Thanks for your support! For the entire Bonsai-U backlog or to donate, please visit bjornbjorholm.com/bonsai-u/

one of the best videos I have seen on Bonsai yet! Now I'm eagerly waiting for part 2!!!

Great demo at 72 it’s great to see how my trees can be improved

Thanks for doing videos on smaller trees! Enjoying the Bonsai-U format, please keep it up!

I would devour 10 more of these videos in one sitting

Love it Bjorn. So relieved to see the attitude of not being overly worried of style off the get go. Something I do too often. Very big help.

Thanks Bjorn! I have followed your classes on bonsai empire but the Bonsai U videos seem less stiff and thus much easier to follow and learn from. Thanks for making this available at no cost to us the viewers, but even if you were to charge, I would gladly sign up.

Yes new video! Love your work- very talented bonsai master.

thanks for sharing man, so professional and very well performed

So easy like that,...!!! Can I ask you something: Could you use another color of background jacket, to be able yo apreciate the work?. Again, thank you..!!!!

Many thanks Bjorn for an excellent video; you are a very talented instructor.

For someone who is doing bonsai and bonsai vlog here in the Philippines, It is always an inspiration watching your video, as you generously explain the details of what you do. Your mastery of the material that you are using is very impressive explaining things like the origin of the materials even the plants growth as the season change, what to avoid so the material wont stop growing. But what i find most impressive is the hope you put to the growth of your tree and what it would look like in the years to come after wiring them. "Not making an S shape but odd contorted movement" I wish to have my very own shimpaku and train them with your videos as guide,.. Hope you will be in the country by 2021, it would be nice to see you in person and watch you work on a bonsai tree.

Thanks Bjorn....very informative.

Really looking forward to meet you. ASPAC 2021.

Thank you for this video Bjorn. This is the stage of bonsai in which I reside. ... as it is very hard to find anything but stock like this from local greenhouses in Alberta. And our Winter is a KILLER! ha ha...

hi i want to thank you for all your advices, I learned a lot here from Brazil. Keep up with the good work.

Well done! Beautiful finish, the form you went with is lovely.

Selalu riang melihat videomu Bjorn. Thanks!!

Thank you very much for making this video! The growing season is coming, I hope you have a good one! Bonsai4life!

nice one. I have a small needle juniper from seed which I kinda bent in a similar fashion last year, and I wasn't really sure how to progress it until now! thanks a lot. love your videos and explanations.

thank you for the course

Great video!! Thank you.

So, was listening to a podcast the other day and well, you said you were the only one basically caring for your garden and all that. If you ever want your 1st apprentice, im definitly not far away. (In a way im joking lol but also, it will likely never happen lol but would be the greatest opportunity for me ever!...especially being so close!) Spring is coming up fast here in TN and me and my son are going to join the NBS this year finally. He loves bonsai already and I love that. Loved the video btw and it wasnt even till about a year ago that I was interested in junipers and even pines. For the longest, in my opinion, they were soooo over used in the bonsai world and just seen to many that always looked the same in ways. Honestly ive been a part of Mirai Live (with Ryan Niel) for close to 1.5yrs and in that time I found myself being really drawn to pines especially and in the past few months, junipers. Videos like this, although ive seen this b4 lol, are great for someone in my position as ill probably never have access to great material but can make my own essentially. Looking forward to seeing part 2 and all the other videos. My son says hello and again is saying when we come visit the garden (in due time) he has to see that juniper...the RMJ behind you. He loves that one which is odd cuz he normally gravitates towards the winter silhouette of deciduous. Anyway thanks for your time reading this. Ill be glad when all the rain is over here!

First time finding your channel and you seem very informative, thanks for the content

Great demo

Shohin YES!

Brilliant vídeo😎

Thank you so much for making these videos! You are so generous for sharing this information for free. I hope to own and care for my own bonsai some day (hopefully from Eisei-en😃). And these videos will be instrumental in giving me the confidence to do it. They are some of the most thorough and informative on KZfaq! Best of luck with everything you are doing✌

thanks very much! brilliant foliage & design info; brilliant work . . . Peace

I am hopeful to meet you when you come to Atlanta this year! Your videos are really great and your knowledge of bonsai is impressive

greatvid

Azaleas cuttings and Ume cuttings too please ✨✨ And why not cuttings of Chaenomeles/Quince, Pomegranate, Seiju Chinese Elm, Acer Palmatum/J-Maples too please :D

Awesome

nice tutorial.

Bjorn, in the video you added single wires to each trunk but, I notice that after you wired the branches and came back, the trunk was double wired, at least at the base. Did you double-wire the entire trunk and main branch? It would have been nice to see that also.

Awesome Video Bjorn! I actually have about 20 Itoigawa cuttings myself that I was planning on doing this exact technique on but could never find an article or video on how to do it properly, so thanks a ton! I just recently wired some 2-3 year old broad-leaf evergreens and some deciduous trees for my own bonsai channel you can find those videos by searching “Seedling Wiring Workshop”!

You've mentioned air pots and net pots in your video. Would you share more on them as well as on the development of bonsai material in general? Thanks.

love it!

Nice video, but my old eyes have a hard time seeing your work with the camouflage shirt.

Great information. Please wear white or light colours so that we can see the plant you're holding.

i want to try the airpot do we just put the collander on the bench or do we let roots feed into the ground eventually?

I just got a 2 needles pine from a local owner, it was used as a xmas tree. It is pot bound 10 ft tall. Can I prune it this time of the year just to get that taper look on it's base? I am located in california

do i understand correctly that you leave the wire on there for about two years? any issues with wire scars?

👍👌

Thanks for this & all your incredibly helpful Bonsai videos!! I did my first attempt at wiring last winter on a Juniper (Nana I think) & killed a couple of the main branches. The wire cut into them a fair bit & I thought I must have twisted & bent them too much, causing the wire to tighten. Seeing you go to work on this Shimpaku has me scratching my head about what I did wrong - any thoughts? 🤔

Do you sell cuttings of the bigger one? I was just talking about this type a week ago and I'm interested in get one to plant in the ground.

How prune the root of juniper

Great work, i rly love your work cause u'r my favorite bonsai master but.. you speak so fast!! can you considerate to make ITvideos version in spanish with Rafa or another mate?? Thanks you for your work and for help to start in this art to the new generation!

Question I live in Philadelphia and during the winters which can be very cold. How do you recommend I store my bonsai's in the winter. No shed or colds rooms. Just a yard, I had a shimpaku and I thought if I planted the pot in a larger pot it would survive but nope. can you give me some tips or advice on keeping my plants alive during the winter.

Where does the silver driftwood/aged wood come from and how does it get wired into bonsai? (Or even the other colours of wood?)

Where in the US could I get itoigawa shimpaku? Ive been looking how to import but I cant find anything on that either.

Could you do a vid like this with scots pines please? If you're looking for suggestions :)

Bro, guess what happens if you have a bush in front of you while wearing camouflage...

"definitely do not pinch the foliage on a juniper". you should have mentioned this before I killed mine.

Just a few minutes ago I was asking where you were based having now looked at several of your videos I realised you are based in the USA their good fortune and UK's Loss, we can't win them all at least we got away from Europe's clutches.

subtitles????!!!!!

Newbe here. I've been watching video's on mame bonsia. Not a category?
