- I'm working on my tiny bonsai trees! I start with the Komono size, then the Shohin size and finally my Mame size bonsai.
Today's update is my Ficus Ginseng Bonsai.
for a split second i actually thought you had some sort of bonsai monk who judged your pruning lol
Is that a bonsai bonsai??😂
They sit on his shoulders and wear opposite colored robes, wispering in his ears.
This guy is the Bob Ross of Bonsai. I love it!
Certainly i felt the same....
I love your pots! Now I want a 3D printer so I can start making bonsai pots!
You can tell that this guy has a passion for bonsai. And the culture
Thank you, I do really like miniature trees!
Hi Nigel . I'm so glad you worked on the small trees in this video. I have a few mames most of them 1" . My favourite category followed by shohin. Can't wait for spring so that I can to a bit of root pruning. Your trees as usual are wonderful
Thank you Mandie, the tropical Ash trees are still growing well and I'll have to do some work on them soon!
Love seeing your smaller trees. I look forward to seeing your updates.
Thanks so much!
That monk looked so real that I first thought it was a real person... Wall-e did look a bit distressed that you cut all the leaves from his tree. ;) Oh, I want to plant trees now! :-)
yeah it is quite creepy how realistic it looks
The monk his name is Great Master Luang Pu Sodh Candasaro best known by his miracles, prophecies and super-natural healing powers in Thailand th-cam.com/video/gPdnmtF21G8/w-d-xo.html

yes, it does look odd...
Love the longer videos! I've been missing seeing you about every other day. lol I find myself wanting to work on my few starts of trees everyday! ...but I just water & watch them and work on my patience. I can't wait for the day I have enough trees to work on something every day or so! Also, I'm finding there is MUCH more to Bonsai than meets the eye. I'm so thankful you share the finer bits of information. For sure...I learn something new every time I watch a video. Thank you, Nigel, for always sharing a little something else.
Bonnie Hyden , right, im still working on the right soil mix, so till then i have some nursery material, and so some seedlings waiting on the right conditions
And Nigel is great for sharing this. Been watching these videos for just over a year, but have seen it grow. Sometimes its unchecked questions that can be read about, but Nigel will answer us. And continues to. Thank you Nigel, sincerely, Dylan Tyler
satanlovesmemoreable I’ve been using the soul mix Nigel suggests and it seems to be very good for my few trees. So far all I have is a shrub I dug up from the yard (sorry, I’ve not taken the time to identify) and some jade plants. Oh! And a Yaupon I dug up from the yard before hubby cut it down. I’m getting my trees mainly from the woods around us.
Bonnie Hyden , that mix seems prime, but a little pricey for me atm. I have found a albino oak seedling i collected, being it was on a busy fishing trail. Im happy with looking for my yamadori and coming back when im ready, doing some trimming and training
This has been my week for second hand finds . A legit earthen ware w k wang bonsai pot and two nice little ones, but one is glazed on the inside
Great Cedar...Love this tree...Looking forward to future episodes with it...Thanks...
Thanks for watching!
Now how did I miss this video? Time to sit back and learn. Never to old to learn.
the carving you did on your ginseng ficus healed great can't even tell it was carved. great video man.
Really excited for your monk forest
Thanks nigel. learning alot from you. I had understood mame. But didn't knew what shohin means. I thought it's just another word for bonsai itself. Didn't knew it's all about different size of bonsai.
Re-watching and enjoying as much as i did the first time!!
That last tree that carving looks very good 😍
Nigel, superb work as usual. Trees are developing nicely, especially that Ficus in the 3D-printed pot. Keep up the good work mate.
I love the tiny trees! I live in an apartment so all my trees are pretty small. I got a bougainvillea recently and am so excited for it to look as nice as yours!
Thank you, I hope it grows well for you!
I was thinking about your broken pot issue some more. Thin ceramic ware will crack in winter simply because water expands when it freezes. So I was thinking that all your thin walled ceramic pots should be vacated in winter, taking out the tree and putting the base where the roots are in a plastic bag surrounded by yard leaves and let them sit out the winter in a plastic bag surrounded by leaves. Or you may want to experiment and take a thin walled ceramic pot and put the whole pot in a plastic bag and put leaves over it. and tie it up good. For extra assurances, you may want to add a layer of insulation around the pot for winter. Just wrap the insulation around it. The problem is that it rains and then freezes, so it is important rain water doesn't get in the pot during winter. The best bet would be to take the plant out of the pot, protect the root ball with leaves and a plastic bag. A lot of work, I know. Just a suggestion.
