How to Shape Maples 

Think I can speak on behalf of everyone here... We don't get bored...

You are never boring. We can learn so much, and your 'informal' attitude towards bonsai is so refreshing. Please continue.

Never boring, never too long. Always informative, entertaining and encouraging . Peter’s knowledge and expertise knows no bounds. I could watch him all day, in fact I have, and continue to expand my own knowledge! Peter you are simply the best! Sending warm wishes from your #1 Florida fan! 🐊🌴🦩😎

Your videos never get boring Peter. Watching someone with immense knowledge impart what they know is only ever interesting. Thank you.

Peter....we are maple clan! Keep the maple videos coming brother. You need to remember we know 3% of what you do. This is all super informative

I like the sound of the rain in the back ground. It's my favorite time in a green house

Speaking for myself, Peter you never waste my time. Everything you do teaches me something. Thank you for the time you put into your videos.

4:00 in the morning here in North Carolina. A cup of coffee and a new video from Peter chan. The best way to start the day..

Wat heerlijk om elke keer te kijken en te genieten van Peter.

I'm never bored, I learn so much each time. I've been watching for 3 years. Thanks

Not bored. The only thing better than watching you work on a bonsai is a little bit of rain in the background.

"So today... is another day." I could genuinely listen to this brilliant man speak for hours and hours and never get bored.

Never ever bored with this Mr . Chan! How can you get bored .....? Thanks again 🌳🌳🌳🌳

There is always something new to learn from Peter. The time it takes to grow and develop a bonsai is remarkable but so rewarding.

Never bored. Relaxed, yes, but never bored. Thank you Peter.

You are Never boring Peter...you are simply the best...belive mi .

I actually loved the sound of the rain in the background

There something special about not just simply purchasing and styling a bonsai, but growing and cultivating a tree from a young age into a beautiful specimen just as you do on your nursery Peter, and for this I admire your wisdom and knowledge greatly ☯️

Never bored of maple content! Working on my first bonsai I have been able to learn very quickly from your videos! Already a plant person for over 10 years so I learn from your videos easily! You’re a great teacher love your maples!

In lockdown in Sydney, definitely not bored, being kept sane. Thank you deeply.

Love the sound of the rain during this video

None of what you do is boring in any way. Give us MOOREEE of those contents

Never get tired of seeing you shape up those trees. Always entertaining and gives lots of schooling on how to train and trim. Thank you, thank you.

Bored NEVER. All of us could watch and listen to you day after day. And I’m sure I speak for many of your students, we can not thank you enough for ALL of the knowledge you have freely passed on to us. Thank You Peter! You are truly a very special person.

I love watching and learning from you. Repeating things is how most people learn so please keep repeating yourself and teaching us ❤❤

I am doing the Peter Chan tour first week in September. RHS Wisley followed a couple of days later by a visit to the nursery at Lingfield 😁 Having watched every video multiple times I will be a gibbering embarrassment 😆

Give me Peter Chan and maples and I will never be bored! Seriously, it's a joy to watch your video. Personally, I found the raindrops sound very relaxing

You’re videos are great! I think the rain adds to the experience.

Keep them coming. Love watching you work peter. 😊😊

Never apologize for the rain, nature is nature and it is beautiful. Thank you for your dedication to the trees. ❤

We dont get bored Peter. Thank you for sharing your wisdom

Not bored with this channel at all! Love it.

Please never apologize for mother nature; the rain sounded lovely!

I will never get bored by your videos!

Never boring! I enjoy listening to Peter, and add in the rain... is even more relaxing! Awesome video!

Not boring to watch you do this stuff at all, we need the reinforcement of repetition to help the knowledge sink in, and we learn so many little details that others don’t think to describe. Keep doing what you do!

Never boring, I always look forward to your videos. Thank you 😊

Always exciting for new videos all the time!!

Love the rain in the background

I love the rain sound :-) Very relaxing

I watch from Indiana regularly and never bored of maples. Enjoy all your videos.

Peter you can make thousand videos with maples and i will still watch them all, with a big smile on my face.

im not bored of maples yet, Peter :) I just started acquiring my first maples for bonsai, and I am still soaking it all in.. thanks for the vids man!

The Rain was great, trees, and water are meant to be, they kinda go trunk and limb, if you know what i mean!! LOL!! I hope I live long enough to get a maple bonsai like these, such and amazing and beautiful tree, and I enjoy seeing each one of your masterpieces!! I couldn't imagine, I rescued a Ficus that someone was just going to let freeze, I bought it home a few years ago, just topped it this year, after letting it bounce back from the shock it had a few years ago. It not a bonsai, Like ten trunks corkscrewed upward, to a canopy that is 6 to 7 feet tall, and three to four feet canopy. I couldn't imagine being able to own a bonsai such as the beautiful trees you are able to achieve in such an amazing display of beauty!!

Agreed, with previous comments, never too long, never boring, you inspire and make the journey interesting, and I am sure we all love the sound of the rain in the background, you are the master.

Never get bored. Love watching all your videos

I never get bored with your videos in fact sometimes I replay them this way I can learn more from you wish I could come visit someday

Never ever bored of watching a master at work. fantastic value packed into every video you make. We r extremely lucky to be able to watch.🌲👍

I really love your maple videos. The long videos are a okay with me. it's good to repeat the basics

I don't get bored, I like to see what you're doing! :)

I love your videos & no, I dont get bored. I watch you videos over & over sometimes. You’re a great inspiration & I refer to u as Master Chan 🙇🏽

I'm not gonna lie, I kinda enjoy the background rain sounds. It just adds to the ASMR

Quite knowledgeable, and humble. What a soothing past time. Patience, Grasshopper.

“I do what I think is beautiful” that is also how I bonsai! Art should never exclude anything! Your awesome man that’s the most awesome thing I’ve hear you say!

