    The tree has survived the axe! It is just coming into leaf and is now my real pride and joy. Thanks again to Peter and his team. Richard.

    There are many people who prefer the "natural" look over what the gatekeepers push for. The natural approach, I believe, leads to a more relaxed and calming bonsai tree. I want my own trees to give the viewer the impression that they are taking a nice leisurely stroll in the woods. My trees may not impress the purists, but I am not attempting to do that. My trees are for my own peace and tranquility.

      Quite agree my biggest mistake in bonsai over the years was taking it too seriously (and spoiling the enjoyment) if what you’re creating pleases you that’s all that matters, throw that rule book away 🙃

      That is exactly my approach and others including the 'gate-keepers' are beginning to see why I do things my way.

    I'm very new to Bonsai, starting at just a young 74, and still finding my way but this video is amazing and has boosted my confidence to just 'jump in and swim'. I love Peter's down to earth videos and teaching, a great practical approach which takes the 'stuffiness' & 'gate keeping' out of Bonsai. Thank you.

    1000% agree with your gatekeeper comment. Allowing new styles will prevent the art of bonsai from staying stagnant.
    In the words of David De Groot, our friend and author of 'Principles of Bonsai Design', he shares "rules as applied to art are not requirements, and they are not legislation. They are neither commandments nor prohibitions. Rules in art are descriptions of common practice. Our aesthetic sense, which determines what we consider to be beautiful, is largely subjective."
    What a beautiful container to upgrade this customer's tree into! Complete transformation. And watching you pull that container out of this tree reminds me of when we repotted a customer's seven feet tall bonsai tree. Excellent work!

    A battery powered reciprocating saw/saws all, could work wonders in my opinion. I def would of cut the pot but also with the root system. a saw like could save a lot of energy and less stress on the tree.

    Wow Peter that was one heck of a job getting firstly the tree out of the pot then dealing with the roots, I can almost see people shaking their heads, ( what is he doing digging the roots with a spade and an axe that will kill the tree ) we know better that the best feeding roots are within the top third of the soil the roots removed we’re doing nothing to support the life of the tree, it willrecover quickly to produce more quality feeder roots. That is a magnificent Beech it looks so much better in the large drum pot when you changed the shape by trimming the tips. What I do find amazing is your energy to do this sort of work. I repotted, wired and trimmed a Chinese Juniper this morning less than half the size of the Beech tree and needed a good rest after I had finished the job. Thank you for allowing us to be inspired by your videos. Joe.

    Nice job Peter. Can Beech tree roots that were cut off be used for propagating more trees?

    • @oldgold5848
      @oldgold5848 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yes, I wonder if the roots would work like root cuttings that you do with elm for example

  • @T-DsGaming
    @T-DsGaming 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Taking that much root off of the tree will not cause die back or death of the tree? I've seen full sized trees die from roots getting cut, it amazes me every time I see roots being cut back like this. I would like to see an update on this tree to see how it looks after some months have passed.

      ​@shropshireladoutdoors743 what a surprise you are posting negative comments about Peter again. You have issues. Do you have a bonsai business or something? Trying to spread rubbish about other people?

    • @jakesnelling8331
      @jakesnelling8331 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      It's all about experience of how much you can take off with different species. And then the aftercare. Some species of tree do not like the roots being touched, others can be treated rough and come back stronger. Ignore the other comment posted. That person just trolls other channels out of bitterness.

      @shropshireladoutdoors743 you are talking nonsense. So many people on TH-cam make out that bonsai is some mystical ultra technical thing. It is basic horticulture at its roots. And there is a massive difference between early development and a 'finished' bonsai.

    I'm not against it. Not a rich person, so not going to buy one either. Already bought Nemo moonlight when it was on great sale. That one feels like it is going to last. Straps need ocassional sugarsolution orsomething similiar to ad some grip for the adjustment fuction.
