I like Peter because he goes against the mainstream an does things his way to show you it doesn't have to be a set rule set in stone... Most are just guidelines... which Peter Chan will tell you he don't like rules in a second lol 😂😂💚💚💚💚💚🌳🌳🌳🌳
Thank you. You explain things in a way that doesn't push people away but draws them in. Like a father who kids seek to learn from, you encourage growth with a kind but dedicated hand. It obviously translates to your work. Thank you again.
I appreciate your honesty and candid conversation -- so glad I came upon your TH-cam channel -- beautiful work. My very best to you and thank you for your teachings and your lovely work.
This channel is going well!! I've been loving the content; and the revisions and additions made so greatly compliment the style that you have. Fantastic!
Thank you for your videos, especially this one. My respect for you grows with your matter of fact candor and humor and thank you for shining light on some high muckity mucks (local Hawaiian term for pretentious individuals)
I always enjoy how humble you are, there are too may robber barons today, the fight to virtue signal in everything, include Bonsai terms needs to be nipped in the bud.
I LOVE YOU AND YOUR TREES!! IF ONLY I HAD THE TIME LEFT IN MY LIFE I WOULD GROW MYSELF SOME BEAUTIFUL TREES MYSELF. GREEN THUMB I HAVE ALL WAYS HAD, JUST SAYING OLD ONE LEGGED JOSEPH T RETIRED NAVY
It's simply called a garden tree - LOL! Master Chan, I'm a big fan of your work, of your kind of thinking/talking/teaching and of course now of your videos. Is there any chance to do a pratical training with you in your nursery?
Thank you so much. I really like your short videos, you can pack a lot into a short time. The American equivalent to the Tanuki is the Coyote, if you subscribe to the Native American tales of coyotes and observations of coyote behavior. These stories and observations have lead to such cartoon characters as Wylie Coyote and Roadrunner. The difference between the two tricksters is that Coyote's tricks more than likely, will backfire on him. Unfortunately, as urbanization destroys wild spaces the coyote is becoming a pest. Much like the fox in Eourpe. Humans provide a very stable food source.
Well I guess you can now be credited with what I will call a “human tanuki”, someone who gives the impression of knowing more than they do about bonsai knowledge/experience. Thank you for your videos sir, always useful, for myself as a beginner.
What’s the tree behind you in the very end of video? Yew? I saw a very nice one of those from my last trip in Japan. I don’t know many trees used in Japanese gardens... only pines, azaleas, maki, and maples, etc. Also, a question I’ve been wondering for a long time... How come trained/shaped Junipers are never used in Japanese gardens in Japan? Only pines, maples and other (unknown to me) trees. I noticed Junipers are only used as hedges in Japan inside gardens. (Of course, junipers are commonly used for potted/bonsai in Japan though) Please teach us more of Japanese garden-trees/niwaki! 😊
4:29 the drift wood is growing Edit: if you ask a Japanese bonsai artist what a jin you'll get a confused face jin is a western term for short stumpy dead wood
I've never been a fan of Tonoki trees. It's cool since we have short lives to get an old tree faster, but it's just an insult to real grown trees with real deadwood. Yes, I call it cheating.
Your comment that china is where bonsai originated???? Think back to the time of Rah (the sun god) the Egyptians were the first to put a tree in a pot which is the definition of bonsai. Happy pinching...
"They make out that they know more than you do... I don't like that!" Peter is the best

I can empathize with the caressing of the nebari or the tree itself. This is a deep love or appreciation of the object.
Thank you for your clear, common-sense guidance on the art of bonsai. You are a gentleman!

You hit the nail on the head with people using the Japanese terms to make beginners feel like inferior.
Thankyu for you guidance, never is it dull. You are a natural born exceptional teacher, from B.C.
I love this.. it helps to demystify this art form. I would love more videos like this one!
Concise, courteous and calming... Much respect. Thankyou

I like your Hawaiian term!!
I like the Tanuki story. :) They are really cute in reality as well.
Thank you for another beautiful video.

Those are large Scots Pines (Pinus sylvestris)
thats not just true for bonsai. thank you 老师
4:29 the drift wood is growing
Edit: if you ask a Japanese bonsai artist what a jin you'll get a confused face jin is a western term for short stumpy dead wood
Yes, and yamadori is an ilegal action i really hate that i prefer buy prebonsai and do It myself with the years, i prefer to follow the bonsai Do
I agree with you completely - I dont agree with this practice.
The tanuki thing is cool. On Endor we call them Ewoks.
I've never been a fan of Tonoki trees. It's cool since we have short lives to get an old tree faster, but it's just an insult to real grown trees with real deadwood. Yes, I call it cheating.
Do the real creatures wear the hats?
I don't think so - unless these scavengers pick one up from the garbage heaps! Ha Ha!
It's a raccoon dog
