What a treat to watch. I had a smile on my face the whole time. Just lovely.

Thanks all. I found one of these dying behind another bush (no light) in my garden, so dug it up, potted it for a couple of years to let it recover, and this spring it started its life as a bonsai, so this demo was very welcome.

Who wouldn't want a tree make over by Peter for a birthday present 🎁. What a lucky man 😂. Thx for sharing Peter 👏

I live in Florida in the United States I have just realized that every morning around 3 I always watch your new video for the day not knowing it until now this has become my favorite Channel I always look to see what you have done new thank you Peter I have enjoyed everything I've seen on your Channel

As a fellow Matthew, thankyou for this early birthday present.

What a happy group of people!

hi Peter... today I was pruning my lovely ficus and was hesitating to do what was possible.... Your voice came to mind and said "bite the bullet" ... I listened , and bit the bullet.. wouldnt have done it without you.. it makes all the difference that I wouldnt have realized without you. thank you! Brooklyn NY.

Well that sure beats the pair of socks I got for MY birthday. Thanks, keep growing

This is one of the most wholesome videos I've seen in a long time 😊

I've been following Peter for quite some time now ! Your videos are simply awesome ! Sharing all that knowledge is very generous from you ! And your generosity transpires in that moment, spending some amazing time with people who came for you for quite far for important milestones in their life, it's simply amazing ! And on a more personal note, I have some health issues, and somehow, I relate a lot to some of those trees showing their fight for living in a tiny pot with some scars are quite a close metaphor of my life ! Seeing them still thrive is a sign of hope and it somehow helps me a bit ! Thanks for everything Peter, and thanks as well for your team ! They also seem very involved in the KZfaq journey, and they deserve also the credit for it, and for how the nursery looks like ! Cheers guys !

Always beautiful to see a master sharing knowledge with everyone

Happy birthday, lovely friends! I love this community so much. :)

You are so amazing Mr.Peter !How you’ve blessed many people over the years with your artistry in Bonsai. Blessings from across the pound.

The tree looks really nice with a haircut and a beautiful new pot.

Thank you for another inspiring styling lesson. Matt you have such a beautiful Berberis now☺

a good time was had by all and a lesson in design. Berberis is such a pest in many US forests, maybe I will dig one up and try it as bonsai subject.

Once again Peter very thoughtful and kind to use your gift to bring a mini classes and give this Bonsai love great joy!

I'd also like an audience to triumphantly vocalize whenever I make big cuts on my trees. 😂

I keep coming back to this video. I think this has to be one of my favorite redesigns.

i adore him soo much ...i am 16 and u r the one that got me into bonsai...love from india

Because I love your bonsai sir

Lot of laughing going on in the green house. You think there is coffee in those cups?...Lol! Happy Birthday Matthew!

Just wonderful. The vision revealed. And Happy Birthday!

As usual, a stellar job by Peter Chan. 👏🏻

It is my birthday on Sunday and what a wonderful present that would be I can't think of anything better 💚

Sir Peter, you such a master! Snip, snip and another beautiful creation. Thank you!

Ahh thanks for such a treat on what was otherwise a bit of an up and down birthday! Happy Matt. See you very soon!

What a great gift. Hope Matthew enjoys it.

I thought Mathew was giving thumbs up for a minute straight. Haha. He’s holding a cup of tea.

Thank you Peter. Nice work.

lovely demo

looks great!

What a lovely transformation

wow a true master at work

It was a lovely special day thank you Peter

Appreciate this great lesson on the Berberis.

Awesome job, thanks for sharing your knowledge and passion with us!✌️😎

Great ! Nice birthday present 🌳 greetings

Great stuff Peter. Your videos are good for the soul. Thanks again. 👍

This video was especially enjoyable. What a beautiful little specimen. It's so easy to tell you had a blast working on it.

Watching the beauty of the tree ( and pot ) emerge is so satisfying and so enjoyable ! *= )*

Love your videos... So very inspirational.. Keep up the great work

I've a number of barberry bushes in my yard that give me little starts to play with. Thanks for the styling info.

impressive, thanks for sharing your knowledge

Great videos is a honor to watch someone like you working on a bonsai

Very inspiring

What a great birthday idea.

what a beauty to watch. merci mucho

Excellent tutorial!!!

Great bday present. Dont know this species will have to look it up some more.Love how it turned out and the root cutting part. Seeing the roots cut like that gives me loads more confidence. Thank you for sharing

Muy bien y lo que fue el cambio de posición la nueva mazeta y la poda. .todo un maestro digno de imitar.

Amazing! I've wired some small offsprings of berberis, this video showed me what i can look forward to!

Very good!

That was a great present from his friends! I would have liked to see the whole repotting but now I’m getting your artistic eye so I’m happy to develop that with every video I watch, thank you Peter! 🙏🏽🙋🏻‍♀️👍🏽Mia

i don't even own a bonsai but i just love this dude

Such a wonderful video. I'm within a week or two of going through the same process. One with garden material and one with a 20 year old tree. I love your one line: most people ... they are very greedy and want to use as much as possible.

Hi KZfaqrs! Happy birthday 🎉

Great!

You are amazing. Wish I could meet you in person.

A lovely cheerfull group of people. i have had 4 burberris over the years and each one died so i dont try them any more. that one looked terifik...

actually impressive to see his process, i would always be scared to make any bold cuts but he's so confident

6:57 even I felt that hurt a little 😅

Moin! Thank you Peter Chan and the "Birthdayparty troup", what a nice Birthday!! from my opinion, Berberis is a very god tree to beginn with. They produce so many Trunks and Branches during the season that you have to be careful be on top of it 🙂 They easily look old and narled. Thank you for sharing this "event" with us!!

Much better.

🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 thanks Peter

Hello, when you say that february is the best month to do transplants, are you referring especially to berberis or also to other species? Thank you very much for sharing your interesting videos.

Gee Peter, I have about 20 trees that could use your expert advice.. may I bring them about?....😆 Great work.

🌳👍

🔥💕👍

Peter just wants to cut.lol

he said on my 40th birthday!

I'm really wondering how to get into bonsai could you help

Lol I wonder if tha tree lived ^.^

Love From BHARAT 🔥🙏

Sorry my Texas accent but, Y'all are having too much fun!

Wouldn't a round pot suit all fronts?

My birthday wish is to bring my ugliest or most difficult tree to Peter so he can help me like he did in this video.

4 clones? All dressed the same and that, is a total accident! 🤣

👍👌👌🍎

that is nice, but in my humble opinion one more branch needs to come off :)

Peter and fans at it again. Peter you are the best BONSAI master.Ernie smith from brisbane Australia

Time see know happy memories very much middle aged wow turns they on the world netflix 😂🥰

IMO the primary branches were left way too long and this tree needs a significantly stronger cutback. The profile of this tree when it's properly ramified will be way too large for the size of the tree and the aesthetics of the tree wouldn't be optimized
