Interesting channel. I just caught your talk *"What kills bonsai in winter?"* I lost my favorite tree a few days ago. I'm new to bonsai but had attempted the hobby 25 years ago. I got too eager and collected trees before educating myself and failed miserably..I'll be looking in and thanks!
@@GrowingBonsai It was a tiny tree but was full of life...I'm waiting for the weather so I can explore the mountains for rock but won't collect trees unless they're in harms way....thanks for responding! I'll be tuning in!
Wow that was so cool❤ thank you so much. Just started some of my own. I just love them. Great video 👍 new subscriber just came from short. This is my 1st video😁 can hardly wait to learn more 💞from Mississippi
That's an incredibly characterful tree now; aggressive, almost like a vampire hunter drove a stake into the ground and it started growing. Lovely work, Jelle.
Echt heel mooi geworden die lariks. Heel mooi gestyled. En dat dood hout....mooi en functioneel. Dood hout om dood hout hoeft van mij niet maar dit doet echt iets goeds met het ontwerp. Kortom mooie video, en leerzaam. Ik ga ook wat vaker een schets maken van te voren. Mijn complimenten 👍👍
LoL and I repotted the thick challenge larch yesterday 😅 Yours fits visually really well in the oval bowl, only that I find the feet a little too high! See you next weekend in the Bonsai Center Münsterland on Hai Yama Ten? Glück Auf
:) Wat not planning on going there. But maybe should. When will you be there? } The pt it not great, agreed. I WAS not planning on keeping it, but I think it has grown on my.
For larch quite long. It is a bit of a challenge as they want to go back their original shape. I will leave it on as long as I dare, till MAX 1/2 of the wire is swallowed by the expanding branch. Then the scarring is minimal. Typically I expect mid-summer to reach this point, if I do not fertilize a lot. Most of the time this means a full rewire is needed and another seaon of growth to get the branches to really hold their shape..
Absolutely love that tree now. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and time. You have opened my eyes to alot of great perspective I didn't have before 👍👍 I like that hook tool you have were do I get one and what is it called?
So nice of you! I think I did exactly what I hopes to do with my videos, inspire people to try and go one step further. A lot can be done with fairly basic material. I am not sure what the tool is. I got it from Japan, I think Matsu: www.bonsaiplaza.com/en/12451-multipurpose-bonsaitrunk-splitter.html
Well spotted. I am in doubt. I left them long to increase thickness a little faster. Buuut.. I now actually like the very wide design for this tree. Makes it look a little different!
@@andrewbeattie5245 We'll see. I will let it grow for a bit, see how it fills out and over time thin out the canopy. This is just a first setup, which rarely is the final image :)
That was a fantastic change! I yelled "GET YOUR HAND OUT OF THERE!" At the computer!! Because you might get burned. My husband and children put their hands in their pockets and the dog left the area.... Oops.
@@-JotaBe- Yeah, hybrids make life dificult. IO think hybrid flowers have traces of red in them, whereas the full japanese have absolutely green flowers. This -if I recall correctly- has green flowers. So I am sticking to Japanese, although in day to day growing it makes little difference (Buut.. Japanese are stronger growers in my region)
THe opening steps are clips from the main video. I find that people do not have a huge attention span and people watch more of the video if you give a little preview. Annoying to some, needed for others :(

Wow what a transformation
:) Thank you. It did take a few hours to create!
Eine sehr harmonische Gestaltung deiner Lärche. Gefällt mir ausgesprochen gut. Und auf deine neue Zange bin ich schon ein wenig neidisch.😊
Tut mir leidt. Diese ist wirklich meins!
I love the tree, but the moss is noteworthy in it's artistry!
❤ You noticed huh :)
Definitely added to the tree by taking away.
:D
nice, you must be happy with that.
Very! I am even tempted to keep this one for myself!
Pretty nice tree and good video format showing the changes over time.
Thanks! Happy to hear you enjoyed that :D
Incredible transformation and great insight on the trunk tapering.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Looking great Jelle! 🙂👍
Thank you 😁 Happy with it!
One day I should come to Sweden and see what great Larches you must have there!
amazing skill
❤
I like what you did. Turn a problematic tree into a beauty. 👍
Thank you so much!
great job
Thank you Jeremy!
So nice
So nice :)
Beautiful tree
Thank you so much 😊
Amazing Larch ! Very cool thx for showing us 👍
:) Thank you for watching !
Looks fantastic Jelle
The transformation is spot on.
That tree will be a trophy winner one day. 👍👍👍
Hope so! But I am afraid it will not make the mark for the trophy :(
@@GrowingBonsai from where I’m sitting you definitely will get the trophy dude 👍👍
Amazing work on this Jelle! It looks pretty solid even only with 2 main branches.
Thanks a ton! I was happy with it too!
Nice video nice shape tree thank s jelle keep up the good work mate
Thank you too
Excellent Jelle! Really nice, dude.😊
Thank you so much!
Great work!!
Thank you so much!

