Thanks Kevin for hugging the tree for me too.
My first thought at seeing a tree like these is always touch it and hug it, i dont know why...georgeous and stunning. Thank you so much.
Here in California right behind my house there’s a park protected with valley oaks of 300 or more years old like that tree. They are very healthy because no one bother them. I love old trees. So much respect for nature!
Kevin hugging the tree will forever bring me joy. 🥰 I love you guys so much.
Peter has created some beautiful specimen bonsai but nature trumps all. A truly inspiring piece of living history a blessing to touch and feel it's power.
We can never match Nature.
Bonsai adventures of Kevin and Pete
No words can express it's just awe inspiring! The smile on Peter's face was immeasurable! Magnificent thank you for sharing.
You can see why yews have an association with immortality - it's very well earned.
Peter told us about the trees a few years ago and on our first visit last year to Herons we went to both , the picture/video do not do the trees justice, hug them and feel the history of each , well worth a visit .
Today I received your book. The quality is far above what I expected! Full color, hardcover, qualitypaper, the content, the photos. Everything! A true Magnum Opus. And only very limited printed! It is word every penny!
Enjoy the book and imagine me speaking to you through the pages.
Good morning Bonsai Breakfast Clubbers 😮😀😀☕️
What an extraordinary and magnificent being that tree is. I always marvel at the fact that trees outnumber us by about 400:1 and outlive us many lifetimes over, living their lives at a different pace.
They were here before
And will endure long after
The Earth is theirs. Trees
Even through a video I can feel the majesty of this amazing being. Truly affected me, reminded me of how important these elders are. There is an amazing several hundred year old tree up the street from where I live, I think it's about time for a pilgrimage.
From the reverence you and Kevin both had for this tree, I had really hoped you'd show it in a video. Thank you very much for sharing, Peter.
Waw what a trees, time ...time is a strange thing... 500 year old, we are just a candle in the wind 👍🏼 Thankyou!🌳
Thank Yew Peter!
I love looking at really old trees.
Just goes to show you nature doesn't need any tools to create a master peace. Good video Peter.
But Nature has her tools as well. Lightening and wind are the most dramatic but there are more subtile ones also. Fungi and insects work to "carve" the wood and the sun bleaches and hardens it. Nature works her magic very slowly. It may take centuries but the masterpiece will be created.
Look at you guys. You are so moved by this tree. Of course you are. 💜
You are in the right trade for you.
If those trees could speak! The history and changes they have live thru, and just keep getting more beautiful and interesting 👍😊🙏
Some interesting stuff here , thank you , hoping 2023 is a peaceful, healthy , prosperous year , safe trip to lndia, safe return
So so beautiful!! It is Mother Nature speaking to us, trees like this connect us with the whole that we are. The endless cycle. Thanks for sharing
O please !!!
Magnificent trees..if only I can get into my hollowed bonsai tree like that 😂. Can't beat those natural sharis and jinns for sure. Thx for sharing Peter 👍.
That is one incredible Yew tree. 🌳
Very impressive which is absolutely created by nature. Amazing!🌴🎄🎉
Sublime, merveilleux, extraordinaire, incroyable ! Un énorme merci à vous pour le partage des images de ces arbres vénérables ! 😀😍👍
I don’t believe I’ve ever seen anything that size. Quite unbelievable 😮
Nature at its finest Peter! Thank you for sharing
Kevin must have been in Yew Tree heaven. 🥰
In this tree’s quest to live, there is awe inspiring beauty in the struggle.
Very beautiful. I love the old Oak tree at the Cummer museum in Jacksonville, FL. It's covered in mosses and other life and it's various large branches lie down, establishing miniature oak groves.
Outstanding! Worth a pilgrimage in their own right. To anyone wondering, the first absolutely ancient yew is at St.George’s church, Crowhurst (as was very briefly shown at the beginning of the vid). The ancient oak is in nearby Lindfield, “St Peter’s cross and jail house cage with adjacent hollow oak”. I don’t know where the second yew is? Perhaps Peter will deign to tell us…
The second one is in Tandridge village St Peter’s church
Many many thanks for this excellent video.
!!!!! thank-you!
