It’s so surprising to see so many people call this plant abuse 😭 you can tell people don’t bother to search up anything these days, really sad. Beautiful bonsai though, one day I want to create my own bonsai tree :)
True, about every 5th comment is something negative like that. I have long given up trying to convince people otherwise, they won’t hear it and I don’t feel like having the same argument hundreds of times. You get it though, I am glad for that
@@Bonsaiflybecause through pain comes transformation... The caterpillar does not like being trapped in the cocoon for so long. but yet he does it. It's the only way to fly.
Guys the tree is fine it will look like this again soon it’s just pruning not cutting everything and this is how bonsai trees started they will look like a old tree but tiny and this is the process
@@PafMedic"why do it?" Because it's an art form. It imitates what trees look like in nature on a small scale. It does not compensate the tree's health either. It literally gets better care than if it was growing outside.
@@PafMedic why do you feel the need to criticize something that isn't hurting anyone? It's art and makes people happy, find something more worthy of criticism 😂
This is an absolutely beautiful result and I can't wait to see how the tree progresses! Super inspiring!! Absolutely staggered at the display of ignorance in the comments 💀
I literally have a small Alberta Spruce with triple trunks that I'm going to style on camera. The weather finally broke and I'm getting ready to set up now! Great video and perfect timing..it will be my first!
There is absolutely no need to worry. As long as you leave some green on the plant you'll be fine. And in some cases only a bulb is needed. Plan6are built to adapt to a loss of a few stems and can even grow out fuller. Just look up how to do it correctly
My dog once chewed my acer to the bare bone, I was thinking of throwing it away but just was curious, and next season it had leaves everywhere. The little buggers are much more resilient that people are willing to give credit, and why you can have such beautiful bonsai if you’re willing to give it enough time. ^^
That's part of the art. With bonsai, you intentionally prune and feed the tree such that it has enough nutrients to be healthy and survive, but not enough to grow big.
I tried bonsai from garden stores before and couldn’t keep them alive. What’s your secret? I was always terrified to remove too much in one clipping but when I did a hard pruning I killed it. Do you prune and let it recover then repot the next year? Or do you repot then trim the next year? How much can a spruce take in one go? Thank you!
It’s not really a secret but I only perform one big action per year. I prefer to repot first and then wait a year and then style, but sometimes I do it the other way around. And yes, this one is still alive
This one is a Picea Conica. What you’ll need is scissors, concave cutters, wire and cut paste. All the other tools you can use help but aren’t necessarily needed
This was pretty severe but the first styling always is like that. For your second question: I could’ve just let one branch on the tree and it would’ve survived. So as long as you leave some green the tree can recover. Preferably do it in spring or autumn and cover wounds with cut paste
This is beautiful and I see these small “Christmas trees” at my local supermarket all the time. So after doing so much pruning would you keep the plant in its original pot so the roots remain together while the plant “repairs” itself or would you repot it to a bonsai style pot? Thank you sorry for the questions I just find it quite inspiring I would like to try 🌲