Ooohw.. That is such a sad situation. Upsite: Space for a new tree?

Welcome to Growing Bonsai then! I have been a bit slack in responding to comments. I do hope you have managed to see a few more!
Love the new redesign with the wiring of the remaining branches❤
Me too!
That is so inspiring Jelle 😍 Love your Larch. 🤩🙋♀️ Martina
Thank you! 🤗
That's an incredibly characterful tree now; aggressive, almost like a vampire hunter drove a stake into the ground and it started growing. Lovely work, Jelle.
Well said! Thank you so much!
Looking Good Jelle , you look really proud and so you should be .. thank you for sharing
Thank you so much! Glad you liked it!
Wow!
Finally a larch 💓 thanks so much he is so cool . great Jelle 🙂🤗
Thank you too! GLad you like it!

Dank je wel! Blij dat het bevalt!
Excellent rebuild on that Jelle. I like it a lot. I definitely need to get one of those mini blow torches though!
You should! They are the torches used in cooking, for say Creme Brulee!
@@GrowingBonsai Do you get a free creme brulee thrown in if you buy one :)
Gave boom Jelle 👌
Dankjewel!

The pt it not great, agreed. I WAS not planning on keeping it, but I think it has grown on my.
Created gem out of virtually nothing 👌
Thank you so much!
Looks very good. I have the same problem with my Larch. Top died.
Sounds like a fun day of wiring ahead!
🔥🔥🔥
❤
Great video jelle, I learn so much from your Channel.
How long does the wire stay on for to set the branches ?
2:00 that protection from 🤣
Hahaha, yeah, just realized I should give the right example even though I am not too concerned normally.
looks super cool, for how long do you keep the wires on?
For larch quite long. It is a bit of a challenge as they want to go back their original shape. I will leave it on as long as I dare, till MAX 1/2 of the wire is swallowed by the expanding branch.

Very nice redesign, do you think you will be shortening the branches in future?
Well spotted. I am in doubt. I left them long to increase thickness a little faster. Buuut.. I now actually like the very wide design for this tree. Makes it look a little different!
@@GrowingBonsai i agree, maybe just a little more separation between the levels of the long branches?

👍👌👌🙂🙂

Hi, a better look know 👍Is it european or japanese?regards from barcelona
The branches have a reddish tone, which is indicative of the japanese larch. The european has more yellowish young bark
@@GrowingBonsai sometimes also the hybrids. I saw at least male flowers. Did it produce cones?Mine has at least 16 years and never did one cone 😭
@@-JotaBe- Yeah, hybrids make life dificult. IO think hybrid flowers have traces of red in them, whereas the full japanese have absolutely green flowers. This -if I recall correctly- has green flowers. So I am sticking to Japanese, although in day to day growing it makes little difference (Buut.. Japanese are stronger growers in my region)
@@GrowingBonsai Interesting, I didn’t know the differences in the flowers…can you identify the flower bud from the leaf bud before they start to open?
I would have guessed you pic up a dog and then its a cat🐈
Haha, picking up a bernadiner like that would be a challenge to my back!
FOIST
Nope. Second. :)
Please slow down, you went through the opening steps so fast I blinked and missed most of it.
Your remark comes across as rude.
Check your settings and slow down to .75 playback speed. See if that works better for you. I always put x2 for the wiring parts.
THe opening steps are clips from the main video. I find that people do not have a huge attention span and people watch more of the video if you give a little preview. Annoying to some, needed for others :(
