- Graham Potter of www.kaizenbonsai.com/ demonstrates advanced pruning, styling and maintenance of a beautiful old mature juniper created in Scotland 30 to 40 years ago. Learn how to keep juniper foliage compact, develop ramification and balance vigour. Invaluable insight into the long term development and maintenance of these popular bonsai evergreens.
There are hundreds of cultivars of bonsai but here Graham is looking at soft foliage types.
Styling junipers without wire is a long process but it produces a very beautiful natural appearance rarely seen. Only 7 pieces of wire were used in this transformation.

Thanks, Graham, this was extremely clear and detailed - very useful and very much appreciated.
A massive thank you for taking the time to share this, very clear and informative. Thanks again !! 👍👍👍
The way is clear with time no job is ever done with speed thanks graham
After messing with plants for 20 years, I finally understand how to properly improve my junipers. Thank you
Glad to see you still creating videos!
One of the best explanations on Juniper pruning that I have seen...and beautiful styling!!!
Dear Sir,I am a great fan of your work and I like the old videos you made long ago🤘
You are an outstanding artist in the Bonsaicommunity
Thank you so much for your work and beeing and Idol an a big inspiration over the years🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️
Thanks for this Graham. I've been waiting years for such a clear and detailed explanation of how to maintain and develop junipers.
This guy is a genius. I love his videos
Superb explanation, I learned so much, thank you. Would love you to do a needle juniper video.
The crown looked like a head of broccoli! LOL Gorgeous tree!! Beautiful job!!
Beautiful work Graham, I'm glad that you're back..
Fantastic video - great to get info on established trees - thank you
Great to see another Kaizen video. Very informative.
I appreciate these videos so much.
Graham,
I recognize the time effort and potential frustration of making videos on TH-cam.
Your contribution makes the world a better place.
Thank you,
Mats Hagstrom
Looks great! Ur a legend! More content please!
Wow!!! Thatz an amazing tree, wonderful job on it. Really appreciate ur work videos, u truly are a master of bonsai. cheers!!!
Thank you for this. I watch every video of yours because I know I will actually learn good techniques and timings that I can then practice in my own little backyard. Junipers still remains a challenging species for me despite all of my 'so called' experience. Thank you :)
The difference between the crowns was amazing , great work
Thank you so much for still doing these fantastic videos. I have been watching (also a very happy customer) for years, you're amazing!
Awesome video mate.
Brilliant! A needle juniper next please ;)
Love the content mate. Keep them coming!!
You are a legend my friend
Excellent video, thanks a lot. I would love to see one for needle junipers
What a great lesson thanks Graham 👊👊
Great to watch a new video from you. Love your explanation and the tree looks fantastic. Looking forward to seeing more in the future 😀
Thanks so much for sharing once again. It's fantastic, if not the best explanation I've watched. A great transformation that must have taken so so many hours, but has moved the tree in the right direction.
Great video as always. I have been struggling with my junior chinensis it's healthy but with fuliage like this one and I have one like the sparse one. Now I have a better plan to fix them.
Excellent tutorial, well done on simplifying juniper maintenance
Lovely work on a gorgeous tree!
EXCELENTE EXPLICACION...... POR FAVOR, TRADUCIR AL ESPAÑOL SI FUERA POSIBLE... FELICITACIONES SEÑOR POTTER... SALUDOS DESDE ARGENTINA
Just great video as always .✌️
impressive
あなたの経験を共有してくれてありがとう、あなたはとても細心の注意を払って思慮深い人です。

Nice
Thank you Graham for this clear and concise explanation of juniper pruning. It provides invaluable information in such an easy format to follow. I assume the correct technique for 'needle type' juniper is slightly different. Is there any chance you could also explain about it?
great to see you again!:) been watching for ages now!:) One question if i may: how long can you work on a tree? i tend to work on mines once a year in early spring and try to do the pruning and repotting in one day to minimise the stress for the tree. However it's sometimes stressful to do all the work in one day so i was wondering if i can split it up in multiple days and if there's a better order like first prune for two days then repot or the other way around:) Thank you for a possible answer and keep up the great work!:) always happy to see new work form you:)
Trees don't feel stress like we do. Typically the stress happens after we got involved. Go little by little with a light touch always and choose your timing to maximise the result for the good of the tree. Always depends upon what you are working too.
@@GrahamWPotter Thank you very much for the answer:) So i can prune lightly for like one week or so? and then the next week repot it if needed?:)
❤
One thing I'm a little confused by is whether we should allow the back budding, which is essentially crotch growth to develop in certain situations so we can cut back to them? Everywhere tells you to clean out crotch growth
How different is the technique for needle juniper? I would like to see a video on this topic, thank you!
The same but it looks different in your hands.
The implication of pruning the growth the way you have is it will likely produce stronger back bidding. Will you ever reduce the length of the long leggy branches to where the back bidding occurs or will you always clean out the back buds?
I thought i was plain we never cut out back buds. They are always used to replace the little branches that are getting too long.
👍👌🙂
Hey Graham! Can you revisit the first trees you worked long time ago, like the taxus or the nice quercus suber?
Most were sold and i'm starting again.
@GrahamWPotter happy to hear about it but sad at the same time! I was imagining a video revisiting those old ones. Thank you for your reply mate!
Thanks for the information,great explanation for someone new.
How long did it take for whole tree ?
Two weeks on and off. Trying to film it all on my own sucks and really kills the vibe.
The spiky is juvenile foliage I thought?
Some varieties only have spiked foliage.
Ye Got a nice Brokkoli,Sir😂
Graham what ever happened to Romone your apprentice
Interesting. Shrub if planted in ground. Bonsai if planted in pot. Same plant.
Some insight you have there fella.
You should have an American or European hobby, rather than an Asian one, dear. Carry on… 🌺
What a ridiculous comment.
@@SecwetGwiwer 🤔🧐😒
The Oracle speaketh.
Bonsai may have originated over there but it belongs to the world now. Just because something is difficult why should I chuck away my life's work? I am neither American or a European any more than my bonsai is Asian.
Thank you! And for improved sound style too))) Watching your work I not only learn more but am like doing by your hands)). Very satisfactory. Thank you!
