  • Professional bonsai artist David Easterbrook transforms old Alder nursery stock into a bonsai.
    It's very uncommon to use this species of tree but the result is surprising.

    Besides the gorgeous trunk, my first thought was, "What is he going to do with THAT!" You didn't disappoint! Amazing content, David.

    Hi David, any chance you could make a video updating us on this tree and some of the other trees you've worked on in the past months? It'd be interesting to see their growth / current state! Love the content, please keep making videos!

    Yes, people tend to look for species traditionally used in bonsai but there are a lot of other species that can make a great bonsai.
    Like the result, you did a great job!

    Amazing! You are the first bonsai teacher to say it’s OK to prune deciduous trees this time of year. I had heard to never prune in Fall. I live in zone 5b in Montana, and our winters are pretty wild at times. If you leave that Alder out next winter in that beautiful pot, aren’t you afraid of damage???? Cracking from freezing??? Do you greenhouse any of your trees? Please do a video about over wintering in cold climates….it would be very helpful for us new to bonsai.
    Would love to see this tree next year after it’s repot and new growth, too!

    Underrated specie for bonsai. They grow like weeds! In a development stage you could grow them submerged in water.

    @David Easterbrook: Thxz so much for your informative vids. I'd be interested in the names of the types of tools you use so that we new to bonsai/penjing could get them ourselves if we feel the need to use them. If you were to create a list of these tools that you use in each vid n post them in your descriptions, that would be wonderful. TY for sharing your efforts n experiences!!

  • @davemirande8936

    Great job. Just wish all bonsai video artists clearly state what season (e.g. early mid late spring) along with their location and or zone they are working from. Saying "today" is not clear enough to know and it just says 2 years ago it was posted.

  • @brendancahill3376
    @brendancahill3376 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great demo David, but you will have to keep an eye on the wiring for scaring as Alders are such vigorous growers as i am sure you well know.

    @markwoodard4012 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Was wondering about that removal of the low branch and also the shortening of the leader. The lower branch removal could have been a sacrifice and that leader could be developed faster with more growth. Is it because of the vigor of that species?

      Hey James when I started practicing bonsai in the early 70s I was only 19 years old. No one in Montreal even knew what it was at the time. I could hardly find a book to have any idea where to begin. It doesn't matter if any of your friends practice it or not. If you're passionate about it you'll find a way and develop connections along the way

    Personally I would tape or “ protect “ the end of the cut wire , especially when you are swinging the wire towards your face , scary , safety first , careful …
    Love your videos with your detail explanation… cheers..
