Maple Forest Bonsai | Small Changes for Long-term Effect

[@m93sek]

Small changes - proceeds to relocate half the forest. Nice one Bjorn. Love this type of Bonsai.

[@ersanseer3078]

I light up with joy when I see a new Eisei-En video

[@jeffhurst4744]

This has greatly enhanced the forest. Your design and work on bonsai is a true inspiration. Impressive forest, anyone would be proud to have in their collection.

[@mrnicefishy]

Always a pleasure to watch Eisei-en videos, and this one was especially good. Subtle changes but note the enhanced movement to the left with what Bjorn did to the Primary Tree - awesome! Winter silhouette is great and looking forward to seeing it pop with foliage.Cameron is getting pretty dang good with mossing-up too!

[@chrisjewel1071]

Great job Bjorn!!!!! I love watching your Japanese maples videos! So beautiful!

[@britaglious]

Beautifully done and shot Bjorn. A wonderful lesson in subtlety.

[@Konamtbdjc1k]

Not going to lie that was pretty cool. I think the trees looked fine and happy and established and personally wouldn’t touched them but I think he did it for content and to teach us more.

[@YouNeedToHearThis]

0:10 Before and After 4:45 - Very impressive!

Sehr Starker Wald ,ich mag deine Bäume ,den hätte ich auch gerne, deine Videos sind jedes mal top, man lernt jedes mal.

[@balesjo]

Beautiful. I love the forest bonsais!

[@robertobreglia2544]

Woooow this forest is simply awesome! I appreciated a lot of your job. Very compliments Bjorn 👏👏👏👏😀

[@DeanKellyBonsai]

I really enjoy watching bonsai 'done' and not rabbiting on about too much. When I watch videos like this I am reminded most westerners who travel to Japan to study bonsai as an apprentice have very little grasp of the language so have to just watch and learn.

[@jeffhurst4744]

WOW, what you did, really did enhance the overall design and appearance.

[@maripagegrubic1875]

Beautiful work.

[@davidcovington901]

After is better, you're right. Appreciate the Elm Lake music to change forests by, too.

Stunning video. Thank you.

great work.

[@DurandCompton]

Wonderful.

[@pelarinbacosiii448]

I like the new arrangement of trunks on the right side of the composition. It's a work in progress, and it keeps getting better and better. It must be nice not having to write and record commentary every now and then. As an observer, it makes me consider what I see and my perception and understanding of what you see. I'll look forward to seeing with leaves in the spring.

[@우리경매장-o2n]

So good!!!~~👍

[@ginalyn11]

very nice. unique style

[@J.oaoHenrique]

Amazing work. 👏🏻

[@DrSticktrick]

Amazing. Could you make a video on how to develop the individual trees into these shapes?

[@EmptyPringlesCan73]

amazing! inspired me to create the trident maple forrest ive been waiting to do

[@daniellarrivee6510]

Thanks !!! good job !!!!

[@abstract200]

SO awesome

[@poitimeusa]

I would love to see what it looks like with all the leaves on I do a little Bonsai myself

[@pacovl46]

A commentary on why you did what would’ve been nice!

The pictures kinda speak for themselves...just watch and learn

[@gregoryh4601]

Well done Bjorn just doing some fine Tune adjustments to make the Forest Better in the Long Haul. Did the Snow Storm hurt anything? Thanks for the Video

[@drrob1983]

Hi Bjorn, I’ve been following a lot of your stuff both on Eisei-en and Bonsai Empire. How have you created this group? There was one tree you added / edited that looked root-bound, as if it had come from a pot perhaps. Thanks for your guidance and that of the community of experienced bonsai artists. The videos are as peaceful as bonsai itself, and a much needed foil to the craziness of covid. Thanks again!

[@pedroreyes5158]

Beautifulllll....

Good change of posición and adding

[@leonkoopmansdutchsyntheticreef]

Awesome 🤩

[@mihaidascalu4639]

This is truly amazing! Approx. how old are the trunks in this forest?

[@devotae]

THE MUSIC IS PERFECT CHOICE!! i cant help but to feel sad for the tree as they made a strong bound to one another, and you are taking them apart, but keeping them close. I almost feel like if you were to completely separate them from each other they would die. but they can still sense each other, feel each other even when they are no longer bound to each other.

[@wadmadhushan4434]

Wow super

[@JCBerner]

Amazing

[@petertoth2103]

Thats pretty!

[@Alex-ip1dn]

❤️❤️❤️

[@StephenTurnerVlogs]

That was a pleasure to watch and to listen to. What was the music called? No doubt this will be one of those videos that will be on forums with a statement saying they "want to see it in six months. I bet it will be ruined".

[@waterlover]

Looks more even now

[@plantdesigns7889]

Are those 'Shishigashira'? Hard to tell in the video. That's one of my favorite varieties along with 'Mikawa yatsubusa' and 'Bihou'

[@orpheus1180]

Most likely these were seed grown acer palmatums rather than grafted cultivars. Grafts can mess up the trunks. Shishigashira will root fairly well so air layers are a possibility. Bijou is a yellow bark cultivar. Shishigashira and mikawa both make neat architectural trees though.

[@plantdesigns7889]

@@orpheus1180 yeah I've worked on several of each. I figured they were seedlings, just that the bark and the short internodes made me think of Shishigashira.

[@DavidEFarner]

This was my first... I am at peace.

[@davidoneill5962]

That’s really lively but do maple leaves not grow to big ?

[@TVIndonesia08]

Luar biasa

[@dadadoom1965]

Driving me nuts. What song is this?

[@40JoCharles]

Beautiful. Thank you for sharing. My son bought me a Bonsai growing kit, I have to grow the trees from seed. 😳🙂🙏🏼💚🌱

[@chriso6884]

Nice work! Only comment would be to maybe put up a side by side of the original/new composition at the end, or fade from one to the other. Are these shishigashira?

[@dougfre2393]

My guess is Sharps Pygmy. Short internodes but fine branching. Not an expert, just a guess!

[@chriso6884]

@@dougfre2393 Shishi has the same characteristics, the internodes are almost non-existent (based on the one I have). I'm not really familiar with Sharps Pygmy.

[@KetKetKucing]

Wow sempurna

[@simonlam4543]

Very nice 👍 wish I could do that, lol 😂

[@thepaperstaggering]

Why is this not bleeding after it gets cut. Surely it’s too late to prune maples. I thought.

[@CharlieForeign]

What kind of Japanese maples are these?

[@SirMattzilla]

Shishigashira?

So sad that Bonsai U is now behind a paywall :(

[@CoopMauKona]

Isn't this the Bonsai he created when he was like 12 years old?

[@Ddraculafactory]

Don’t think so, pretty sure that was a clump styl

[@lrobins4310]

No the one he did when he was 12 was a kobudachi/clump style, with fused trunks, not a forrest.

[@SpaceRanger187]

So fake.....Send it to me to confirm its real😀

Damn the close up shots are really cool, rly shows how majestic this bonsai is and also a very cool pov
