- I'm pruning back the summer growth on my bonsai trees before they come inside the plant room for the winter!
In this video I prune my Guava bonsai, my Money tree and my Kapok Rain Forest.
The trees in this video are the common Guava (Psidium guajava), the Money Tree (Pachira aquatica) also known as the Malabar chestnut, French peanut, Guiana chestnut, Provision tree, Saba nut, Monguba and the Pumpo and the Kapok tree (Ceiba pentandra)

A crispy, cool fall day, with the blue jays chattering and for the best part, no emergency vehicles sirens a blasting. Ah a good day in the Bonsai Zone.
Yes, it was one of those peaceful quiet days, me and the birds. I'll miss those days in winter!
Who here actually watches all tje commercials so Nigel can get his Coins 😳
.
Your rain forest looks amazing. Grew quite tall.
Thanks, I'm just happy if people like the videos!
We dont like them... We love them✌
I do, i think he should put some ads at the end. And I see the hole video with out paussing it.
@@anadelao1170 honestly its just relaxing plus there is always more room for knowledge
@@bonsaihigh Yes, relaxing and knowledge, I would add... inspiration.
Thank you so much for taking time to tech us . I have learned so much from your videos ❤️
Thank you Sherry, nice to hear!
You are such an artist. Every part of the video is excellent. The camera position, the angle, the background depth, the color, plus the bonsai itself.
Thx for sharing, gl with filling your plantroom, hopefully you get all to fit inside it !
That is one pretty guava tree you got there. It has lots of potential. Good to see your Kapok forest is doing well. Thanks for sharing.
I'm excited that the Gauva is growing so well, considering all the root pruning I have done to the tree. It has a long way to go and lots of growing to do!
you have been putting out tons of videos lately! thanx for all the hard work Nigel! looking at the forest floor of that kapok forest, the truck placement looks really good!
Thank you, I'm glad you are enjoying the videos! I have lots more to come, both indoors and out!
thank you for sharing the pruning of these tall bonsai 🙏
I'm glad you enjoyed all my lumberjack cuts!
Enjoyed seeing you trim back the tall bonsais. Hope you'll show them in the plant room once they are all indoors.
I'll be sure to do that, the plant room roof will be done tomorrow and then I have some insulating and vapor barrier work to do. I have a heater in the greenhouse, we haven't had frost yet, but it is a possibility again tonight. Busy times ahead!
I like the leaves on the Guava tree. They are thick looking.
The Guava has come a long way, but it has a long way to go, lots of growing!
I really like the Guava tree, I'll have to try and grow one someday. Looks like it's going down to 0°c tonight
I went out and bought a guava after watching his video about growing guavas from seed! I had a lovely snack, and left a ton of seeds in wet paper towel. Almost two years later, I have five little saplings, recently repotted - and pretty healthy :)
They aren't kidding when they say that guavas are extremely slow to grow. Two years and the tallest one is only about up to my knee. They're very thin, but woody and surprisingly sturdy. They're kind of funny to look at.
Just last week I noticed that a few have finally begun to rammify -- I'm super excited to see where they go next :)
Hey that's great ! You should do a video of them sometime.
Hi Nigel just for info...guava tree has alot of benefits as medicinal tree...Nice video again sir!
Such a beautiful tree Nigel!
Bugün, güzel bir gün. Sayende 🙏
'Nigel Saunders, the guardian of all trees bonsai'
I do my best!
Hi Mr Saunders, when will you give us an update of your citrus bonsai?
I just want to thank you real quick for sharing your knowledge. I'm just getting into bonsai (I started three apple seedlings, and I'm hoping to prune them in a year or two when they're more vigorous), so watching you prune is very satisfying and makes me a little less scared of the pruning I'll eventually have to do. You definitely scare me sometimes (OMG why are you taking all the leaves off?!... Oh, it's gonna be ok? Oh, ok.) but when you explain what you do it makes me more confident I can take care of my little trees and make them happy.
BTW, have you tried splicing two together, so it looks like two saplings that grew too close? That's my plan with two of my three apples. By my understanding, what you do is cut off the bark on the places that will grow together, then bind them with flower tape. Got any tips or tricks?
