Two questions, please: 1. Can you graft a different species and have the graft be long enough to plant in the soil for nutrition? I guess it would be a thread graft and a root graft that looks like an aerial root. 2. Can you leave the old foliage on and have 2 different species growing at the same time? I am looking for some variety in one bonsai. Thanks for your help and God bless!
Hi this is Larry from Wisconsin just wondering if you pull the screws out after healed. Looking forward to visiting your nursery next January when am we Come down to Florida. I know this is a old post. Thanks.
Hi friends...I find your bonsai quite interesting...It has a matured look...I do have a banyan bonsai on which I have fused roots...But I am constantly looking forward to fuse brenches....I am hoping to get some more branch fusing techniques
new subcriber. I'm new to bonsai. since January. I have watched several hours of how to start or begin. Never heard of the three branch method. You have changed my life, and reduced much frustration.. all my 15 trees that i have are rather 2 dimensional.. but with your info i feel better going forward. left a like. and will start watching your other videos.
This is the first bonsai video I’ve seen that lays out the parameters of bonsai styling in an easy to follow logical format. You have are a natural instructor. I hope you will do more videos in the future. Thanks.
Great informative video from Mike. Being done inside the new shop sounds like you are in a cave, some sound buffers would help that, also what about an attached mike on Mike had to turn the volume way up to hear him. Any possibility you can do a video on how to flatten the roots in development, Mike explains things so much better then others and so far have learned a lot, thanks. Look forward to the Barbados cherry I ordered while watching this video!
Thanks for the video, I love them a lot and learn a lot from those. But one suggestion get a good microphone for audio in your videos as audio is very important in this kind of educational videos and if it's not properly audible ruins the enjoyment of learning. A microphone will also help when you are doing the video indoors unlike this video by cutting the reverb. Also outdoor cutting the ambinet noise a lot. Try with an inexpensive wired mic like Boya available in Amazon, they have a extra long wire and you can sit far away from your camera like you do still have a good sound with high db.
Having to do this long one in shifts and with earphones. The videographer's voice was her own, not mostly echo-ey, if that helps figuring out whatever issue. The information is too good to pass up. I wonder if the drawing of limb growth might be elaborated on, another time. It being the future you see, I need more training on that. Thanks for the 100 minutes!
amazing info! just learned about swamp cypresses for bonsai yesterday and after watching this, I feel like nothing can go wrong with my freshly ordered tree :)
