Perfect for people who like to water often!

great video! thanks for such great content.

My wife used to work at the Santa Barbara Orchid estate. She has some awesome plants. Thank you

If you ask me I would say it looked good before you trimmed it. I liked the natural look before it was trimmed. I do't know anything about Bonsai rules so my opinion doesn't matter here. I just think it looked cool before cutting it up.

This is a very therapeutic hobby. I have two different red acer pulmatums, a blood good and a crimson queen that I have been working with for a year now. They were both bought as 24" saplings. Wow how they have changed with trimming and being kept in a shallow pot over a year. I am looking forward to the next several years of shaping and spending time with these trees.

Very nice

How do you know the bonsai is not dried up and dead? Mine lost all leaves and doesnt look alive anymore.

how do you thicken the trunk?

I can’t speak for your climate. But in my climate, zone 7, those shimpaku would be atleast 5-6 years old from a cutting and 3-4 from air layer . Great demonstration

How long did it take to get to that size? I’ve been growing a maple for 3 months. It’s tiny. Seems like it’s taking forever lol

Two will be nice

Very nice

Very informative thank you again

🥰🥰👍

Nice change of focus and good information. I like growing adenium (desert rose), sansevieria and succulents (such as euphorbia) in interesting pots. I place them in my category of "artistic plants." They provide winter interest indoors during winter. Best wishes.

"Begin with the end in mind". Very helpful.

👍👌🙂

Fantastic video....! Enjoyed very much the direct transfer of knowledge, very clear, and practical. I particularly loved the way you make it simple...., throwing the tree on the ground to remove the soil.... The potting mix and root advice is very very important and helpful. Thank you sir.

thanks for this wonderful tip Dr. Milton 😊 I will keep this in my heart. let me share to you that I became fascinated and deeply in love with the Art of Bonsai from the moment I watched the Karate Kid 1 wherein the scene Mr. Miyagi (the late Pat Morita) taught Daniel who became his karate student his the basic of cutting or pruning of leaves of Japanese Juniper if I am not mistaken. That movie was shown several times in TV then the feeling of being in love with bonsai grew and grew within me much deeper until year 1999 ( i am 22 years old) I started to plant and I started with Boungeunvilla the red one which is I think the most common here in my country, Philippines. then I bought a book, Bonsai for Beginner so that I could understand more this art. from 1999 to 2004 I had 30 pieces all started from seeds and cuttings, all are in their first stage, establishing good roots and thickening of trunk. then the saddest part came on march 2004, we vacated the house my dad's company's temporary housing to their employee which accommodated until 60 years of age of the employee's retirement age, all are dead because I could no longer pay much attention to its needed care 😢 when.i brought them to our new home my dad's retirement house. I am 46 years of age now, I am returning to this passion , I loved most.... Bonsai ❤ I am praying that I will never leave this again 😊

Love your channel and appreciate you sharing your passion for bonsai with viewers. I especially enjoy today's off-topic episode and the story of how you acquired the antique porcelain planter. Looking forward for more.

🥰🥰

Hi sir! I have a question about my black pine just bought from nursery field, it’s been 2 weeks now and I put the tree under the shade and expose to morning sun one hour every day, I cut back some branches so when can I move the tree to full Sun?

Hello there. I have around 7 orchids in my house one of which I have since 2016. They give me around 2 blooms annually. 4 of them are kept in water jars ( with 2 cm of water ) - I change that water weakly- this neat trick gave me a TON of new roots! ( orchids can be kept in water, provided you change that water ). As for the ice cube trick, that is a definite No No! The cold water will dmg the roots

You make such a good point. I forget how much I paid for things just a few weeks ago. And this is also very relevant to my new garden trees. I have terrible soil that that doesn’t accept moisture from a hose.

hi Mr. Milton Chang this topic you discussed gives me the idea on how I can thicken the trunk I am doing for my Duhat or Java Plum tree 😊❤❤❤ I got it last August 2018 from the side of our warehouse its a low cliff and its seeds fell to the ground and several pieces grown and I took 1 bearing in my mind I will try to turn it into a bonsai. I transferred it to its permanent home (pot) last May 2024 after 5 years and 11 months, so far it's growing great, new branches coming out 😊 I am from Philippines

I'm a Janitor and so many office workers tend to throw away their orchids once the flowers fall off! I've collected those lovely plants over the years and they seem to bloom every year for me! :)

THIS BONSAI HAVE SPIDER MITES

Taking a sawzall to a 500 year old tree gave me an overwhelming amount of anxiety.

Yes. Those types of orchids are expensive. Nice flowers on yours. Great advice.

"The difference is very minor in a bigger scale of things" -- nice words Sir I'll will not forget this.

🥰🥰

Beautiful new show cutting seeing as well just national 🥰🥰

My cousin has 3 orchid plants. He does very well with them. One of them he got at CVS believe it or not. It's amazing with light yellow flowers with pinkish purple lines on them really cool specimen. He's always telling me orchid facts including that vanilla comes from a certain type of orchid. Also, be aware that some of the cheaper ones that have really bright flowers they spray with coloring to turn white flowers different colors that wont be there next time it blooms.Anyway I'll share this video with him, thank you Mr. Chang

I did have orchids in my other home. The window exposure was perfect for them there and they thrived beautifully. Unfortunately, my current home is a different setup. Orchids are fantastic! Thanks for the ice cube trick.

🥰🥰

Wow! That's a gorgeous orchid!! I think I will give them another try. I bought a few some years back but when they quit flowering I threw them away.

I used to throw mine away after flowering but then tuned in to miss orchid girl on yt. She is the queen of orchids and i save all my orchids now and do incredibly well with them. And the ice cube thing just dont do that. Water them properly and forget the ice cube myths. And i certainly wouldnt water a bonsai that way just saying. And u wouldnt believe they actually grow sideways on trees but we put them standing up in pots . They are great plants to maintain and enjoy

it really helps to repot them as soon as you buy it, they are typically potted in soil or moss that's too thick and orchids should be in something much more airy

This was cool. Thanks!

I have orchid’s that are at least 30yrs old and they continue to bloom lasting about 5 months sometimes longer. I have them in glass containers in reptile bark and water them once a month in the winter and every two weeks in the summer. I believe that they can survive for 60yrs. I live in UK 🇬🇧

Never had luck with orchids but I have been wanting to give them another try. Thank you for this video.

Be encouraged

Talk about timing. Decided to try Orchids - again - after “years” of last failures with them. Found just like you indicate, it’s time and simple efforts to keep them going. I found once every week, sometimes every two weeks, thoroughly watering them, or soaking in a bucket has kept them alive. Flowers died, but inactive buds on stem starting to show promise of new flowering. I agree, many like aspects to bonsai tending. You have some beautiful orchids there in video.

Genial gracias

Love your videos. Any insite or wisdom you can pass on is always welcome. I'm new to bonsai but taking in all the information i can from you and other bonsai UA-camrs. It's amazing seeing all the different perspectives on it 🙂

This was awesome, very nice healthy recovery.

I really think the side you called the back should be the front so the hole in the trunk can be seen from the front. Do you find you tend to face most of your trees curving the same direction? It seems many bonsai artists do.
