- A lesson in how to create a prebonsai from a nursery azalea. The nursery plant is root pruned, repotted, pruned and styled, and moss and a rock are added for decoration after the tree is potted into a cream colored bonsai pot. Total cost of this project was $25, $20 for the pot and $5 for the azalea. For more, please visit www.kuromatsubonsai.com For more about azalea bonsai, kuromatsubonsai.com/azalea-bonsai

This is exactly the video I needed. Thank you! I just got an azalea on clearance for $1 because it had been damaged in a storm and I thought it would make a perfect bonsai but wasn’t sure how to go about it. This video helps a lot!
My dad picked out two beautiful azalea in the new shrubs he and my mom bought recently and I fell in love with it and so I took a cutting from it and am gonna train it to be a bonsai when it hopefully grows roots.
This turned out beautiful. A lot of helpful tips. Thank you for sharing.
That’s is beautiful! Thank you for giving me an idea to grow my azalea.
Im curious on how this is doing now after the video
Wow, beautiful. I’ll try it myself. Thanks for sharing!
very helpful I just received a bonsai for mothers day and I'm trying to learn how to care for it this is a very instructional video enjoyed it very much..
It turned out so beautiful! Any updates on this one ?
Thank you. I've seen many vid's on larger, more established Asalea's but never one that is just a average, run of the mill one strait from the nursery. This is great for a beginner like me. Can you give any pointers as to how to pick the best Azalea the nursery has? I did hear you say the yellow leaves are a sign of water log. Should I stay away from a plant like that or just figure the replanting will spring it back into a healthy green? Love your tutorials, thank you!
just beautiful!!!
@15demersm 55-60 deg and darkness should be enough to keep a wisteria dormant. If it starts to grow anyway, move it to the window with the tropicals. Wisteria are semitropical vines, and coming out of dormancy early will not harm them. It happens here all the time when we get a January heat wave -- like we are having now.
Great video! Do you have an update on how your azalea is doing?
Thank you that was wonderful.
let it grow, i will see it next time with flowers, very nice.
nice tree cant wait for next video
hahah the ice cream man lol
Very helpful thank you!
Very useful and informative clipping, thanks for sharing
Great video ! I learned alot. Can you tell me what type of Moss you used ? Also, what was the Size of the Pot you used ?
Thank you for this video. Is there an update video for this same plant?
Nicely done, thank you for that! Where did you get the moss!
Standard mix: equal parts decomposed granite, builder's sand, pumice and organic matter (good potting soil).
Thanks for the great video :-)
Im new at gardening so does this mke your bonzai miniture and stay miniture?
@roelex14 That is a very useful technique -- for the other azaleas I have bulking up in the growing beds out in back.
Awesome video, where there any updates? Would love to see what 11 years of growing has done.
you hear an icecream truck and don't go running? What is wrong with you? LOL... Now I want icecream!
I've been into bonsai for only about 6 months now and I had a question about soil mix. I read a Walter Pall article on soil/watering and feeding and it made a lot of sense. I was wondering if you had read the same thing and if it is practical in CA with the high temps we have sometimes? (There is a youtube video of him speaking about the same thing). He says overwatering is impossible with his method and it would really make it convenient if I were to go on vacation.
Hi chas! I got another bonsai for Christmas that came dormant and was raised outside, all of my tropicals are in the window and are dormant from the cold drafty window(atleast it's useful for something), but what do I do with my wisteria that I just got, I live in Massachusetts and there is like a foot of snow on the ground so I can't bury the tree like I'm supposed to..what should I do? (I had to post in two)
Nice Video!! Just found a Fomosa Azalea bonsai in our local nursery, I like the pot where did you get it from?
Can we use fertilizer in a recent repoted plant/bonsai?? i read some book that say we must leave the plant recover from repoting then add fertilizer. Insted of fetilizer we must use some vitamines or biostimulats
thx for nice video :)
@chas
Thanks so much! I was worried lol...

@chasnsx ohh, ok Charles thanks for the explanation :).. i'm new at bonsai and i found many information on books and internet but many times that information doesn't match , that became my worst nightmare into understanding more of bonsai, but i'm trying :)
i own a serissa that i bought already as bonsai, and i created an azelea, 2 junipers and a hawaiian umbrella tree (Arboricola schefflera) from nursery stock
Doesn't the potting soil element of you mixture have to be ericaceous soil for azaleas?
Magnesium sulfate and high nitrogen fertilizer.
I was very surprised you didn't prune roots back.
When do you wire??
@knoxxxxxx I should have explained, but I can't get everything into a 12 minute video. With this tree, I removed very few roots, used an oversize pot, and the tree is already flowering. If I do not fertilize it it will burn all its energy on flowers and run out of steam when it is time to produce leaves. You are right, though. If you root prune, do not fertilize until you see new growth on the tree.
@chas
Thanks a bunch!
-miranda
Why did you not take some of the roots off?