Well this was nice to come in from pruning my acacia farnesiana and bursera fagaroides and see you've posted a video...Cool!
All the trees are looking great! The printed pot plantings have really come along nicely, was also good to see your bougainvillea bonsai again.
Thank you J, slowly getting better!
Love these tiny tree's. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
nice videos nigel, you really remind me a bit of bob ross how calming is the atmosfere of your videos is! i subscribed, i also love plants!
Thank you, welcome to the Bonsai Zone!
Blessings to all from all!
We will each have our own time when we awaken, understand, and connect with the inevitable. All of our paths are different yet similar, and that’s amazing. We should find comfort in our diversities and similarities, not allow them to pull us apart. Enjoy every facet or complication of life, for it has its place for some reason. Acknowledge everything and be aware of all things, for a biased mind is unjust.
Justice is equality and Justice is what this model of reality lacks. Most of all, just appreciate it, be thankful for your ability to think and perceive thought, it’s quite amazing for it has enabled us to create realities with dimensions we desire. Awaken to what you are and fail to acknowledge, we are this and more. Hence our disagreements with what is truth. Be thankful for all that you’ve got, because it will eventually be gone. Anyone that see this, you are so much more than what you think. I love you for acknowledging that! ✝️☮️🕉☯️✡️☪️☸️🎰♾
Blessings from all from to all!
all these trees look very promising. Will await to watch updates next year.
Nice video, nice cut, nice pot, nice pipal, nice jade, nice Nigel.
Nice comment
I've learned so much on your video sir 😊 keep teaching us.
From 🇵🇭
Thank you James!
The bougainvillea is gorgeous.
Ashwin Mascarenhas camnt agree more!
I wouldnt mind a longer version without skipping through the pruning process. Love seeing cuts
Trees, pots & stands looking good 👍
someone reuploaded your video - th-cam.com/video/Cm82D4de43g/w-d-xo.html
All that I see is master's work!!! 🙏
Thank you Sanjay!
I love all your trees and enjoy watching your videos. I have learned so much from you. Keep posting! Love to learn more about Bonsai
Thank you for watching, I enjoy making the videos, lots more to come!
Thank you for this Nigel!
sorry for any spam on recent videos, I’m just worried about my juniper because the leaves are very hard and some of the bark and leaves look dried up. I’m worried it’s dying on me and idk what to do. I water the leaves and the surface soil. I get the roots wet by a video I saw of leaving it in a water bowl for the roots to suck up the water for a little bit of time (doing this once a week). thank you for the recommendation link and hopefully it lives
Are you fertilizing your juniper?
Jenn Irwin did you look for spider mites?
I got my bonsai end of April so I haven’t fertilized it because honestly I don’t really know how. Also, I don’t have spider mites because my tree is indoors most time. I will start putting it outside now
Thank you all for the advice! I’ve decided to move it outside today and will try to look for a liquid fertilizer asap
Jenn - The Juniper is an outdoor tree. Keeping it indoors will kill it. Also, I hope I'm wrong, but with conifers once the needles start to dry out it's usually already too late. Their roots die first and then the foliage. All the best.
Thank you for that tour de force of tiny trees!
Awesome results of mini trees I really appreciate u r patience.. We need to learn a lot from you.. Thank you,,
Thank you very much!
New subscriber here! Love your videos, literally can't stop watching them. Very inspired to go get my bonsai pots! Got a chuckle at the bit where you couldn't pull the roots out. Thank you!
That’s a nice pot you planted those bonsai in
dude i absolutely love the hair cut
Sir you are amazing. I am from India and a big fan of your. The love for the plants you have cannot be described. You are an inspiration for many. Keep the good work going. ✌️🙌
Thank you Amit, happy growing!
A tip for Bougainvellia is; if water it good it will produce more leaves. And if u give it less water or keep it thursty then it will produce more flowers. U try try it. It always works
BONSAI ZONE LOOKS NATURAL. CANADIAN BONSAI. KEEP IT LOVING. IT'S A PERFECT LITTLE STYLE! SHOWS ARE OK. BUT SIMPLE AS LOVE!
Thank Holly!
Your work seems art to me.. so inspiring... 🤓
Thank you, very nice to hear!
I love small tress thank u sir.
"sir" wtf
Is Nigel an autocrat & you a slave or what?
Shoulders of Giants Dude It is a sign of respect and courtsey
Amazing bonsai plants ,
I loved the video it’s informative
Favorite one of your videos I've seen so far!
