Herons bonsai again 🌳🤙

Moisture retention is heaven for fungus gnats. 🪰Nightmare!

Great content as usual. Anyone who can advise on a Bonsai club in London ?

Dear, I have bought "wonder cat" cat litter to use it in my mix for bonsai soil. I discovered that it has a smell of lavander. can I use it or it will heart the roots

Bonsai Potato…I have not heard of that whimsical item before. Might be something fun to do with the kiddos! I’m diggin the sumo design you have going here. You’ve done an amazing job with it, brother.

Was it complete with Akadama and pumice 😃🌲

Maples put out some stunning colours

I really like this tree it’s so unique and once the top grows more it’s going to only loook better

Not one for me i'm afraid but your plan for it's development is sound.

Sorry I've been so out of the community. Working on a few passion projects thank you all. Great video jason

Best overall Bonsai video I’ve seen, without going too in-depth. Thank you so much 😊

Love your wire rack.

hahaha I love the way you present your videos!... 😂. That´s a beautiful robust tree, and it improves a lot with the trimming and wiring 👍

Excellent video. Really gets to the heart of the subject. Best I've seen, and gives me the confidence to prepare my own substrate. Thank you

Great vid! A few ideas learned!

Do birds steal your fish ? Is it the purpose of the mesh ? 😂

Day of the Privet = Classic stuff!! Laughed out loud (a lot) when you mentioned you bought one😆😆. I quite like your vision for the tree. Will have great movement and, of course, taper once it develops. 'Potato' may sound more romantic in Japanese (if you like romantic tubers, that is). Will be lots of fun to follow the progression for sure!

Too late to do that now in the uk? Would you still have enough time for a second flush and harden ?

I have this tree as well. It is growing very fast in large pot. New shoot is about 7 cm long in 3 weeks. I also defoliated it to see structure well and very dense foliage got back in 3 weeks. I hope i will find the wires.

Mate the Irish would love it, great name.

Great video thank you.

What type of soil you use for bonsais?

i also recently acquired a mature privet bonsai. i love the lumpy look of the trunk. the chunky trunky is something i try and get out of a few of my trees (im working on an oak similarly). i think it looks really interesting. love this

Nicely styled Jason.

Does @XaviersBonsaiRetreat know you are hiding a secret privet? 😂

I think your bonsai potato is off to a great start. I see potential there.

Super little tree and great idea to bring the canopy back over the top to even out the shape and look.

BTW, this may be out of the topic but, would you mind sharing how you made your bonsai stands? :) ... thanks in advance! :)

Thanks for all these notes shared!. I really appreciated!, I´m learning a lot.

Good stuff, keep going 👍🏻

Great video, Jason, thanks. As a Spanish bonsai enthusiast myself, maples are a tricky genre in our hot & dry weather, but I keep trying! BTW, I just love the pot of the twisted Deshojo, do you know the author? Cheers!

Too lovely to watch only once 🤩👍🙋‍♀️

Beautiful 🥰 I really enjoyed to watch your amazing collection, all the more since some of my JM suffered from leaf scorch this year. Followed your advice to leaf prune and awaiting hopefully new shot out soon. 😄🙏 Thanks for sharing Jason 😘🙋‍♀️ Cheers Martina

i think it's the best ingredient for potting mixes, and should be the main ingredient by volume. choose correct size for application.

👍👌🙂

Nicely produced Jason

I just finished reading your book Haiku Dreams. I really enjoyed it.

Great video as always jason hope you are enjoying your summer

I need a deshojo

Very nice video. There is an excellent reason for folks to try the smaller bonsai. I have gotten to the point with my age and back problems that I cannot adequately take care of my larger trees. I hate the idea of giving up my big trees so I will continue working with them for a few more years. I wish I had sons or daughters who would keep them going. My oldest tree is 65 years old.

Amazing how lovely these colour changes can be. The variations seem endless between cultivars. I wonder why we find the autumnal pigment changes so beautiful despite being harbingers of winter cold. Great vid!

Great video Jason. I miss the spring colours as everything becomes green in summer but it's always a treat when autumn rolls around. Very interesting as usual

Rain might be a pain, sometimes. In Austria, with heavy rain we also often expect heavy winds and storm. I like to secure my trees with big stones on the top of the soil. Cheers 🙋‍♀️

This made me chuckle...

„About a year ago“????

Very informative, I learned quite a bit from it. I'm now into my second year and I am very glad to have learned these little tricks. Although I am not traditional and I have no interest in following any specific rules, I truly enjoy the time I spend with my trees and the methods you use are very intelligent. I find not being confined by guidelines I am free to enjoy without disappointment. For me it is much more therapeutic this way. Thank you very much for your video

I love this video and honestly I hope I can grown mine just as good as you did. I can’t wait! Thank you for your videos