I am just getting into bonsai's. Oh what a wonderful bonsai, where is a good place to purchase pots, are they all so very expensive? thanks stay well
I go to thrift stores, yard sales, joined a bonsai club in my area, and have even made my own specialty pots. I have an antique bowl, covered the bottom with masking tape, used a concrete drill bit.
ty :)
my nursury azalea was potbound and root rot. wouldnt take water from the mat of surface roots. i drastic pruned it and had to cut lots of roots out.. i hope i didnt kill it. if so im out 12 buck. but this trunk is so amazing. in my state it was perfect timing but the sesitive roots scare me
down to a 4 banch stump hard prune
Hi, just started into the hobby of Bonsai to keep me occupied lol although its probably too late in the year to do anything to them. My question is what time of the year, like early Fall, too late to prune, and shape? I live in Pennsylvania in 5-7 hardiness zone, and am looking to do Juniper, Ellwood Cypress, and other evergreens. Just wondering if its too late in the year to work with them right now? Any advice would be greatly appreciated thank you.
Always prune Azalea and rhododendron after flowering. And repot in the spring, pruning root ball if getting to crowded.
Got an update on this?
Nice Job Would like close ups.
Ideally you would want to prune when the tree is in the dormant state. Although evergreens never really lose their needles and go completely dormant like deciduous trees winter and early spring before everything starts growing for the year is the best time to prune IMHO.
With azalea, trim right after flowering, then you'll have new flower buds the next year.
Thank you for the video. I've planted some Azalea seeds, but they died when they was very small. It was a bad idea to start creating a bonsai from seeds.
Sato Unless you have 150 years
Michael Bozeman I have grown several Albizia julibrissin (Persian silk tree) bonsai from seed. The trees are 6 years old now and the trunk is about the thickness of a man's thumb, they start to look like proper bonsai right now. It depends very much on the species and your care how long it will take to grow bonsai from scratch. Mimosoideae kinds grow very fast, so do fici, azaleas and other rhododendra. It doesn't take a century to get some nice bonsai, unless you want the ultimate as-old-as-time-looking Yew tree. Then you better buy or collect a mature tree or you need to reincarnate to see your results. :)
Hurry, the ding dong cart is coming!
could not see exactly where you cut the stems. but the results are beautiful.
specimen. Was frustrated with that as well
How to grid Azalea plant from seeds
(please can u write exect soil (english isnt my language..)
Can Axalea be kept indoors?
It can be during the coldest months, place next to north facing window. Or south if in Australia. But best outside with the seasons. They don't have to go dormant, but it preferred for vitality.

Is that an ice cream truck i hear?
ICEEE CREEAAAAAAMMMM
hahaha
I just got this comment when I heard the music at the end lol 🤦🏻♀️
@sharkfin154 That is the neighborhood ice cream truck. Didn't have time to run out and flag it down.
I already see it pushing sap:(. I don't want it to wake up this early, it's in my house in a dark corner in a somewhat cool spot, 55-60 degrees. Oh the tree is like 2.5 feet tall lol, it's quite beautiful, all my others I trained myself. -Miranda
Yellow leaves indicates what???
Old growth, they fall off. Or over watering in that nursery soil. I'm not sure about nitrogen burn cause azaleas like acidity.
How has no one mentioned the ice cream truck?!
all I'm getting is an ad for a series charger. No video about bonsai at all.
ice cream truck is in the neighborhood!!!!!! can you guys hear it!!!!
Because my bonzai is mini it's cute :-)
Wrapping in tissue paper might help my honeysuckle, who's bark is just about as bad as azalea
I hope with your next video when you cut "internodal" focus the camera first clearly what you mean. Your teachings will be better appreciated.
I wouldn't put it into a proper bonsai pot until it had at least 5 years (repotted every year or two) in a training pot.
but you didnt cut the roots. i read that you have to cut two thrids of the roots in order for it to be Little when it matures into a tree
Yes he did. He showed where and why , for this particular speciman.
It doesn't seem right leaving the flowers on when you repot it's putting the tree under to much stress it's just used all its energy to flower your blasting the roots with a high powered hose then leaving the flowers on after its in the bonsai pot and the other thing I'm watching as writing this is your putting fertilizer on it read the back on the packet it tells you not to whilst in flower I'm supprised if this survived at all
If the fert he used was like blood meal, low NPK with a slightly higher N, it's good. Soil acidifier mag. sulfate will help too, or Epsom salt.
good informant video, but why is the camera going in for close up`s, no point to it, irritating
Not really a bonsai pot but ok.
That is a rhodo-rhodo not an rhodo-azalea but otherwise a good video. Thanks,
count the number of stamens...it's an azalea
Sorry ,I disagree .Look at leaf size . Looks like a semi-evergreen azalea , which is in the rhododendron genus . Semi-evergreen in most of the Northeast . I agree w/ you Maurice
This guy doesn't like to get his hands dirty..........................Erms
Diane Donald You shut up, an who are you to tell anyone what to do. I had parents lady now mind your own ya freak
+Diane Donald youtube is for positive AND negative comments..
You do need to watch the soils and chemicals you're working with. A friend had back spray from some copper fungicide. The next year they were reconstructing his nose from skin off his back.
if the nursery told you that was an azalea they lied, thats a hibiscus.
That’s not a true azalea. It’s another type of rhododendron. Leaves are way too big for a good bonsai.
