    Fuji Cherry / prunus incisa kojo-no-mai is a fabulous tree for bonsai, particularly for relative newbies like myself. It has a very forgiving nature and tolerates hard pruning and severe root pruning. They look spectacular on flower in April/May. It also has a very predictable contorted twiggy growth habit that makes it suitable for clip and grow pruning, and also styling in an attractive windswept style. They appear to have become very much more accessible from garden centres for a reasonable price.

    The last tree is a stunner in the making, I would love to see it in a few years time. I like that you have given something of a progression of "starter to mature" tree. Could you do one of your signature twin trunk maples? I find it hard to see from the very start of a simple struck cutting, to an established tree. A series of one year, 2 years, 5 years etc would be great to see! (From an antipodean fan!)

    Hi Peter, I found this video extremely interesting and informative. Currently, I have a prebonsai of the Fujii Cherry Kojo no mai, and I have decided to cultivate it in a large pot for at least a couple of years so that it can grow properly before deciding what to do next. At the same time, I have already given it some movement by slightly tilting it. I hope to see more of your videos related to this species.

    • @peterchan3100
      @peterchan3100 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      There are not many fruit trees in Temperate zone which are suitable for bonsai. Ordinary Apple, Pears etc have fruit which are too large, so we use Crab Apple, Chinese Quince for bonsai. In Mediterranean climes Oranges and Lemons, Figs and Olives make good bonsai but we dont give them any special treatment. We grow these as well but they need protection in greenhouse in Winter - OK outdoors in Summer..

    I bought a sapling this summer and it took to wiring nicely and it is so robust. I hard pruned it 3 times and it even produced one flower. I re-potted it into a ceramic bonsai pot and as winter approached here in Colorado I put it out in the greenhouse for safe keeping. Raccoons got my last batch of trees but the temp fluctuates so much in the greenhouse that it could go from 6 degrees to 112 in a single day, much to my surprise. The branches are still flexible and to be perfectly frank, if it lives I will be elated. My question is how long of a dormancy do you think my tree needs in order to thrive

    Very informative and useful for me, as I started training two of these little Fuji Cherry for the first time this March. I already managed to kill one, just pruning after flowering and repotting. The other one though is thriving, I did just pruning and a bit of wiring, but left it in the same pot, hopefully next Spring repotting won't harm it. I'm looking forward to pruning new shoots which are already more than 10 cm long.
    Do you think I should wait a bit more, or prune them to 2-3 buds now?

      I lost one after pruning, but I left room for die back.... However, when I was dissecting the tree I found a wood boring beetle that had chewed into the twig I left to die. It chewed into the node and killed everything above it. Unfortunately the roots were still healthy, it might have re-budded. Oh well, I learned from it...