Great video Peter thx 👍🏻
That tree is enchanting. ✨🌳✨
Perfect. 🌳❤️
I absolutely love these Xtra large trees!
Fantastic video and thanks for sharing 😊👍👍
Wow !!
An amazing tree..
Amazing 🙏🌿✌️
Beautiful lovely vibbs! ❤️❤️
Wow. Mystical is the word for this!
Thank you for sharing this spectacular tree! Waow!
I don't know about the UK but here in the US yews are not commonly used for bonsai. I think this may be because they are so frequently used in front of homes. They are considered too ordinary and common. Yews make beautiful bonsai and are excellent for deadwood carving. I have 3 yew bonsai and recommend them as bonsai.
Fabulous ❤
ENT wisdom, panpsychism, precious.
Man that's impressive
🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 thanks Peter
Such amazing trees!
Thank you!
Magnificent tree
What fantastic trees. Shame about the noise in the back ground with the first one though. Its really heartening to see an old oak like this still standing in a populated place, so often they are ignorently cut down as they are mistakenly considered unsafe. Thankyou for sharing 🙏
reminds me of cedars in vancouver canada, if the branch touches the ground it roots
That Yew was shown in a much earlier video I think.
Impressive !!!!! 😍😍😍😍
Thanks for this
There was a huge Juniper in my area it was about that size but it was on someone’s private property
Someone from LA bought the property and cut the tree down they think it will just grow back in the desert😢
Wow amazing
Yew really outdid yourself showing the talent of Mother Nature. Thanks, keep growing
there is NO mother nature. There is only God our Savior Jesus Christ who created everything on earth.
@@TheresaPowers got it. Sorry if you misinterpreted. Wasn’t meant to be taken literally in place of God. All nature is a gift from God. Therefore Mother Nature IS God. Thanks, keep growing
Ok Matt, was gonna give you a dressing down ! God bless you 🙏✝️
Even the "baby trees" are a good size
💕👍
Forgive my English. I have multiplied the oldest tree in Europe - yew from Fortingall ( 3000 y.o.Scotland). I have 2 cuttings (rooted shoots) 🙂 Greetings from Poland
I love old trees like that. There used to be a similar yew like that at Selbourne Church and an uneducated local cut down all the natural airlayerings and branches that made its way to the ground and sadly the tree had no support and fell over, it was well over a thousand years old. They found druid graves under it when they where cleaning up. There is also a hollow oak tree in Liss the local trouble makers were put inside and pelted with rotten food.
Druid graves under the yew tree?
Sorry, but that is nonesense.
@@Wotsitorlabart documented in many churches all over uk
@@rsa420
'Documented in many churches all over UK'.
If so, it is strange that in Professor Ronald Hutton's history of the Druids 'Blood and Mistletoe' he makes no mention of 2000 year old pagan graves in Btitish churchyards.
Care to provide evidence?
And when the Selbourne yew collapsed in January 1990 the graves found beneath it were medieval - the earliest dated to 1200 AD.
Who else can see all the Golem like faces at about seven minutes in.
The Churchyard Yew by Charubel
Revered reminder of ages long fled
Thy shade is sacred, beneath lie the dead
Those wrecks are the relics of mortality,
Their ashes now pay their tribute to thee.
Emblem of sadness! In thy ever dark-green
Trace reflections of life that has been
Life all dependent on what is most frail,
At night ’midst thy branches hear wail.
It is an echo the wave-crest the foam,
Life that is houseless, just driven from home.
In vision see thee ’mid wilds in the past,
Defiantly braving the rude winter blast.
Those winds blew o’er moor and o’er fen,
Places then free from the dwellings of men.
O’er those rude scenes the winds whistled wild,
It is thus how nature nurses her child.
How fragile so-ever the sapling may be,
’Tis doomed to shaking ere it grows to tree.
At present ’tis not so much that is seen
Of this sombre old tree, which stands between
The past and the present, the old and the new,
That I am concerned with and telling to you
But rather ’tis this the truth I’m revealing,
The Yew is healer, its powers of healing
Surpasses the body, it extends to the soul!
