Watch my progress as I experiment with tropical prebonsai. I will document my successes and failures. I am self taught and am not teaching anything just demonstrating what I do.
This plant's elegant appearance combined with its health benefits makes Wrightia antidysenterica a must-have for any herbal enthusiast. 🌼🌱. Thanks for sharing
The combination of Ficus Microcarpa 'Tiger Bark', Wrightia antidysenterica 'Asian Snow', and Jasmine 'Milky Way Snowflake' creates a stunning and diverse botanical collection! Each plant brings unique beauty and benefits. 🌿✨. Thanks for sharing
@@TropicalBonsai no the leaves & bark & sap of the Florida strangler fig have a slight scent. I would love to have a Florida strangler fig bonsai, but I'm allergic.
@@TropicalBonsai yeah it would've... But you are here and some of them are here to be nursed back to health by you.... I'm with you on your journey, and I'll learn through your application 🙏🏾
It’s your tree, do what makes you happy… but taking a long term view, a harder road to a premium end, I’d cut every branch (including the top) back hard. It’s a focus, it will rebud very easily. Let those buds grow out and cut back again to two nodes. Doing this will bring everything back in tighter to the trunk and begin to create taper in the branches. Long term, it will build a bonsai like you see in the books. Ultimately it’s about whatever makes you happy. At the moment it’s perhaps a little out of proportion, branches are too thick and long in scale to the trunk. The only other way to keep this design in scale in coming years would be to remove it from a bonsai pot and put it in a grow box to enlarge everything. Just my unsolicited opinion, take it with a grain of salt. I appreciate you’re putting yourself out there! And top marks for tree health!
Yeah I'm just having fun. That's the point of a hobby. I have several microcarpa around this size. I don't want to make them all look the same. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-lWgx2A-Ddso.html
Firstly I love the musical choices, especially the second piece...really groovy 🎉🎉.. that's a mighty fine looking tree you've got there my friend....and some really good ramification 🎉🎉🎉 keep up the great work 🎊
That's so funny. I remember seeing him when I made the video but didn't think to look when I edited it. I've got hundreds of them in the yard. My pest protection program. I put him back outside when I got done with the video.
I had one .. didn't really like it and didn't keep it. Cracked a lot of branches trying to wire.. and didn't grow well for me in bonsai soil .. grew better in the pre-bonsai stuff.. Good luck to you Alan!
