You've seen these Home Depot Maples back in May 2023 when I did the first cutting. Now, I'll show you how I do the second clipping to transform these into bonsai one day. They've grown a lot in the past few months!

Awesome video. I currently have a Japanese maple that i dug up from a job, pruned the roots and potted it. Looking well so far hopefully it survived everything. I would like to cut it down like this next winter 🎉

@bonsaiheirloom 6 месяцев назад

That's great!

@brianjanku4549 6 месяцев назад

I may have cut some of those larger branches off. I am making bonsai out of simular material. I want to prune to promote backbudding the first year, then chop the big branches to the trunk on year 2. Mybe i will try one like this too.

You hit the nail on the head when you purchased these 3 Maples. Great buy!!!

Trying to promote...bonsai need not be expensive hobby.

@growclipbonsaiforseniors1951 6 месяцев назад

@@MiltonChang-ee6rq Correct. Maple seedlings growing in the spring are free and the sprouted ones are easy to dig up. Free also. I try and do the same. I do geranium bonsai also. Cheap and easy, especially when on sale for $0.50 on the ones they forgot to water and are still green.

Another helpful video, thanks. I bought 2 maples from a garden centre last year, I'll be taking a lot of your tips this video to do a similar thing 🙂

Music provided by Songbird Inc. Hey, just the warning Maples belong to a group of trees, known as bleeders. If you prune them from late winter to late spring, talking about a sizing bowl branch, the sap will start running and you cannot stop it. I had a nursery back in 80s and 90s called dwarf Gardens, I did a lot of bones eye for retail one day. A gentleman came over who had in the enormous bones eye collection. His backyard look like Mr. Miyagi, but he came to me because he couldn’t stop the bleeding on his Japanese maple. We tried everything from using a propane, torch wax seals. Eventually it did stop running, but again, not a good time of the year to prune a thick branch on a Japanese maple from late winter to mid spring

@brianjanku4549 6 месяцев назад

I bought some .They work great! I do like the bypass pruner for larger twigs. Bypass pruners smash one side of the cut, though. The small red ones allow one to score around the cut nicely.

@joeimbesi5361 6 месяцев назад

Tree #2…cut that large low branch off now. It extends too far from the trunk. Cut all thick branches back to promote budding closer to the trunk. Secondary branching will be really far out there otherwise. I know you prefer your style but maybe try one tree with a severe reduction. Maybe consider a concave cutter to clean up those cuts. They aren’t expensive anymore.

@brucedeacon28 6 месяцев назад

👍👌🙂

@SCPorchGardner 4 месяца назад

I would like to know how to make some leaves smaller. I know not all trees can do this, but what is the process or does it happen naturally? Thanks

@bonsaiheirloom 4 месяца назад

Have to be specific to each tree. Mistreating like depriving of water will do it…but make the tree sickly. Leaf size reduces when there is more branching…this is very obvious with elm and Zelkova.

@JonathanP-kj4sr 5 месяцев назад

Hi , what is your advice regarding grafted japanese maples? I have a shishigashira which is grafted and the scar is not bad but I have read online it can get worst as the tree ages. In your experience, does the graft scar improve/worsen over time or is it best to air layer the tree at the graft scar and restart. Are there any tricks to avoid it looking worst? I have read surrounding the base of the trunk with sphangnum moss can help?

@bonsaiheirloom 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for your question. I answered this in my most recent Q&A so please check it out: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vCcdrgSJNTQ.htmlfeature=shared

@sandyd4922 6 месяцев назад

Do you propagate the clippings? Is it worth it? Thanks for sharing your knowledge ❤

@MiltonChang-ee6rq 6 месяцев назад

These are seedling..quality not up to par...so I don't bother. Maple cuttings are easy to root.

@williamscott791 6 месяцев назад

I love Japanese maples ..but unfortunately I am in Texas and the heat is like crazy brutal on maples you have to be very finessing between greenhouses and shade trees and I mean like heavy cover shade trees to get away with a successful maples here it's always a chore to find that fine balance to keep one looking good and healthy here

@MiltonChang-ee6rq 6 месяцев назад

to Give itample water and keep it in the shade should do fine. Trident leaves are less likely to burn like Palmatum

@DeciduousSnurb 6 месяцев назад

Have you checked out the MrMaple "Heat Seeker" series of Japanese Maples. Many are rated to grow in parts of Texas I believe.

@89squall 6 месяцев назад

your first tree has four thick branches growing out of one spot. won't this cause the tree to thicken too much?

@lorenzoveronese6608 6 месяцев назад

Yess, it will cause it. Also many branches where damaged when cut. It seems to me that he has done the things too fast and roughtly, not good to learn from something like that

@MiltonChang 6 месяцев назад

I promote freedom of growth vs stereotyping Art vs craft Note Japanese word to describe great bonsai master as craftsman I will show the word on my Q&A

Thank you for your response. i am looking forward to your next Q&A @@MiltonChang

@MiltonChang-ee6rq 6 месяцев назад

Trees grow with their own mind...and could look natural. So I do not see that as a problem

@clintbuhs7708 6 месяцев назад

I don't believe Acer palmatum is available at my local Home Depot because of the local cold climate. When I look online to order them I see that most are grafted. Do I need to avoid grafting with Japanese maple?

@lawrencemielnicki5643 6 месяцев назад

I would take the grafted maple and do an air layering. You may find you get a few trees that way.

@MiltonChang-ee6rq 6 месяцев назад

Check your local nurseries.

@growclipbonsaiforseniors1951 6 месяцев назад

How can I email you? I think I have a solution to your pruning problem on those big thick branches. I do not use any of the sites on your info. Old fashioned I guess. I am 75 and think I can help. If you can give the address. Thank you. Nice work on the Maples.

You know when you are using that handy dandy clipper on bigger limbs then it was designed for it looks like your struggling. I’ve found that I buy quality tools and they last. Bonsai tools especially when you buy quality tools are overpriced. I’ve had some of my tools for 45 years. If I were to buy them today it would be very expensive.

@lorenzoveronese6608 6 месяцев назад

Agree with you. "Cut pretty well"😂

@MiltonChang 6 месяцев назад

Prices of good stainless knob cutters have came down a factor of two since with chinese imports The point is to break naturally Heals over nicely! To popularize… Democratize!

@OutsidethePot 6 месяцев назад

@@MiltonChang Yes I understand. I’m always looking for a better less expensive way of doing things. I’m not poor by no means but dropping the money on bonsai tools is not first on my list of bills to pay each month. And you just look like you are struggling with those shears. But I do enjoy your program
