A great presentation Rafa! Always good to see you my friend.

[@notionbonsai]

Nice video Bjorn! Raffa has some really beautiful trees 😍 Keep up the great work man! 😀

[@craighunter3273]

Very good. What a cool and relaxed chap. Funnily - at 4.01 - I thought you had filmed him going to the loo …

[@oscars85]

Rafa, gracias por compartir. I started doing bonsai for the same reason, work was stressing and causing anxiety. I hope to take a leap as you did one day and just step away from my work and start doing something that will be better for my health and that I enjoy. Thanks for posting Bjorn.

[@robertobreglia9224]

Very compliments Rafa for sharing this video about your story,now you have a great and beautiful collection of trees and most of them are really beautiful bonsai!👍👍👍👍😉

[@tomgargano9066]

Beautiful video for many reasons. I felt it important to point out how much I appreciate the levels of scrutiny these trees and, exported plants in general, are subjected to before export. So many horrible diseases/insects have wiped out prized native species. I’m sure other countries have examples too but for me, I’ve never seen an American Chestnut like they used to be.

I have a couple of Majorcan trees and now I do know why they are special. Gracias Rafa, and Bjorn.

[@HDNBenjamin]

Beautiful trees!

[@Pawpawlogan]

I love wild olive as bonsai. Thanks for sharing.

[@arturassabaliauskas6186]

Thanks . Great video.

[@mimoochodom2684]

Absolutely amazing. I wish I could visit and take trees o/s but alas, not possible.

[@bonsaipage_]

Very awesome video, visiting his nursery is added to my bucket list 😊, his comments are very true, Bjorn got me into bonsai through one of his videos but once I got into it I realized what a stress reliever it is for me. Also with being a spanish speaker I can say the translations are very accurate!! For anyone wondering 👍

[@jackachapman]

I love it. Great video! I really want to see more of his bonsai garden design. The few glimpses in this video look perfect.

[@Nanang_bonsai]

very pleasant, by caring for bonsai we can reduce stress and fatigue after work. The mind can be calm when we do maintenance and make a bonsai. Keep expressing with bonsai. You have a very beautiful bonsai. Greetings from Indonesian bonsai lovers

[@davidmurray9844]

[@maktrixfsb]

[@MinhNguyen-hj1ue]

Great stuff!

[@thecheerio786]

I keep imagining him sculpting his beard with the same pruning shears, one hair at a time. ✂️ 🌳 🧔

[@Donpapibonsai]

Great video

[@stephencreswell229]

[@tubonsaiencasajoseximenez2541]

[@arnopienaar8111]

Bravo amigo

[@Riky-elcomodeljardin]

Una maravilla de vivero😍 Siendo de la península me pilla un poco lejos, pero como aficionado tengo la meta que "algún día" poder pasarme a conoceros😊. Personalmente muchas veces me pregunto si algún día mi camino en el Bonsai me llevará o no a poder dedicarme profesionalmente a ello, pero una de las cosas que precisamente el bonsai me ha enseñado es que si tiene que ser será y en su debido momento ..."tiempo al tiempo" Enhorabuena por todo el esfuerzo y sobre todo gracias por compartir con todos nosotros conocimientos y ejemplares de este calibre 🙏🏻

[@juancarlosgonzalez1489]

Gracias Rafa por compartirlo. Totalmente de acuerdo contigo en lo de España en el mundo del bonsai, está bien que un profesional como tú hablé sin complejos . Saludos

[@siriusharsha]

I have an idea sir. At 11:39 the tree you were supporting with a stick. How would it be if it is replaced with a elegantly carved wooden dragon statue or someother figurine. I would like to see how it would look.

[@jiijino_bonsai_ch]

素晴らしい盆栽😍😍😍

[@t3dwards13]

Owning a nursery seems to definitely change how you practice the art. But you both seemed to adapt well.

[@JoseAntonio-lv1hc]

[@emiledb]

🙌🏻

[@Markplaats-x1h]

I'm not so sure men...About Spain being the one leading behind Japan. Italy seems very good too. And one of the biggest bonsai producers is actually in the Netherlands. Though big doesn't mean good. still.

[@미리내-p1i]

👍👏👏👏

[@udin_vea]

i like it bonsai

[@brucedeacon28]

👍👌🙂

[@mountian_to_marsh_fishing]

Great video. Whoever translated this was very superficial in the way they did it. They way toned dowm the message of what he had to say. Example when he said”Quiero que todo haga bonsái” this is in the subjunctive which indicates that he’s saying everyone should do bonsai. ( also a lot of context from other sentience’s help to tone this down) this was translated as everyone should try bonsai which is in a way the message he wanted to get across but if that’s what he wanted to say he would have used probar supposed to hacer. No problem with the translation I just fine the way they filtered the words interesting. Also the part where he says Europe was the first continent bonsai was brought to he basically said Spain is the best the rest of Europe is just ok. The way it was translated did not reflect that. Just a note I had no problem with the translation

[@questionablecooking7019]

Wen import trees from Rafa to sell me, sir ?

[@josedavidvaleriocambronero3446]

Xq no pueden dar un video 100% en español es egoísta eso No sé otra lengua , creo q tambn hablan poco de otras especies tropicales en EEUU o Europa q se dan bn en esos climas Para gustos los colores , si no son arces coníferas u olivos no ay video Gran detalle mejorar eso ...!!!
