircut during the process, the plant doesn't get depressed about being trimmed up.

Very nice tree. The Jade is a perfect subject for those of us that got into bonsai when we were too old to wait 30 years to get the results we're after. :0)

Very good information, explanations, and visuals in what you accomplished in this video. I’m sort of new to dwarf Jade. I did not think of total defoliation before your video. I’m in the Pacific NW, so weather/zone much different than FL (where we lived way back when). So very likely an indoor spot. Thank you. 😃
