Intense repot for sure - I bet the roots will really benefit from this hard work and the foliage is so vibrant again. I love how this tree looks like a beautiful large orchard apple - the scaling in incredible!

She is looking great, brother! Fantastic job of patiently bringing it along.

Do you expect any fruits in any of the upcoming years?

I see that you also have hard water (scale forms), the traces are visible on the trunk base. Do you have any method to remove these traces from the base of the trunk?

Any chance you know what species of Cotoneaster it is?? The tree is coming along great!

Im sure the plant is much happier now, thankyou

Frequent repot in the early years can help...

Could you tie a string around the lower root plane? That would maybe prevent them from taking over and insentivise the tree to put more energy in the upper roots

Hell yeh Broski. That repot was an epic battle scene. This tree looks like the perfect miniature apple with those berries coming in red. Dope. Cheers 😎🍺🍺

Foistski 😊

I’ve seen pic of apple trees that have fruit. Why hasn’t yours had any flowers or anything? Is it too young?

Xavier sent me. Cool channel.

Great video and info.

just started my 1st ever bonsai earlier today will be checking back a lot of usefull advice in the others ive watched

It feels like that the rootball was so thick that it became hard to get water in the soil, especially the inside.

Had the same thing happen to a couple other species last year - so random! All you can do is move forward. If it happens again with the same tree, there might be something genetically making in unfit for bonsai conditions. Fingers crossed!

This format of each tree with its own playlist is the best! This is why i am hooked on your channel.

Oh well, hopefully next year will be better

Looks like she wanted a do-over. Hope the fresh start goes even better than round 1 did

I planted the seeds in the middle not spreader and I think they went over 0.3 cm deep is that ok?

Nice save on this. Thankfully it grew a new shoot and not all was lost. Looking forward to seeing how this new part progresses!

I think lilacs unfortunately just do this. I see this happen with lilacs in the ground all the time, where the older shoots die off periodically. In fact you often see people doing it intentionally, ie cutting out the older shoots to encourage the newer shoots which brings on better health and more blooms. It may just be a battle you will fight continuously bro, but I guess time will tell.

Nice save Broski. When trees die after years of the same treatment its such a mystery. I lost baobabs, and jacarandas this year that have been content for 6+ 🙄🤔🤬

I was thinking Wrap the new around the dead?

after my binge of your channel when i subscribed, I have been watching everything you have up. Now I must say your channel is my favorite bonsai channel due to the progression and play list of a single tree, but waiting for a year for new installments is killing me. I don't have enough trees at the moment to fully occupy me. Will continue my wait for the Maple update.

🙏🙏💐

wait I kept the bag open because I thought they needed like air do I have to keep them close all the time or is it just to protect it from direct sun

do I have to put it in the fridge like is it just to help it have a good start but u don’t really need to

Happy to have landed on this page and series .. I received a small pomegranate early this spring (Vancouver Canada) and was NOT told it wasn't acclimated to outdoors, so after a couple of weeks of putting it outside for progressive lengths of time, I left it out. All the leaves turned and it became a few twigs on a stump in a week. I saw how hard you hacked back the tree and I thought, "Well, it will either come back OR I need to find someone local with seeds." To my joy, both happened! I have 40 seeds germinating as we speak and one branch of the little tree is sending out shoots under my LED lights like nothing happened. Going to see where the little guy decides it wants to go, but for now, I'm looking towards an interesting shohin-styled pom for my 'accidental' group of trees. Thanks for the great advice and videos.

where can i get an olive tree? I want one a lot and live in eastern U.S. in growing zone B. That one is very nice now!

It makes for a fun tree with all the pruning you get to do. I think its dope. I have my share of horrible choices for bonsai. Cheers

I love the challenges of the bigger leaf varities and this one is developing nicely. Great stuff.

Love your content, cant wait to grab a conker from my childhood tree and get her going.

Love it! Trunk has a really cool shape, and quite enjoy the leaves. A squirrel donated a conker tree to me last year so potted it up this spring - can't let you have all the fun! I'm experimenting with some vigorous growers (i.e. junk trees) by doing yearly heavy root pruning, follower by rest periods. My hope is that is this will reduce the vigour enough to shorten the internodes during early development. Who knows - may end up with the opposite lol!

Definitely better than sycamores

HTF did I miss this? 😂🍺🍺cheers Broski

I have messaged you on Messenger my friend for a bit of help thankyou

My wife baught me this pack and I've just planted the seeds thanks to a boost from your channel✌️would love to know what potting mix you use once they start to grow.

Hope you’re well mate. As always love your work and look forward to updates. Keep it up man.

That root ball looked fantastic! Another great year with this one, Ian. I’m diggin it.

With all your complaining, why did you not take all the cutting and propagate??? you could have had 20 new trees to submit to youur percent tuch.

Been waiting for this update as I am about to embark on my Bay Leaf bonsai journey. Great to see how it repsonds in our climate :)

Pro level tree bro.

Looking good! Even my garden bay tree doesn't wake up til early May, and then, I only prune away crowded or extremely long branches. Seems to need light inside the tree to say healthy. I'm sure this repot should give it a great start for this growing season.

Its will take off now.....Thanks

I took a bit of a risk with my Laurel but found it to be Hardy. Late April I removed every lead once buds started to swell. It responded really well. It took a few weeks to kick in but now it has a thick crop of fresh smaller leaves.

I love fuchsia. I hope to get a live little bonsai in a few years.

Ah what a shame, it was looking great! Hopefully you can make something cool out of it. I just came across this series of videos as I've just got into bonsai and dug up a snowberry fron the garden and got it potted up. From your videos it looks like the tree is basally dominant, would you agree? I like seeing the progressions you've done, so many videos on youtube just show a snapshot in time and I want to see how it develops, hope you keep making them!

Iv had a couple of private cuttings for at least 2 years now and they’re still matchstick thin! Do you strike cuttings from hard wood?

Dang, she is really coming into her own now! Great work with the privet, Ian