Great series on pruning Nigel.
Thank you for educating AND entertaining us!
Your clear explanations of why you cut gives me the courage to try basic shaping of my little Yew and Ash. Though, not sure if this is the right time of year. Should I wait until late winter/spring?
I would do the structural pruning late fall or early winter. This will give the wounds time to dry up before the sap flows in spring. As the new shoots grow in in spring, you can pinch or remove buds that you don't want, to further refine the shape.
@@TheBonsaiZone - Thank you.
First.........to watch the adverts. 😉
Waking up in the zone!
A nice way to start your day!
Nigel are you able to throw away your cuttings? Sometimes I can but seem to have yo try rooting one at least.
It is very hard, I have a lot of them sitting in my frog pond at the moment. Bonsai J took a few, but the rest may never get planted.
Hmm, my money tree only has leaves at the very top of the stems. Is that because I have too many stems in one pot or could it be because of light conditions? Not enough water?
If the money tree is kept outdoors in the summer and watered and fed well, it should grow very tall with lots of leaves before fall. I would switch to a bonsai soil, this will allow you to water and fertilize more often without much fear of root rot.
Very very nice video and information sir
Thank you!
Wow, yeah I dare say that's grown.(guava)
have you started filming with a different fps ?
This was ALL-I at 30 FPS. I used the Canon 35 mm RF lens with a variable density filter. I set the lens at F 1.8.
@@TheBonsaiZone your latest videos seem to drop fps, ive noticed in a couple of them
In my experience, Guava tree grows very slowly... in ficus I can see the changes in everyweek, but in the case of guava it looks same. I always think even if it is live or not...
hello i also have a ficus
They can grow faster than a Ficus if provided ideal conditions.
@@jewiesnew3786
Could you say what are the ideal conditions for guava tree?
Soil, temp, water etc.
Thanks
@@dinudavis4230 Tropical conditions, they grow really fast during the rainy season.
halo...my bother
good job
stay connected brother
I will, keep up the good work on your channel!
For the Guava, what are the reasons for not leaving the lower branch as a sacrificial branch?
I'm hoping to develop a scar free trunk to show off the bark. The tree has a lot of growing to do!
Thank you, Nigel.
Is the roof of the plant room repaired at this point? Hopefully so!
It should be fixed on the outside tomorrow, I still have to waterproof, insulate and put up the vapor barrier on the inside, then finally I can move the all the trees inside. I'm running a heater in the greenhouse at night. We haven't had frost yet, but it may come tonight.
🌲🌿🍀💕💚💚
Thoid!
Why do you lower your FPS?
Guayabo (Psidium guajava) - es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psidium_guajava
Hey nigel i want to start a bonsai, do you know a good tree for a beginner?
It all depends on your climate area too 😊
If it helps... it seems Ficus and Schefflera are good in inexperienced hands. Check out Nigel's playlists featuring those trees.
@@bonsaihigh i almost have the same climate as nigel has
Try boxwood usually easily found and very forgiving I'm from Canada too like Nigel they can as outdoor or indoor plants
like
Thank you!!
I notice you seldom use wiring. - Why not?
Here is a video on this!

Here we go Foist
So close Scott, 9 seconds between you and Mary!
Scott Argyle ... nice... it’s a hard pace to catch first!!!
@@maryshoemaker1437 ya the only racing i do is for Foist and on a Monday with only one cup of coffee I'm not up to your pace nicely done Marry
🌦️🍂🇩🇰👍
Hello Jan! Thanks!
Foist
Mary, the random stars have aligned and the outcome is in your favor, you are Foist!
Scott Winnard Let’s do Bonsai thanks Scott... it’s the best place for today, unless of course in Nigel’s randomness he posts a second video!!!
This is funny 😂 but good job
The Foist is what gives a jedi their power. It's an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us and lives within us; it binds the galaxy together.
0:14 whats the point of haveing so many trees ?
It's nice to have a lot of trees because many of them only need to be worked on twice a year while they are developing. This allows me to always have a tree that I can work on while the others are growing.
