- In this video I show how to perform branch selection on a well established bonsai to control the growth and taper. Additionally, I repot into a smaller pot that provides better contrast with the color of the bark and foliage
Taper, Taper, Taper ! 👍
Glad to see your New Video's ! 🤙
@@nelson517 lol. Exactly !!

Great tree you have there! Thanks for taking us along on this tree's journey.
Nice work Paul, it's going to be so much better now! Lots of work sorting out the branches and the roots. A very beautiful tree!!

@@damonjones1291 thank you so much!
Damn dude, this is worthy of many reviewings prior to major branch work. At first it looked like a lost tree. Trunk chop it and hope for better days. But you revealed the developed bonsai within 👍. Excellently done.
That is so kind of you to say thank you so much. I’m so glad that I was able to bring that tree back from the brink. I haven’t been so lucky with a few of my trees and had to go back and grow some new branches and tops. I really appreciate your feedback to reassure I made some right decisions.
wonderful to see a new video
Thank you !!
I just wanted to leave a comment letting you know how helpful your channel has been. You have some amazing content and hope you keep up the good work. I have one questions however; I recently bought a Brazilian rain tree and was going to repot it in a 3 gallon nursery pot to allow it to grow, do you have any recommendations on what soil to use within this pot?
Thank you so much for your kind comment, I really appreciate it. As for the BRT I also put mine years ago into a larger pot to allow the trunk to thicken. If it’s already in a bonsai soil I would keep it in that for the larger pot. However if it’s in a potting mix, that would do very well. Unlike placing a bonsai into a bonsai pot where we work to increase the feeder roots, the long running roots in a potting mix will help that truck thicken quicker since they increase in size much faster Good luck and thank you for watching 😊
Beautiful tree, what is the tool kit that you are using?
@@theforce3241 thank you! The tools are those that I accumulated through the years. All are Joshua Roth brand and carbon steel. In the videos I I use my shears, root rake and concave cutters
