How To Deal With Your Collected Bonsai Material
Golden Privet - Ligustrum ovalifolium Aureum
I take you with me on collecting the Stumps!
I came across these on a social media platform - Buying & selling pages. I contacted the gentleman, and arranged to pop by to dig them out.
I was chasing the sun this day so had to pot the stumps in the handy wheelbarrow. I threw some soil over them both and gave them a little water. I could then get them potted up the next day.
So in this video, i take you through the process and how to deal with the stumps. We begin with a wash down to remove the excess mud and soil.
I then investigate the roots to see what we have to work with to hopefully build up a nice nebari.
Once all the unwanted roots have been removed I then cut back the finer roots to give them better chance to help with the new growth.
Then all that’s left to do is pot the Privet up!
I show you a good and trust worthy soil mix that you can use on A Budget.
I also show you my own soil mix my that I have put together. I have now used this on a few of my trees to experiment and it has worked really well..!
