[@angie3504]

Hi from Australia. Thanks for sharing all these beautiful maples. A true inspiration.

[@bonsaibob8253]

Thank you for the tour of the nursery. I could live there for the rest of my life

[@acheronexile]

Its so good to see that the hopeless one was not consumed by despair, but instead was given purpose and a new life to live. Very happy that you show us that its not an instant fix either but a long term healing process.

[@nazguhl11]

i hope u are vigorous like your plant peter! thanks for still sharing your knowledge!

[@RosarioCostanzo]

Your nursery tours are always so pleasant! Thank you for sharing it

[@MidniteSan]

Lovely trees, colorful shirt and miss matched boots made me smile. Those maples 😭, want them all. Thx for sharing Peter..can't wait for the next one.

[@rosethorne9155]

I hope one day I am able to work with and share my passions with other people the way he does. His interest in, and enthusiasm for, bonsai is super inspiring!

[@Ukreefside]

I very much enjoyed it thank you Peter. I look forward to the next one.

[@BeepBoos]

Thank you for your videos! You’re wisdom and insights have helped me grow things successfully for the first time in 40 years :-) 🙏🏼

[@dirtpoorchris]

14:38 I guess you could call it a "Fancy Maple" because its leafs are so frilled and fancy compared to normal Canadian maple.

[@timdady4660]

Wonderful Video of someone in tune with what they do . Thank you

[@RoyaleJester]

Thank you master Chan enjoy every video you make. 👍🌲

[@NerdyShawn]

2:22 Shirt over sweater, you truly are an inspiration.Thanks so much for everything you do to share with us life on the nursery!

[@peterchan3100]

I am the Nerd - not you.

[@aaronhteikk4487]

Amazing that after so many fantastic videos we finally see the watering. Perhaps next we may see another great video on how nutritious is done, since every plants are so healthy.

[@jeraddeal3174]

There is a video on watering and fertilizing from a year ago or so

[@lynnetimmermann3878]

You look great in that shirt!! Love your videos!

[@abake4871]

great video! great t-shirt! I am so happy to get an update on some of the plants. thank you!

[@Anonymouse13]

That Chinese quince on table next to hornbeam had an impression of a man's face on it. Great video. Feel inspired to develop a bonsai garden now.

[@robbybobby6483]

Great video. A day in the life of Peter. I got an actual bonsai tool. An angled knob cutter. I think it will be great to use. I plan on repotting this spring and need to cut back some. Thanks for your efforts, they won't be wasted on me. I learn alot watching you and your helpers.

[@dhanwanteerampersad5363]

Good morning from Trinidad. So much passion in what you do Peter.I love your nursery and maybe one day I will be able to visit.🌄

[@Matt6644]

25:21 Can it be?! the "Shaping a Yew" from two years ago? Looks like its in a different pot now and has taken on much more growth.

[@russelldooley6262]

Accept and deal with it,,love it Peter

[@tigesadventures3880]

wow the maple at 19:39

[@johnhierons1691]

Thanks again Peter for another lovely nursery tour! So much to see, so many wonderful trees. So inspirational. Wow, am looking forward to the next one.

[@natrjack965]

Beautiful collection Peter ..

[@DTRproductions]

It is a really hard decision... but i think this shirt may be my favourite of all the Peter Chan shirts

[@kylek3719]

That water arch though 😍👌.

[@Bonsaiandknives]

You have great Bonsai in your shop and in your Garden. Thanks for the inspiring videos. Question: what kind of fertilizer do you use for you Bonsai? Thanks

[@joshhhuagarcia1890]

Good morning Peter. Watering sounds simple, but if he doesn't do it carefully, he may be in for a nasty surprise. It is also an ideal time to observe the state of our trees. When I have time to spare I do it with a watering can and I notice things that I usually overlook, a nailed wire, an attack of insects, etc.

