Hi, another Bonsai Video about a Gumpo Pink Azalea nursery plant that I converted into a slanted style flowering bonsai, shohin size. Enjoy!
I carelessly split the trunk during the process, but hopefully it will survive and become a beautiful bonsai for my collection.
I usually wait until the blooming season is over before pruning my azalea into bonsai.
ROOT PRUNING!!!! WOW! I never thought of sawing the thing in half! I must get one of these saws! Nice tip!
When I first started gardening I wanted to get into bonsai tree making, after buying azaleas I thought they would make good bonsai trees and now this tutorial to help me. Thanks!
I would make your sacrificial branch your main trunk. This would make for a crooked upright tree that looks better proportionally. This would make the trunk look much larger.
I love these videos, so relaxing! It's a shame you passed away. :( R.I.P!
What ...? Who ? passed away. The tree or the presenter ?
Presenter. (the bloke)

Really? How do you know that?
O my..he pass away...I love his voice n teaching...does anyone know what happen???? Pls share
You have a good eye, I had my doubts at first, but you pulled it of wonderfully.
Cheers to you!
Cool video. I always appreciate people who are obviously into bonsai to have fun with it, not to show how much money they can spend on hundred-year-old trees. I'm curious: by now its been almost a year since this video was posted. How did this little tree do? My approach after pruning in this case would have been to trim the roots much less drastically, and plant it in a larger pot for a year and then trim down again from there. But that's just me. Anyway, love the videos!
@TheBonsaiStudent Exactly. Bonsai is an art that takes time. some dont understand that there is no instant bonsai. lol
Thanks for the video. Looks like it will grow to be a beautiful plant, with the care and attention you will give it.
And really i don't understand why people feel the need to make bad comments. It is a sad reflection of your state of mind, and look nothing more than ignorant
Really good video. But all of yours are. Great presentation. Thank you for sharing this.
I started trying this drastic pruning and cutting the roots to almost nothing and trying to make an instant bonsai look. But the shock from all that pruning and cutting roots usually resulted in death to the tree. I like to prune them to where i want the branches to grow but not so drastic on the roots. I take a little bit of rootball at a time and use soil thats good for roots to grow in. Perlite and spagnum peat moss w small grit. Do most of your plants that u do this way survive? I never had much luck at doing all that at once
good stuff...this isjut my opinion, and if advice isnt wanted, please disregard this post lol...in the future, i would suggest leaving a sacrifice branch (or 2)...azaleas don't like to trunk thicken very easily, especially in a pot...so if you leave a couple of lower branches, the tree will become thicker from the base up to that branch due to the sap flow...let those branches grow wild and strong for a couple years...your bonsai will look much more dynamic...just my opinion. great job though!
just dont rush when repotting azeleas cause those roots are so delicate

I have a cutting that I’m hoping to get to grow roots and then train it into a bonsai when it grows up
I love it...!! Gonna have to give it a try
the pot you selected, should have been much more shallow, and the descending "cascade" branch, would have done well to have been cut. it would have then had good left and right movement, and the back budding in the next 3-5 years, would pockmark, and belie the age of the trunk. The thin roots, you were referring to, would have been the only thing that, might have brought back vigor to the tree, after two years, if it's not dead...those were feeder roots. Please don't find discouragement in my ridicule. We should all tell the truth, in what we see, if we respect the artist.
I find your enthusiasm refreshing, and look forward to seeing more videos
I would of planted that in a lil bigger pot it looked messy the dirt part
smooth it out nicely
nice tree though
xi! ontem fez um ano desse video!!
Me diverti vendo tudo o que voce fez com a azaleia. Ruim é porque não tem tradução simultanea. Entendo só pela imagem. As suas explicações eu não consigo acompanhar.
xi! Yesterday was a year of this video!
I enjoyed seeing all that you did with the azalea. Bad is because it has no simultaneous translation. I see only the image. The explanations I can not
@lelkish
Ugly azalea are more beautiful than average bonsai. Bonsai people put so many stuff in pots and call it art. Then the ones that actually look good are thousands or euros.
Azalea are always beautiful because they flower. They are the no.1 plant you can find.
am a BRAND new to bonsai. I am also in Northern California, and wanted to ask you if you do any kind of classes, assistance, advice? I would love to meet you at a nursery and get your advice on plant selection, why this over that, etc.
I would appreciate any time you could share.

are these easy to grow from cuttings?
What did you need the wire for? (beginner here)
Yeh good choice - the oval pot looks better :)
Why didn't u remove all the flowers?
I would u like to know could I live indoor 24 hours or have to be in the sun ?
I tried to grow azalea many times but it can't grow. could u plz tell me about the reason of this ?
Why not a more traditional bonsai soil mix? Also, I'm ver disappointed. Your Yorkie didn't photobomb this video. Come one! It's tradition! The Yorkie always shows up!
VERY NICE THENKS
Doesn't this hurt the tree? Also is it necessary to prune the tree?
The goal is to do it without hurting the plant and yes, for bonsai it is necessary to prune the trees back hard every so often. That is essentially the entire point of bonsai is to cut back all "natural" growth that appears when the tree is growing in the ground without harming the tree and then work on sculpting it into a different looking, much older looking, tree.
LOL i was thinking the same thing about the yard.......
i would wait until it's more bushier first then decice
hi! how old are this azalea?
Isn't this cheating when you didn't grow it as a seedling? ;P.
why dont you show us your face
how can you even call that ugly mess bonsai?
😱
tin tuc viet name
nhac vang viet nam
what a mistake...
poor azalea. just no.
You just destroyed that bonsai plant it looked better before you did that..