I want them all, hope we can all visit and spend all day at Herons someday. Beautiful trees indeed, bravo Peter and team 👍. Thx for sharing, cheers 🌳🌲.

We are never board of your videos Peter!!! We love them and I look forward to them every day 🤗🤗🤗 keep up your amazing work!!! Thank you so much for all of your help, guidance and assistance. I’m in love with Japanese Maples because of your videos and I love bonsai now!! Best thing to get is through this pandemic- it’s certainly helped me. Thanks again 👍😁

The rain is quite pleasing it makes it even better

I'm never bored Peter. Thank you so much for all your master lessons.

Always a pleasure to see your videos . Thank you for sharing your experience.

@34:02, that is such a tremendously beautiful tree!!! Wow, I'm blown away!!

Makes me miss my maples from the Pacific North West, now live oaks are my best friend. You truly are a master sir, definitely someone I'd love to shadow for a day and buy lunch. Have a beautiful day mate

@19:01, That is a magnificence specimen, Wow, what a beautiful natural looking tree!!

I'm infatuated with BONSIA trees, always have been, I love art, & this is living art. Something g that lasts a lifetime outlives us, what a great gift for your grand children & generations to come. Something you ve created . I think it's great. This man peter, I love him, he's such a gentleman 😍. Always thinking of us who are watching. Bless him. Hello Peter from one of your many NO 1 fans. X

You are the one who is patient! Thank you!

I'm not bored yet. I share your love of maples Peter I just don't have hundreds of glorious decades old specimens yet. It's great to be able to share yours. It is really inspiring to see the fruits of you labor and vision for the future. You have and continue to use your time wisely. You have had a huge impact on my life and lives of millions of others. Thank you for experimenting with pottery, falling inlove with bonsai and creating this thing called Herons.

Love love love seeing what your doing! Lol

Your lessons are never boring, Mr. Chan. Because of you and the knowledge you share, my little pot of new maple seedlings now have a chance to thrive and mature into something wonderful. Thank you! 🪴🌳🌞

Thank you for all of your incredible videos

Each tree unique. Each with its own potential. Like an arrow in your hands Peter. You aim each in its best direction. Watching you is therapudic. We are in your debt. So thank you for your "Madness" It helps us think outside the box.

Bored?? Never 🙃. Sometimes I don’t even see the video (Peter in action) and just listen you speak while doing something else like working on my plants 🌱. You can never be boring 💚💚.

Thank you I've learned so much from this video. Especially the open coil wiring. I have a red maple and trident. This knowledge will help me during development.

I'm new to bonsai and this channel has been very helpful with tips and also in firing up my enthusiasm even more!

Just adding another comment to say no we're not bored. I enjoy the Maple tree videos a lot. I actually have a small Deshojo myself so these are very useful and informative.

Beautiful. I could never tire of watching you make J. Maples beautiful. I have several air layerings from my acer palmatum grown from seed 30 yrs ago and was wondering how in the world can I ever make them beautiful. This video gives me hope.

Enjoy watching your videos.

When i first got into bonsai 3 years ago and looked up how to trim a maple peters video how to trim a maple came up and the second i heard his voice i said to myself this guy , this guy right here is the guy thats going to take me through my bonsai journey. Rest is history..

Thank you. Very useful to see different ways to shape a mid sized maple. I have a 2 trunk maple that I am trying to develop more as a larger garden tree, but it really needs some style and more ramification.

You are the reason I got into bonsai. Thank you for sharing your immense treasure of information.

Love the maple videos! Keep 'em coming! Never bored!!

Love seeing you working on maples can never get bored of that.

I just love maples! Thank you for this video.

love maple! thanks so much for sharing

It's always enjoyable watching you work Chan shifu. Some other Bonsai presenters who don't speak as well as you may get boring during long work sessions but somehow you never do.

It is very interesting to follow your guidance and could learn important points. Thank you so much.

Amazing work! Thanks for sharing!

Very informative video, and beautiful maples. You got me into maples, now I have like 20. I love your videos, blessings from Texas!!

Always a great pleasure to watch your videos Peter. I love maples also, love to own a large trunk maple . 🇬🇧😊❤️

Never bored watching your great videos! I even purchase some kits and want to try this myself as a hobby in my old age 😊. Thank you for sharing as always!

Sir Peter Chang 😁👍 Thank you so much for the video on maple, once again fantastic knowledge, but can we have a video on how to shape young ficus , I have planted some cutting who are now 4 years old but struggling on how to give them a shape !! And root over rock . I will be visiting Lingfield very soon. As always you the best 😁👍

I love all your videos it’s very inspiring. I myself have started to pick up bonsai as I hobby and it’s very rewarding

Maples are my favorite trees,thank You a lot for Your amazing work :)

Interesting and informative. I’m comprehending bonsai more fully, and I’m really inspired.

If I’m not worrying to much about what people tell me, then my inspiration for bonsai doesn’t have to be trees I see in nature? Teasing aside ….this was a wonderful video. Thank you Peter. I love that you are doing less into stuff and and showing us some more complex work!

Thanks Peter. We don't get bored because I have only 5 maples and a couple of maple cuttings growing, so have only limited scope to learn or develop 'maple' technique. Watching you work on your trees is the other way to gain knowledge and a bit of confidence in the techniques for progressing my own trees. I've learned more watching these videos than I ever learned from books or the bonsai courses I took 20 years ago. Repetition reinforces knowledge. I will add to the requests to keep the videos coming. We also need some sort of warning - the term 'Gatekeepers' almost caused my keyboard to be covered in coffee. Thanks again.

It is very much interesting and comfortable to follow your explanation. Thank you so much.

Peter is always Zen on 6 cups of coffee… 😑🤙🔥🤣🙌
