Everytime when this tree gets a maintenance work done, at end it looks too good. Very similarto the tree pics you shown in part1. One of my favorite trees this is, from your bonsai garden

Master pruning job, wow. Tree never looked better.

What I enjoy most about your videos is the thought and precision you apply to each move, each choice, and each cut. You explain every step of the way and that is so helpful in understanding how to get the best result from your effort. I know where to go when I get frustrated with a project...it's to your channel to see if you've done anything like what I'm working on. Most often I learn to be more calm, more patient, and more thoughtful. You've helped me more than a shrink.

I've followed the development of this Serissa over the years on KZfaq and it have became a wonderful, naturalistic looking bonsai! Good work Nigel!

Liked the outcome, so nicely done.. the zebra adds that perfect touch too

Wow, it's really different after in 21 days, amazing!!

I like the pads. It's crazy you have been developing them since 2016. Oh how the years go by. Even though it might look a bit bare now, in a few weeks it will look amazing. Last year it looked so good after the refinement. The dappled light through the canopy onto the trunk made the tree look so old and mature. Before the dome was too thick with branches and leaves that it shaded the trunk too much. Can't wait to see the tree again when it starts to fill up with leaves.

it looks like a old tree now, I'm observing its progress from since 2015, It's always attractive, Your landscape experiment with it was also so beautiful. Waiting for the new look in new customized pot.

This is my favorite in your collection, excellent work

Two very entertaining videos of the maintenance of a really beautiful serissa. Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Spain and until the next video👍😄

I love how this turned out , I think it's one of my favourite trees!

That tree is gorgeous! It definitely looks like a miniature version of the Acacia!

Very much like an acacia 👌

Amazing job with a fantastic little tree🤩🤩🤩

Certainly is looking good. I like the style of this tree.

I love this tree. I styled an ogre ear succulent based on this design. It worked really well. Personally, I wouldn't make this tree bigger. I think it's a perfect size now.

A great prune/shaping for the tree. Informative and helps me in doing ours. 👍

Looks brilliant! Looking forward to it maturing from here!

21:54 looks like the tree is flipping us the bird 😂

That's a great idea for the tags. Very nice of Tom!

Love hearing your stepwise approach and your thought process. I hope some day my trees are at this point in the refinement process! Can’t wait to see the follow up on this one!

I love this tree Nigel! One of my favorites for sure! Lisa

This pruning and shaping is inspirational (to me anyway lol)... I've always gone for a brush-style with my Serissa trees... and I now realise that I'm lazy and stuck in a habit... but you have freed me from that now! I love what you did here, and the Acacia look of it... brilliant... thank you for sharing this and inspiring a lazy git like me! 😁👍

Simply an impressive work, Nigel!

Love this tree

👌👌👌 Looks so beautiful...!!!

You had less than 10k followers when I first found you, and this tree is my favourite of yours! It’s an amazing progression!

It’s a Twofor day in The Bonsai Zone 😁

Beautiful Serissa bonsai after prune 👍👍😍

Looking good great work

For me one of your most beautiful bonsai. Well done.

I love this tree. I have a Serissa that I hope to turn into something like this. Very early for mine.

Always amazed, enjoy this always, thanks

Great job on the tree mate. Just goes to show clip and grow is a great natural way to develop a tree 😀😀

Enjoyed your video for today. That Serissa is sure looking GREAT! I was waiting for you to put a giraffe statue beneath the canopy. Can't wait to see the new pot that you have made for it.

Nigel, it looks amazing. The tree looks older and more mature. I agree that it was a good choice!

Thanks, Nigel!

Great teaching, as always, in the Zone.

Amazing....i love that

Its looking great after all that pruning n cleaning work

Nigel that little Serissa looks amazing!! I would love to own it.

Wow nice bonsa

It really looks like it came out of an African landscape. I think a miniature giraffe would look good under it.

Dude. Your hair cut matches the Serissa.

Looks good. I think you will need 10% larger pot considering the thickness of trunk, also in video left side of tree branch is more thicker compare to right side, so in future you may try to go for more thicker pad on that side proportionate to branch sizes.

I really loved this tree before this work but I can see where you are going with this in the future.

I bought the exact plant marker few weeks ago. I wrote the year of propagation and name of the trees. It's fun, Nigel. 🤗 By the way that tree is looking more awesome!

Almost foist!

Hello Nigel, great video as always! Love to see the progress of your trees, I've learned a lot from you! I'd like to ask a question about repotting an older bougainvillea, I can't really find information about it, and I know you have an amazing bougainvillea, so I'd like to ask it here if you don't mind :) I hard pruned the trunk back to about the 1/3rd of the original size (now it's ~40cm tall) around the end of April and the tree has grown in pretty well. Because this tree was kept large, I'd like to first put it into a deeper rootmaker pot that's around half the size of the current one, and then transition to a bonsai pot later. The plan is to get a wider and a bit shallower pot than the new one later, but this is the biggest rootmaker I could find here. The question is, is it safe to repot the tree now in end of June (temperature is well above 15C at night and above 30C in the daytime - Hungary), and is it safe to do so into a pot that about half the size of the current one? I'll leave a picture here with the tree and the new pot: imgur.com/a/9RAiBUx Thank you in advance! David

As Merv used to say ...Radical.....

Elegant

Thanks.

maybe try to use smaller pot it will look better i guess .youre doin awesome job keep it up

Nice pads.

You know how people look like there dogs Well you look like your bonsai :)

I would love to send you seeds of trees native to Bharat(India) but the shipping charges are wayy too high! I am still a student so can't tell my parents to pay for it. In the future I will definitely pay you a visit and get you a lot of seeds of trees.

Could you put a cloth under the tree to catch the cuttings?

😀

Shape of the tree reminds me of Serengeti.

How often should i prune my finished tree to maintain it

Hi Nigel, do you feel the tree needs more taper on the trunk to follow the rules of bonsai?

Why instead of cutting lower branches you use wire to keep them up? i know you are usted to clip and grow method but wire is something you could use in theese cases.

Foist

Nigel, do you think it is possible to encourage aerial roots in a ficus microcarpa by placing a tray of water (that the roots cant reach) below the tree? The evaporation would increase humidity around the tree. I would like to see some aerial roots but don't want to risk my tree overheating in a greenhouse. It got up to 37°c last week and I can imagine that the temperature inside the oven is sufficient to reliably cook eggs.

Will grow back in 17 1/2 days 🧐

ohhhh sooo nice nigel also i wanna ask how old are you hehe tnxx😅😅

You need to publish a book 📚.
