So nice tree

[@suer666]

I love what you have done for this tree. Thank you for the videos and your practical explanations. So down to earth for us novices

[@KitakuBonsai]

I second that Sue!

[@danbanham728]

The sign of a true master is making something look effortless and you did just that Corin, the skill to see the image of the tree and to transform what was there. Very impressive.

[@KitakuBonsai]

It’s amazing to see how easy and effortless he makes it look!

[@greenhawk1592]

Verry nice , great video!

[@kilthsenarc]

Great. Thanks for your video.

[@Omco-ry5xi]

Excellent transformation.

[@markmondrinos7721]

You are one of the best bonsai teachers on KZbin. Just the right amount of detail and perspective, but also showing how efficient the process can be.

[@KitakuBonsai]

Spot on Mark!

[@monkichiboi4003]

THIS WAS SOO HELPFUL FOR ME TO DECIDE WHAT TO DO WITH MY DECAR UR VIDEOS ARE THE BEST GREENWOODB ONSAI

[@davidjennings9556]

I've got 2 cuttings of Lebanon cedar. Seeing new growth on them this spring!....one will be bonsai and the other will be grown inground to use for propagation (provided they both servive). Years of training ahead. Looking forward to the work! Great video and awesome tree!

[@ricklandaubonsai5506]

Really nice job. I'm not sure how much planning goes into the project before he films it but the confidence in his work is really cool to witness! Cheers!

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

Cheers Rick, Actually no planning, I like to just start off and discover what the tree has to offer ! Its a more real experience for me and for viewers.

[@worldwidenwo]

Really nice finish

[@lyndaburrows1548]

Great video. You make it look so easy. And your explanations as to what you are doing are easy to follow.

[@creightonfreeman8059]

Beautiful tree after a bit of work! I wasn't sure about removing that jin but seeing it upon completion it definitely worked out.

[@paulcropper4568]

good job mate, good vid, cheers

[@ryantranter8206]

Great looking tree and I liked the change in camera view this time having it higher above your shoulder made it easier to see what you were working on. Keep up the good work 💪

[@Dmoongurren]

Great video

[@harrietb2141]

You are so good🥰

[@ew5053]

Thanks for the great guidance on how to go about making the changes. Very motivational and the results are stunning

Very good work to learn. a cedar with a very beautiful design change. Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Barcelona and until the next video👍😄

[@KitakuBonsai]

Agreed! And greetings from Hershey Pennsylvania USA! 😅

[@jimbersmcimbers]

My favourite species. Can't beat a big old mature one on a country estate.

[@KitakuBonsai]

Ooo I like that!

[@bonsaigardenwithmarksander968]

Looks really nice corin great shape .🙏🏻

[@Krisz-nm1zv]

Thanks🤝

[@andrewbrewitt5107]

A head mounted go pro would be perfect to see your point of view when working on these trees

[@Ukeitupmike]

I have a very young one of the same species. Great to see what’s possible is some years

[@robertlinek3807]

This is great stuff. Thanks for posting.

[@philipmullins5507]

Thanks Corin - another great video.

[@santarific9x60]

Aw man he changed the angle once he pot it into that round pot. I was excited to see it planted with that tilt.

[@Bowman11111]

Really good, well trimmed and shaped . Excellent. A true master.

[@alfredgrechbonsailicious4827]

Another good one.

[@allanchurm]

when i was young i did the course for beginners at greenwood studio and also the afternoon one...still have the paper i was given afterwards showing when to feed and when to re pot. its a bit yellow round the edges now due to its age..BUT i still remember that day. shaped my first bonsai using a choice from the nursery one for the morning session and one for the afternoon......that tree look s very nice after it was re shaped and potted thanks corin

[@KitakuBonsai]

Do you still have it?

[@MF-fc5vk]

That's a beautiful tree. 😊

[@SyriusStarMultimedia]

I’m a huge Jane Austen fan but if I ever make it to England I would stop by your studio first. You are a great bonsai artist.

[@shropshireladoutdoors743]

This is how to refine a tree very nice tree will be nice to see it again next year

[@mamagrazi]

It might be sold by then

[@KitakuBonsai]

I hoping for an update too!

[@danieltarcak]

Thanks again. Splendid.

