Learn how to make a bonsai tree at home! In this video we show you how to create a bonsai from cheap nursery stock material. The tree we work on is a 5-year-old Spruce (Picea abies), purchased at a local garden center for about 20 USD.

I kept an eye out for out of the way nursery plants that had been ignored, spending more time in a small pot causing shorter growth and a bigger trunk. I found a Red Stopper that was an absolute natural. I didn't wire and only did a little pruning and root reveal. After potting and moss it looked right out of a fairy tale. The plant continued to look healthy and happy till I moved. My earlier experience with a Jade plant falling apart showed that a hearty species would save me much..heart ache. Nice video!

Jade plants (crassula or "hens & chicks" folk name) are actually very hardy plants. They are susceptible to weird disease and water logging, humidity, stuff like that though. I had a 30 year Jade bonsai, but a truly evil, crazy, psychotic ex-girlfriend happened to it. She poured bleach in it. Who does that? Oh yeah, a truly evil woman.

A rule of thumb about choosing a bonsai pot: once the tree is its final size, the pot should only be as deep as the thickest part of the trunk is wide. It’s traditional for growers to make the pot themselves out of clay, or select a pot with special meaning to it if they’re not good at making pottery. People are often surprised by how shallow final bonsai pots are, in comparison to normal plant pots. Some small bonsai have pots that are only an inch or a few centimeters deep or so.

@DeadBeatLoser69 10 месяцев назад

No plant has a "final size", they will continue to grow forever as long as they are maintained correctly.

@Lethalogica 9 месяцев назад

the entire point of a bonsai is to stunt their growth...@@DeadBeatLoser69

@DeadBeatLoser69 8 месяцев назад

@h...........................The trunk will thicken much more and much faster if a bonsai is kept in a deeper pot. However, this may ruin the shape as it will allow much more room for the tree to grow, therefore allow more foliage to grow. Possibly ruining the shape.

@walnuttree4517 6 месяцев назад

@motherlandbot6837 3 года назад

The spruce here is a Norway Spruce (Picea abies), known as a White Spruce or European Spruce in Europe, and is probably the cultivar 'Nidiformis' ('Nest formed'). As a bonsai subject, P. abies has the very desirable characteristic of rooting easily from cuttings, thus specimens free of graft scars are readily available at low cost.

How did I not even notice? I’m Norwegian so I think my first bonsai will be a Picea abies! Thank you for the information :)

Tropical bonsai are managed and styled very differently from the temperate trees and shrubs that are traditionally used for bonsai. It is not true that you can style, prune, and wire tropical trees and shrubs for bonsai year round, because even most tropical woody plants make seasonal root and top growth, or grow in distinct flushes. The few nearly continuous growers, such as Serissa, grow so quickly that they need regular pruning and styling year round. Despite this, they do not grow into full sized bonsai any faster than their temperate counterparts.

I got a bonsai kit a couple years ago and it was a surprising and interesting gift to receive... Especially considering my living circumstances at the time. But this week, I finally planted 2/4 varieties that it came with. I'm excited to begin this journey and glad I found a resource like you guys! I'll be checking back soon to buy tools and maybe enroll in the course. 🙏🏽✨
