Really love this twin trunk quince, I have to get one! Agree with your angle on the repotting, it gives it better movement and more character. I have a crepe myrtle in the garden, the trunk growth and thin bark is very similar to your quince. I've been thinking about air- layering it to make a bonsai but maybe I should just leave that where it is and get a quince. I don't know. Nice video anyway! 😊👍
Thank you very much indeed 😊 I love it, Ken at Windybank Bonsai really has a great eye, I think you'll really like some of the other trees I've had from him, I can't wait for you to see them 😊 Crepe Myrtle make beautiful bonsai too, I understand your dilemma. The Quince bark is quite unique, I don't think the flaking would ever refine and scale down though, you have to accept and appreciate it for what it is.
Very nice tree. I just got my first Chinese quince a couple months ago from a friend that had grown a bunch in the ground. It’s not looking so hot but I’m hoping it starts pushing out new growth soon
Hi Ben thank you so much 😁 Yeah the first few months after digging up an in-ground tree is probably the most delicate for it. I wish you lots of luck with it. How have you planted it? In a training box, deep pot or straight into a bonsai container?
Ken at Windybank Bonsai in Surrey had lots more when I visited just before the lockdown. He doesn't do online sales, you have to visit, but oh my gosh it's so worth it 😍
I just started bonsai or i planted some trees in big pots 12years ago and started training them and are just now starting to repot em and are finding out how hard it is to get myself to cut em in to bonsai i love every part of my small trees and i cant cut em
I completely understand, you invest so much time in them, the fear of making a mistake is real. If they give you joy as potted trees, why not leave them as they are and try experimenting on a tree or shrub from a local garden centre or nursery. I've learnt so much from working with nursery stock, it's very beneficial, and your attachment and investment is far less than with a specimen tree.
Great decision to change that planting angle. It's a really pretty tree you can be proud of!
Enjoyed this
Nice quince
Bet the other one was Herons
You might just be right 😉xx And thank you for taking the time to comment, I really appreciate it xx

Wow that's a great quince tree! I've been hunting for a nice one but the larger specimen prices are outrageous.

Your theme music sounds like a Beatles rift....very interesting.