[@heikolaub5442]

Hi...toller Baum 👏👏👏🙌...bin beeindruckt... Mfg

[@andreasweber1533]

Agree on the choice of pot; alternatively a very simple rounded rectangle "trough" might have worked (kind of cliché for conifers of course). And the first time I've seen someone demonstrate gripping onto the wire with pliers to bend a branch. I had started to wonder whether I was the only one doing that ... ;-)

[@KitakuBonsai]

Sounds like you have more experience than you give yourself credit for!

[@urdumboo7657]

beautiful now

[@almac2598]

Lovely tree. Public Enemy No1 AKA Vine Weevil got mine last Spring despite anti VW treatment. It was about 2/3 the size of this one. Gutted. I replaced it with a seedling last summer, now about 30 cm and doing well. Thanks for the video.

[@KitakuBonsai]

How’s the tree doing now?

[@gregoryh4601]

Corin very nice lesson for us . Could you do a video on your Bonsai Garden? Thanks and Be Safe these Days.

[@kaanforward7782]

Finally was waiting for this one, amazing video!

[@opabinnier]

My favorite bonsaist. But with C libani it's always such a waste not to express the unique habit of the species: main branches creating great horizontal planes of foliage. This character is even more striking and handsome in bonsai when the horizontal pad composition works with the angular and flowing trunk, This was a lost opportunity. Come on Corin, you're our number ONE.

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

Thanks, But bonsai isn't a direct copy of the same species in nature. Its an artistic expression. I have 2 other large cedars that are styled more as you mention, as their branch structure suits that style. With this one the style was initially more dictated by the movement in the trunk, Therefore I went with a more flowing branch arrangement. Glad you like the vid's

[@opabinnier]

@@greenwoodbonsaistudio Thanks for not being offended: you are a great inspiration to me and I have picked up great tips- like the tilt here which totally MAKES the tree.

[@gixxermaan]

I love cedrus trees and cedrus bonsai. I'm training a cedrus that's a 25years old garden plant with good potential and have grown on, from seed, many cedrus atlantica. I got the seeds of a cedrus atlantica glauca tree in the garden. Great video 👍

[@KitakuBonsai]

And they make fantastic forest plantings too! 👍

[@kennethcanfield9251]

Great Video! Thanks for all your content. I would love to hear about how the cedar has done over time. What sort of support did the tree need after that much root pruning?

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

Hello Kenneth. It needed so extra care. It went outside after styling and it still there doing great !

[@melodyivey8066]

Like fluffing a Christmas tree

[@randallmaier4036]

I’d love to see how you style your hemlock trees. Not much info out there about hemlock bonsai.

[@peterjohnson350]

Very interesting video and a great improvement in the style. I have a Deodar cedar that was planted in my mother's garden that I took out last year. It is still very much alive but has not put on much growth. I know cedars are a bit sulky. Is this to be expected?

[@zdenekjuda7469]

😍👍👍👍

i'm trying to start my first bonsai and currently my tree looks rather scary odd looking however i'm not loosing hope!

[@alvarooller9615]

Muchas gracias por la lección. Tengo una pregunta: ¿Los cedros se pueden acodar? Tengo uno con el que poder hacer un precioso bunjin, pero...es un injerto y tiene una base horrorosa. no hay mucha información en la web sobre esta especie, y menos sobre si se puede acodar.

[@PrototypeBMX]

funny question how do you get out of bonsai? 🤔

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

Not sure if anyone ever has !! lol

[@c.wdervin5987]

I thought it looked better before…

[@1Fmarcel]

Must say I'm impressed with your skills. But Ancient Lebanese Cedar trees does not look crooked like that at all. By the way, Lebanese Cedar are steeped thousands of years of history in the Middle East, like the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem, that should have contained the Covenant.

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

Yes, I know I love Cedars and have seen many large specimens. But bonsai is not about just copying nature, but making an artistic representation of it.

[@soberhippie]

A short video of 40 mins

[@shropshireladoutdoors743]

That's nothing in bonsai for a tree that will live for 59 60 years or more

[@murray821]

It was too short indeed

[@shropshireladoutdoors743]

@@murray821 I know what you mean watching a master at work is enthralling I watched Peter chan earlier this week doing what he calls refinement and its nothing like this
