Hi Andrew, I’m in zone 9B in Northern California, I got leaf scorch the past few weeks because the prolonged heat on my Japanese Maples so I’ll try the overhead watering you describe, thanks and keep up the good work👍🏻

Hey Andrew, same timeline window for collecting air layers right?

There's a wisteria tree in the backyard here in Connecticut that is intertwined with the fence. Last time I looked at it, it had seedpods. I've never seen one as a potted plant before since I mostly focus on orchid growing. I wonder how often something like this has to be repotted.

Thank you. Very useful information.

TLC wants to release a new song with you no stubs

lovin the channel andrew.. what time of year do you treat big wounds? how many times a year do you reactivate the wound? thanks

Crisp, relevant information 👍🏻

Would you use the same procedure on a trumpet vine. I have a flat of scraggly 3 year old vines that need to be tightened up.

Great information. When would be the latest time in the growing season to apply this technique?

What a cool tree, thanks, a really good video!!

love the channel, great video

Hi Andrew - how are you fixing them into the ground? Are they cemented? How deep do you go for having a stable pedestal? Thanks for sharing some insights. Greetings from Switzerland !

Clever design and i like the rusty effect.

Thanks for the video. Never knew this about final pruning 8ish weeks out before leaf drop. Thanks a lot!

How long did it take to get that thick?

I would love to have own display like yours one day, for now I just use my trusty milk crates and steel mesh

Excellent Thanks!

Any thoughts on drainage and rust mitigation?

oh yes. secret of shaolin poles

Awesome advice! Thank you.

I appreciate you representing deciduous bonsai. I live in colorado and my entire bonsai collection has been from native nursery stock gathered over the years.

Belo exemplar ❤

Hi Andrew..wander if you can help me..I was watching u do a seminar on golden state bonsai and you said u fed using biogold through liquid feed..what is the ratio per gram of fertilizer u use to make up the feed...really enjoying the content and ur way of teaching us easy in the ears😂👍

Hey Andrew, when should we reactivate wounds? I've noticed my cut putty has "cracked" on cuts made in spring, indicating that i've got some nice healing going on. Is this the time to reactivate the wounds, or should i wait till spring again?

Great video Andrew! Can't wait to see what awards this tree will win in a couple years.

Amazing in just 5 years. I do agree that sumo trees, with short branches and triangle canopy looks unnatural.

Thanks Andrew, great video and tree! Would you ever consider making a multi branch apex on the tree, spreading the crown a little wider, going even more on the natural style?!!

Great video, thank you, how often and when should you reactivate the wound?

Excellent Andrew, I may be coming from the uk 🙏🏽 just trying to get the ball rolling

Very nice tree and information! Can't wait to get my own trident.

Great video, and nice little guest star popping in there.

great tree, excellent work

What percentage shade net are you using for the summer to protect your trees?

Thanks for that information Andrew...can you please spell the cut paste in English please?

Very informative. Did not fully know all your points on wound healing on deciduous trees. Thanks.

How/where do you buy a chunky maple? Do you just have to be “in it”

Excellent video and information Andrew, thank you. Have you ever used the self adhesive aluminium foil for healing wounds?

looks great. I've noticed the callus on my kotohime chops doesn't stop moving through the growing season.

What a hilarious and informative video, love it! 😂😂

Amazing video !! Quick question, at 1:16 why are these branches defoliated in this manner ? (leaving only the tips) . Im really curious :)

I'm so glad to see you back! Thanks for the new video!

Trips me out that you can get some ramification out of these birch trees, like this.

GREAT video! I love the shot of the two styles together in your studio. Such contrast in style yet so similar in texture, species, etc. Great way to show the potential, even from the same species of tree.

Thanks.

Great topic for discussion on our deciduous bonsai pruning! Here on the VA coast, I push it to 2nd or 3rd week of August with great success. We have a longer seasons, and ready to bonsai-shuffle to the greenhouse for any unexpected cold snaps.😅

And that’s why we follow you, we listen to you and we enjoy to learn from you :) I feel safe applying deciduous techniques coming from you knowledge and experience. Thanks Andrew 🎉

Yeah, I don’t touch the potted birch after mid-July up here in Alaska. Even then, whatever grows from here out will most likely die back over winter. But it sure helps to rebalance the vigor. I’m really diggin your content, good sir.

Love this channel. I’d really like to see more long-form content on deciduous. I’m in Australia so the intensives aren’t an option but Rakuyo is the best deciduous channel going.

My maples and ginkgos are some of my favorite trees
