    Thank you for showing your amazing trees, lots of collectors don’t want people to know that some of their trees were bought recently so it is refreshing that you are happy to show trees that you have not had long but you make them your own by studying them make changes to satisfy your creative choices. We look forward to your future videos of the same trees t different periods of the years.

    Thanks for your passion in the world of bonsia. I don't garden like I used to as MS keeps me close to the house where I can cool off easily. I hate MS. It drains your energy and y😢and you have to be aware of when to quit. Bonsai helps me stay closer to home and I can work on my porch or bring it to the table and work there. I apologize for rambling on your videos are so inspiring that I am sharing this with my brother who is going to make a Bonsia plant stand for my bay window. Thanks again for all you do

    Thank you for the tour of your masterpieces. It was lovely to see your trees. I like your philosophy of going with nature rather than trying to impose our own designs on it. I think it will always be more rewarding to do that rather than fight against it for ever.
    Best wishes 🇦🇺

  • @lisawagner6076

    I just watched this again. Such gorgeous trees!! Are your trees always in the shade? I have 2 places I can keep my bonsai trees in my yard. I have direct sun along the back of my house, but I also have a lot of trees over by the back fence. I have very lovely shady spots to keep them. I hope they can live in shade. 25 years ago my husband and I moved our family of 5 from NJ to NC. He had just gotten a job with Ralph so it is a little funny to me that you have the stone tables. 19 years later he was let go because old Ralpie wanted "NEW" talent! There is no employer loyalty anymore. Instead of a nice watch to thank you for 20 years of service, instead they get rid of you at 19 years. Those tables are serving a better purpose now! They look great in your garden. I hope you do another tour like this soon.

    • @bonsaiheirloom
      @bonsaiheirloom  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I keep all my trees in full sun. Only in partial shade when I did drastic root work. Partial shade is also good for most trees…deep shape is less desirable.
      Company strives for profit…so we just have to make continuous improvements to renovate. Many people become independent contractors and do well. Wishing you success!

    I would like to thank you. For sharing your immense knowledge so freely.
    I would also like to say, that I love the way you can use your "minds eye" and see how things should / could progress.
    I am not very artistic, and find it to be my down fall in many things. So I always appreciate people who have vision, and creativity to match.
    Your love for bonsai just oozes and I am grateful.
    Thank you.

      Thank you for such kind words! Bonsai is just one type of art form. I like to call bonsai living art. You can find what works for you. With more practice and patience, you can develop your artistic eye and craft a bonsai to your artistic vision.

    An amazing collection sir! You are quite the caretaker. One of my favorite tools; I bought a Lazy Susan and glued it to a large pot watering dish turned upside down, then attached it to a bench. It allows me to easily view the tree I'm working on from all possible angles with a slow and steady twist without damaging the pot or tree. food for thought. 8)

    Amazing. Any one of those trees is a prize. I enjoy your review of your work and paths for continuous improvement. You blew my mind when talking about air layering on 100s year old trees. Thanks for the shift in perspective. I would never have considered such an option until this video.

    I am 31 and I have been doing bonsai for about 3 years now. I have amassed around 40 trees, several yamadori. I am more along the tropical trees side of the spectrum. I enjoy your channel and philosophies you share. Do you have more tropicals in your collection or do you favor conifers more?

    • @bonsaiheirloom
      @bonsaiheirloom  ปีที่แล้ว

      I gave my old bougainvillea to a dear friend, so I do not have any tropical at this point although I have a hughes (about 12 inch across at the base) against a wall. It is incredible when it is in bloom. I use locally available material that are good for our local area (Zone 7). I look to bonsai as a hobby for pleasure, not for challenges. We do have frost here in some years.

    The bonsai garden is absolutely amazing and your artifacts that you have collected spread throughout the trees bring you a sense of calm as you describe your styling of each tree.
    I only wish that some day my trees look as beautiful as yours with grace and poise.
    It’s a sense of relaxation between you and your trees to become one as you work on them.
    Thank you for sharing I look forward to seeing your other videos.

I love this dreamy dragon like look and your clip and grow method.

    Your trees on the rock remind me of the trees on Huang Shan Mountain in Anhui Province. I saw a lot of them while climbing the 10,000 steps up to the top where the temple is. I think your trees are influenced stylistically a lot by Penjing, more so than the Japanese Bonsai aesthetic. You don't have any Podocarpus macrophyllus in your collection? They are a very popular Bonsai/Penjing subject in Taiwan. It is too cold for me to keep them here but I imagine they would do well in California.

    • @bonsaiheirloom
      @bonsaiheirloom  ปีที่แล้ว

      YES! Precisely! That bonsai was inspired by my memorable trip to Huangshan. An abstract recreation. People miss the point when they criticize the tree as too large relative to the rock…Well, it is an abstraction! You’ve proved my premise. That is what bonsai is all about! :)
      I do not have Podocarpus although it is a favorite bonsai in Canton and Hong Kong because the name of the tree in Chinese implies a good god. So it is sometimes referred to as a money tree…I only know dollars!

The older leaf isnt as nice to eat. The hawthorns are everywhere in Ireland. I love the white flower on them and later in the year the red berry looks great too

    Nice video Milton, I like your calm approach and explanations. I feel Peter Chan although he does experiments, is much more “do this do that” and has passive micro aggressions to staff and viewers about trees in videos rather than “try this,try that, see how it works out and there could be something interesting” is what I get from you.

    Thank you for sharing your collection. Beautiful trees. I was wondering why you don’t place moss in your pots? Is it because it’s easier to check moisture without it?

    • @bonsaiheirloom
      @bonsaiheirloom  ปีที่แล้ว

      I do, but I pay more attention during the wet months here, which will be winter time. Some bonsai I have do have great moss and that’s because they have a little more sandy loam on top with chicken manure pellets.
      This is a tip if you want your moss green all year round--add a layer of top soil with chicken manure pellets to make it particularly moist!

    How do you make the trunks the way they are? They look like they’ve been struck by lightning.
    The one that you’ve had the longest looks like it’s been cut open and a branch pushed into the hole 13:43

    • @bonsaiheirloom
      @bonsaiheirloom  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you! To create that contrast in the bark, I create jins (deadwood) by peeling off the outer layer of bark. In an upcoming video, I will show you how to create that "lightning" look on a Hatanaka Juniper. Please stay tuned!

  • @Cityslicker112
    @Cityslicker112 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thank you for sharing. You have a really nice philosophy on Bonsai.
    As a small point of critique, your trees look very dry. You have explained about the clogging of the drip lines and it seems that this is the case with a lot of them.
    Nevertheless, thank you for the video!

    • @bonsaiheirloom
      @bonsaiheirloom  ปีที่แล้ว

      The soil may appear dry on top, but is always kept moist where the roots are. The drip line will only water the spot where the holes are…and that may be the reason the soil appears dry on the surface. Then, the moisture spreads out by osmosis down the pot. The proof is in the pudding.
      If you are referring to the tree itself, my bonsai grows very quickly, filled with leaves 4-6 weeks after severe clipping. This is my subtractive-and-additive clipping technique. That has worked well for me. What you see are usually soon after pruning so they look tidy.

    • @bonsaiheirloom
      @bonsaiheirloom  ปีที่แล้ว

      Making jins (dead wood) is a great way to make your bonsai look more interesting. You do this by removing the outer bark layer to reveal the inner hardwood. Check out this video at timestamp 13:15 to learn how to do it: th-cam.com/video/FgppY9IqiNE/w-d-xo.html
