How To Make Bonsai from Collected Material 

In this Bonsai video I show you how to create a Bonsai Tree from Collected Material! The species of tree we are working with in this video is Lonicera, also known as the Hedging Honeysuckle.
I explain how to set up collected material so that it can be developed into a bonsai tree, as well as how to transition a tree that has been developed in a pond basket into the later refinement stages of bonsai. Initially, this development process may seem complicated, but I'll show you how it can be quite simple! However, it may take some time for a tree to regain full health and be ready for styling after being collected.
Collected material in bonsai often gives us the most beautiful results because nature has already done much of the work! This is especially true for older trees like wild pines and junipers collected from the mountains, known as Yamadori in Japan. When collecting material, it's crucial to obtain permission from the landowner and to never dig up material that you know will not survive the collection process. (Collect Ethically!)
The material I have collected is a Lonicera, or Hedging Honeysuckle. For beginners, this species is perfect for practice when it comes to collecting material, as they are quite popular in gardens and very forgiving. It's the perfect tree for beginners to collect. The best time to collect trees is in spring! Initially, the material might not look like much, but if it has a good trunk line with interesting movement, then surely a great bonsai can come from it!
