Today I'm pruning my Aloe (Gonialoe variegata) forest, my Jade (Crassula ovata) from Scott, two Natal Plums (Carissa macrocarpa) and a climbing Aloe (Aloiampelos ciliaris). Today's update is a quick look at the chickens and the ducks!

A climbing aloe. Super cool!!! Pruning highlights the trunk very well.

Cool pot! You can make anything into a bonsai, Nigel. You have the skill that most experts would not attempt.

Thanks for pointing out the cold damage on your natal plumbs! This helped me identify problems I'm having with my coffee plants, they're directly next to a window but I guess ventilating during the winter is enough for them to take damage.

Hi Nigel, I found a new succulent called Bear Paw ( cotyledon tomentosa). You should get that for your collection.

Coffee is a great hand warm in the cup. N.P. looks nice. I like the trunks on them. Pruning them has them ready for spring. What about a dry stream bed through the middle of them to separate them as a forest setting? Just a thought.

Boy, some major changes to all of the trees you featured today. I hope you have recovered from the cold shoulder the chickens and ducks gave you! We on this side of the camera still love you!

Woo hoo!!! Thanx for the birdie update!!! Also, I couldn't imagine using an expensive pot as a candy bowl. Lol. But when it's my $, I suppose I can do what I want.

Salve Nigel, Ti seguo sempre. Imparo un sacco dai Tuoi video così didattici. Il Tuo cameraman è proprio super e Tu molto competente e simpaticissimo.

It's a strange coincidence I guess, but every time you've had snow in Canada it has snowed here in north east Scotland! Right now we've got more snow than we've had for a couple of years! Looking forward to the spring here, we've recently moved to a new house with a big garden and I can't wait to start my bonsai collection 😊

Nice prune ups! You are a giant to those feathery friends... Don't they know you are the friendly giant?! LOL The flock looks great! Cold spell up where I am as well... Should end Sunday ish... Been using the wood stove to keep the trees around -5 to 0C... It does drop at night if I don't peel my carcass out from under the covers early to stoke it back up... Haha!

Hi Nigel, love the channel! I was wondering how your Fukien Tea was doing and what you do for it's care? Mine slowly limps along through winter here in the Vancouver area

Thank you for all your great videos. I'm curious as to why you cover some of your plants with plastic in the winter. In this video, you covered your aloe forest with plastic. I would think that would make its environment too humid, especially since aloe is a succulent. Could you please explain the reasoning why you do this and the benefits of it (particularly with succulents) in the winter. Thanks.

@TheBonsaiZone 5 ай бұрын

The plastic cover is to protect the trees when I bring them from the indoor plant room to the outdoor greenhouse, it's well below freezing outside!

Thank you. Makes sense!

Is it OK to prune your jade in the winter? I have one that I'm making into a bonsai. They live inside under lights in the winter and live outside in the summer. I dont want to prune at the wrong time.