❤️Good collection 🙏
So inspiring..greeting from Bali
Thank you Made!
Nigel, at least one of your small trees seems to have a dead zone on the trunk. Have you considered detailing it like is done on the much larger trees? There's an on-line company called Micro-Mark that deals mainly in scale model train kits that has a line of tools specifically for small work. They're mainly surgical tools and one set is labeled as micro chisels that would be great for detailing dead zones on the small bonsai trees.....IF a person wanted to try that. The address is www.micromark.com/. They call themselves The Small Tools Specialists.
I just got a bonsai tree and I love your videos which helps me care for it and I am hoping to get another soon
Pick one up at a forest😌
Very entertaining video. Could you show top view more often just give an idea of how the branches spread out!!
I just realized how good your video quality is
Thank you very much Mr. Kraft!
Thank you so much Nigel Sir
Helpful vedio
Great video fantastic little trees thank you
Great video yet again, I love all my little shohin and mame bonsais because it means I can fit more bonsai in one area XD
This man is the wizard of bonsai. .even his hair is a windsweeped style lol.how he grows all of them..I'm petrified to even try and grow one even though I really want one
It,s really instructive, Thank you sir.
I’m watching a lot of bonsai videos and I’m itching to get to work on mine, but it’s the wrong time of year here in Australia; coming up for mid winter. Will just have to play with my model trains instead 😁
I have my Grandfathers live steam locomotive sitting behind me right now, it's a Britannia class. He built it in Perth in the late 1960's. I'm hoping to find the time some day to get it running. I'm the third generation to own it!
I'll have to feature it in a video!
That would be nice to see Nigel!! Do you know what scale it is?? I guessing for it being live steam and when it was built it’s ‘0’ scale. Thanks for sharing that info, cheers. 👍😉
Could you please do an update on your christmas cactus bonsai ?
Very lovely cascade cedar. Your bougainvilleas are looking very good. Hope that they will be in bloom for your fall show. They are such forgiving plants. I enjoy growing them in my garden and as bonsai. How is your son's bougainvillea doing? I've heard it said that it is much more difficult to create a small bonsai than a large one. Do you prefer small or large bonsai? As I get older my collection has changed some to smaller plants. It gets harder each year to lift the plants/pots. But, at least I can continue in the hobby. Thanks for sharing your work on these small plants and the explanation of the different "smaller" sized bonsai names.
Hi Nigel! I noticed you had a silver maple in frame around the 0:44 second mark. Would you consider doing a video on those? I have several silver maple bonsais myself, and most people don't advise using them. I have found them to make great bonsais. Thanks Nigel!
I’ve been looking for an update on the bougainvillea forest. They look great in this video. I hope they are still doing well.
Bonitos los bosques.. saludos
¡Gracias, me divierto trabajando en los pequeños!
I thoroughly enjoyed this video.
Can u also do a video on how u save rain water & use it for ur plants. I mean the whole rain water benefits, uses & how to video
very beautifull tree
Is it possible to print drainage holes smaller than your soil particle size? Then you wouldn’t need the drainage screen.
You can easily, the only problem is the roots grow through the drainage screens and as they get thicker, it is impossible to remove the tree without wrecking the mesh holes. It is better to have the screens separate!
Good point! Thanks.
Heh, I should have read this before commenting
Can you please make a video of a tour of all your bonsai trees
It will be nice to see all your trees in one video
喜欢你的作品！
非常感谢您，我非常喜欢种树和制作微型景观！
Fēicháng gǎnxiè nín, wǒ fēicháng xǐhuān zhǒng shù hé zhìzuò wéixíng jǐngguān!
Nigel, love your channel. It has inspired me to start a bonsai hobby. I have some seeds I’d love to send you. Collected at Walt Disney World. Trumpet tree , or Tabebuia rosea. Let me know how to send, and they are yours. Thanks!
I am trying African Wisteria in 3 inch leap pot, so far so good, it's about 3 months now.
Nice choice!
Great episode!
Awesome video! You're the Bob Ross of bonsai trees! Just FYI (not trying to be that guy...) it's should be mame (ma-may) and shohin (sho-heen). I's are ee sound and e's are eh sound in Japanese. Then you're killing it 100%
Hi Nigel, I thoroughly enjoy your videos, thanks for posting them. Sorry to bother you indirectly, but I couldn't find a way to message you directly through your home page. I'm trying to learn how to carve a "root stand" -- you know, those lovely gnarled stands that look as though they're entwined roots? Well, I've found images of blanks with holes drilled, planks "before and after" -- but nothing on how to get from blank to finished. Do you have any step-by-step videos, or can you recommend any? THANKS for all your delightful videos!
