- Today I'm working on my Mistletoe Ficus (Ficus deltoidea), It's first styling and re potting.
I meet Kale for the first time in person and we work on his Parrot's Beak (Gmelina philippensis) and his Cotoneaster bonsai.

Thank you Nigel for all the advice, patience and guidance! It was such a wonderful experience to visit the Bonsai Zone. I hope there are many more in the future.
Great job Kale & Nigel! Amazing to finally see the mistletoe ficus start it’s journey to becoming a bonsai! 🐦💙
Thanks Jay, I hope we see it develop into a really nice tree!!! Thanks for the present!!
Train in the background and the crunching of the feet in the snow, cool sound effects.
Well done Kale and Nigel…especially with the “Here we goes” and “Just like that’s” on the big cuts.
Thanks Derrick, we had fun!!
What a wonderful bonsai community you are a part of. Nice work Kale. Thanks, keep growing
I think Kale did a great job with his presentation and on his trees. Great of you to steer him in the right direction. Your Ficus looks amazing. Sounds like Laura is building something in the background.
Yes, Laura is taking apart the giant skids we dragged home!! Thanks Alice!!
Blue Jay Bonsai on Ficus Friday. Cool!
That was a nice planting session with Kale. Nice looking trees that will develop after the repotting.
No way! I got gifted that species you guys repotted like a month ago they’re amazing and the clipping are great at rooting
Nice to see Kale and be able to put a face to the name (and Hyperion Hellios) and congrats on being a prize draw winner. 👍
Thanks! 😁 Kale is a super guy!!
You’re always willing to try your techniques on different species. I dig that about you, Nigel!
That root work was a lot of fun. I thought there would be a lot more when you first dug it out, especially with that much fruit. It’ll be fun to see how it responds. Thanks for sharing the adventure(s) with us!
Thanks Yeti!
Nice root pruning and the rocks holding up the tree makes the tree look like the seed fell between 2 boulders and grew. Neat!!!
Ay!! What a surprise to see Kale on here!
It was great meeting him!!
Interesting species and a nice display of individual design choice - one of the great things about bonsai!
Nice to meet Kale, seems like a passionate guy
Kale is a pro! "Big cut comin' up!" Thanks for sharing.
Nice looking trees that will grow well after a pot change.
Hi, have a great day..... watching here thank you for sharing this awesome video
Sorry that Ficus Friday was a little delayed everyone. I think that was my doing swinging by.
I don't think we minded one bit Kale. As I told Nigel your presentation was very good. And the video was very interesting. Thank you
Cool!! Neat leaves on that ficus. Wonderful how you share your knowledge!
Great Job on the mentoring Nigel 😀
Another instructive and interesting video from you, Nigel... Thanks for that
Great video sorry I missed the premiere. Great work Kale and the ficus looks fantastic Nigel. Love ficus Friday.
Wow hardcore bonsai !!!
hi nigel, thank you for all the wonderful information in your videos. as a newbie, i am accumulating as much info as i can before spring here in Oz. ficus and jade grow really well here, so i am practising on them. you have helped me decide to be brave with my trimming, and i am also using some of the techniques on plants in the ground. also i am gathering unusual plants to try as well. i am looking forward to years of 'playing'. i also have the advantage of mild winters so no need for a hothouse - more a greenhouse for protection in summer.
Amazing as always! Great work!
Interesting pruning of the cotoneaster. The big cut is a good lesson. I really liked Kale's other plant; the leaves were lovely. All around good lesson on what to do with roots; when there are two circles of roots and how to decide. Think the round bonsai pot is a good choice for your mistletoe plant. I've never seen one before. Thank you so much for this Nigel.
Great video! So nice to see you work together with Kale.
That pot is stunning!
Yes indeed!!
Good video with Kale's visit. Like the Gmelina that he selected. They grow very well as garden plants here in southeast Florida. Hope that he will get it to flower. They have very unique flowers. These plants are also called Parrot's beak. Can you guess why? Since you like the mistletoe fig you might want to consider adding a ficus triangularis to your collection as well. Thanks for another interesting video.
Big cuts!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge so kindly with others Nigel! Wonderful transformation on cotoneaster Kale, they are such nice species to grow
I have a ficus deltoidea bonsai. Trunk chop it today to get taper.. So now i got a stick in a pot 🤣Wise to cut the friut off. But it stil a real slow grower. But it helps.
Another great video Nigel I see the snow is melting ..I had chance to do my first grass cut for this year spring is here in the UK ..
I wonder if Kale can give you a cutting of the Parrot's Beak and try sprouting the roots in a root maker pot to develop the roots a bit better. Just a thought.
The snow gets less and less with every video 😄
It's almost gone, but more on the way!
The figs on the Mistle Toe Fig, just think poison. Don't eat or even try. Super big Fig. Mine fruit about 3 times a year.
Espetacular Nigel, qual essa espécie de Ficus ? beautiful!!
I love ficus friday xD
Thanks Daniel!
i hope i don't miss you nigel at 5pm at tropical exp... i will bring you something a gift that i made see ya at 5pm
See you there Percy!!!
Beautiful tree. Would definitely love to see the updates on this one.
Will do!
hi nigel. I have a green island ficus, it is always covered in figs but they grow very tight to the base of new leaves, I usually pick them off but worry that I'm damaging the new buds .
Hola Señor Saunders, disculpe la molestia,
Solo quería saber que pasó con este ficus, la verdad es muy bonito y uno de mis favoritos
Saludos,
Secoind

Scott has stepped into the Foist Zone!!!!
Foist the moist this week? 🤷🏼♀️🤔🧐😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
I thought you were gonna start a kale 🥬 bonsai in this vid lol…
I'd do that too!!! Lol!
@@TheBonsaiZone that’d be a hoot! They do get a bit of a stalk by the end of summer. If they can stay alive for multiple years (with protection from cold) it might actually work, 😂
👍👌🍎