Poor and dejected, wilt thou be made whole
Why should you suffer such anguish of mind,
And ever be seeking for what you can’t find
Drugs and potations, all fail to control
Those greatest afflictions, those ills of the soul.
Turn thy sad soul to this grand old tree
Be earnest, be faithful, and thou shalt be free.The Churchyard Yew by Charubel

"No man can carve a tree like this. " Indeed Mr Chan. What can man accomplish more than and without God. Reverence the Creator and not simply the creation. Thank you for sharing this with us!
Amen, Glory to God!!!
@@gayefanner731 Amen!
God bless you James, keep witnessing 🙏✝️
@@gayefanner731 and you as well my friend! ✝️
No worries brother!!! 🙏✝️

Hoooooolllllyyyyyyyyyy sH90t
You guys are so cute.
Notice all the reverse taper.
YESSSS!!!
Is there any way you could some day do a video on jacaranda Peter ?
Sadly Jacarandas are tropical and they dont grow in the UK. I have seen some beauties in S Africa and in India.
The stories …
Almost alien. So magnificent!
This proves that…. GOD, is the Master Bonsai artist! What were YOU, doing 4,000 years ago?
That ltree is an art of God.
Nature
@@steveg1609 I am not religious,But somtimes when I see things in nature,I wonder….
It is God! n Harriet ,keep wondering n read the Bible for the answers!!!
@@gayefanner731 I might do that.
Good morning Harriet ( I’m guessing you’re in UK?) Ten years ago aged 58 I began reading the Bible and all the answers are there, including, or especially, what’ going on with the world today! Don’t struggle with the King James Bible to begin with, a modern translation, NIV or New American Standard(my fave at moment!) is much easier to understand n follow. God bless your studies 🙏✝️
The yew dominates the churchyard at St George's Church in Crowhurst, Surrey.
If the Yew is 4,000 years old, it has seen the rise and fall of empires and occupiers, the evolution of society from primitive to technologically advanced. Romans, Anglo-Saxons, Vikings and Normans have all come and gone under its weary branches.
However, since it is nearly impossible to date a Yew, some experts believing the tree is closer to 1,500 years old.
When Celtic tribes populated Britain, the Yew tree was revered as a symbol of longevity and rebirth. This continued under Roman occupation but such practices were stopped when the Empire converted to Christianity.
The Crowhurst Yew would be right at home in Fangorn forest, the ancient woodland of J.R.R Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings. Or it could be the home of a witch, goblin or fairy due to a somewhat mysterious door and hollowed out trunk.
Around 1820, a group of locals hollowed out the bole of the tree and fashioned it into a meeting place and a tearoom with enough space to put a table and seating to accommodate 15 people.
In the process of 'excavating' the tree, the locals found a 1643 Civil War cannonball lodged in the trunk. Between 1643 and 1820, the cannonball and the door became entangled in the yew.
In 2002, the Crowhurst Yew was selected as one of the '50 Great British Trees' in honor of the Queen’s Golden Jubilee.
Wait until the council deem that oak tree “dangerous’ then criminally chop it down
Construction ruined it.
But where is it ?
"St George's Church"
Did some googling looks like Crowhurst
And Only God can make a tree - Joyce Kilmer
I like it Theresa, good girl, keep witnessing time’s running out. God bless you 🙏✝️
The Celts had many spiritual places, Trees and Grottoes. The Catholic church built churches on these locations to usurp power. I am a Christian, but, that building is an obscenity.
Hmm, as a follower of Jesus I don’t see how your comment helps further the Kingdom 🙏✝️
The fact that a church is there gives the tree more vibes, but I don’t the church building is an obscenity.
A big assumption by the first poster that, because the tree was there before the church was built, it had some kind of religious significance.
There is little evidence that yew trees were venerated in pagan times.
Yews were planted in churchyards as a western European version of the planting of cyprus trees and other evergreens around burial grounds in Mediterranean lands - the yew being the only suitable evergreen in the colder climates.
The vast majority of yew trees found in churchyards were planted at the same time as the building of the church.
And older ones were planted as a marker for a place of assembly by the Anglo-Saxons - eg the hundredal courts would be held beneath prominent trees.
1773 is not 500 years ago.