Bonsai Empire has a short article....

Adam has an article...
adamaskwhy.com/2016/03/14/carving-a-root-stand/
I don't see much else online, it looks like a specialty art form!
Just stumbled over this video of yours. Nice! However, sorry to correct you, Nigel, but Mame (Japanese for bean) are the smallest and are usually no taller than 5 cm although everything up to 10 cm are defined as Mame Bonsai. Shohin are the next level up to 25cm. Due to space and living on the fourth floor all my Bonsai - and those that yearn to be - are Mame or Shohin.
Thanks for the info!
Please do more videos of your cascading seader tree
Wow! I thought the monk was a real man!!
Yay, close ups!
Thank you!
even his haircut is bonsai style!
Clip and grow!
Bob Ross for bonsai trees
I'm a Bob Ross fan!
Hi,wall-E nice fisa over there😍👍🏼
WALL-E loves his tree!
So I have a Japanese dwarf maple tree. I bought it in its third season. The canopy of this tree seems perfect for how I picture it too be. It's mid July now. My question is. I want to repot my tree. Should I wait till next spring for repotting? It has regular potting soil in a 12" pot.
You can re pot mid summer if you don't do a lot of root pruning and you keep the tree in a semi shaded area until it recovers. Spring is definitely the best time to re pot, if the tree is healthy, you can do a lot of root work.
Nigel Saunders, The Bonsai Zone thank you so much for for this information.
Again, l request you to kindly make a video on daily care of the tools, especially after trimming Ficus sp.
Vrinda Bandishte a diluted bleach solution should be fine, like a cap full of bleach to a liter of water?
Nice little trees and lovely pots. your elm forest is interesting do you hold them over in the house for the winter?
Could you please do an update on your christmas cactus bonsai ? My favorite tree was Wall Es tree :) I thought the bark had lots of charicter.
Quick question, why don't you want the tree to flower?
because he said he wanted it to flower closer to show-time
Elena La Loca that makes sense thank you
hi nigel. iam courious, what happened to the chinese elm forest in this video. do you have an update on that? best wishes.
So beautiful..but work hard I know
I knew about the smallest - is shito, not mame, shito is smaller than 7,5 cm, and mame is between 7,5 and 15 cm.
Thank you, you don't often see Shito size bonsai around here, but they are wonderful!
Can you do something for a new bonsai dude to show where to get moss and how to grow and plant it?
Nice work!
Where did you get the buda ??? The one sitting in Orange.... I would love to get one...Tks. John
Have you considered modifying the drainage of your 3D pots to include a full mesh bottom structure?
so pleasant to watch Bonsai z . your club members r rea ly lucky to have in person u Mr N , u r a natural guide in the Bonsai way.
Thank you, we are lucky to have a really good club in the area!
Your hairs are growing nicely.😜 lol
Great video
I think I'll get it cut on Monday, some weird style of course!
Wall-e is back! Yay!
Best video yet
Can I ask how much it cost to get that small printed pot made? All the trees look amazing. I've learned a lot from you.
If i recall in another video he said 6 to 8 dollars depending on size
Sir i have brought cupressus torulosa seeds online and ten days are over yet they have not started to germinate
Nice video today 👍🏻
Thanks, I like what you've done with the ginseng Ficus! Could you tell me what kinds of Ficus they graft together to creat the Ginseng? I believe one of them is F. microcarpa, but I'm not sure if that's the root or the foliage that's been grafted on. My ginseng began to sprout shoots from the root stock, so now I have a choice of two different Ficus in one tree! I'd like to know what they are so I can decide which to keep, the upper graft died back partially so I'm tempted to get rid of it.
Merci pour cette belle vidéo qui me donne envie de me faire un petit bonsaï. J’ ai une petite question : combien avez vous d’arbre dans votre collection?et deuxième petite question est ce votre métier les bonsaï ? Encore bravo pour votre travail
Merci beaucoup, je fais mon travail à temps plein sur TH-cam maintenant, et j'ai environ 170 arbres dans ma collection. La plupart ne sont pas ce que vous appelez des bonsaïs finis, mais plutôt une expérience! Je ne me considère pas comme un proffesional bonsaï, mais plus d'un TH-camr bonsaï!