[@louisetwinberrow5508]

Morning peter another great video x

[@descarroll9089]

Another great video Peter 👍

[@timp1390]

The advice I was given on the ficus was to sit it in a tray filled with gravel and covered in water then sitting the pot on top to help create humidity. Seems to be doing well for my ruby figs

[@fp9596]

Appreciate your work and passion

[@erik2839]

Really good video! Also just letting y’all know there’s a typo in the thumbnail

[@tomsmith2215]

bad press is good press, honesty and realism is appreciated; like trumps rhetoric

[@echomann5257]

I only came to the comments to see if anyone else noticed 🤪

[@davidmurray9844]

Very enjoyable thank You

[@nayramada6622]

I Love to see your videos❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@dirtpoorchris]

19:52 I like how smooth that tree is and all the curves seem naturally soft

[@Test_Of_Endurance]

Great video

[@22Alejandro]

That shirt though! 🔥

[@LizMcNamara47]

Great to see you watering Peter, sometimes the smallest things we falter over, how do you fertilise so many trees? Do you water it on, use granular feed, so many to do?

[@ivanrodden2057]

Glad to see crepe myrtle get some love in this video - they are definitely not exotic here and easy to practice on

[@Oroj1525]

What maple is at 14:48? Its not the name you mentioned. Its beautiful. I haven’t seen it before

[@williamgoodwin9667]

You need to let crape myrtle grow to flower if you trim it won’t flower that year. You can trim but not after summer hits they need the time to shoot and produce flower buds at the ends of the shoots. Hope I can help with this.🙂👌🏼👍🏼

[@StephenTurnerVlogs]

Watering always takes so long! 🤣😭 But you've so many lovely trees to admire as you do it. I'm going to pot up the maple seedlings I grew from your seeds last year. I just hope I can scrounge enough pots together for them 🙏😁 We're never done with garden work. There's always something. That's the great thing and the curse 🤣

[@tobor412]

Thank you for your nice Video, again. I am interessted in Maples. Can you please do a Video from different species? And maybe write the names? Thanks alot and stay healthy

[@alanalcalavillalobos9191]

Saludos 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽están increíbles todos sus bonais, me gustaría ver un tur por sus árboles desde cerca 🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️

[@doolyd]

I started watching your videos and really wanted to get into Bonsai. Then I realized just finding decent stock around me isn't very easy. I also wanted to purchase a nice tree already pretty much done but haven't found one anywhere local. Looking at what you have it amazes me how much inventory you carry. I have decided that it just isn't really feasible for me to get into this hobby, at least, where I live. The nurseries around me aren't very good, they won't sell a lot of stuff, too expensive or what they have are terrible quality. I guess my point is - I need to move to the other side of the pond so I can buy from you.

[@mchlbk]

Nearly all trees can be turned into bonsai. 🙂

[@Blaydrnnnr]

Question: I've always let my trees grow out until early summer before beginning to cut back growth...( depending on what I am trying to achieve..) This year, I have adopted a few specimens that I may not touch at all. ( 2 new Tridents and a Lace Leaf Maple ) Mostly because these are far more advanced then anything I've ever acquired before. They are not styled at all yet, and I have NO idea of what to do with these yet...so when would you start cutting back growth on Junipers and maples? I usually do my hard pruning in the dead of winter.

[@marnegustafson5943]

Crepe Myrtle are the tree of the South (NC) . They grow prolific here and in VA . I MIGHT BE THE ONLY HOUSE on my street that doesn’t have a Myrtle.

[@marcusjohnvaughan5367]

Where should you keep trees that have all the leafs cut off like maple you showed would you keep them inside in really sunny spot as long as the rooms not to hot just warm to recover would that be better then keeping it outside in the rain and cool nights

[@rottenpotato9290]

Can we talk about his water jet aim at 1:24 ?

[@Riverdale270]

I'm wondering... isn't it more efficient to just install some kind of gentle sprinkler, if you're doing this twice a day for months in a row? You must have thought about this, so there's probably a reason why not...

[@peterchan3100]

Sprinklers are very wasteful.

[@Riverdale270]

@@peterchan3100 or some kind of drip irrigation?

[@sanitychelle]

All plants are different, so it's not good to water them all on a schedule. Some will not need as much water as others, so with an automatic system, you'd over water some and under water others. Plus, watering by hand gives you a chance to notice things on individual trees.

[@AIKIDOSILVERDALE]

another great video. typo on the thumbnail tho guys

[@Blaydrnnnr]

About how much is the light filtered in your green houses? I'm curious because this is the first year I built display benches for my 16 young trees, and made a top for it that can "tilt" with 40% sun shade material. The reason is, I work, and dont get home until after 3PM, have no shade in my yard, and the summers here in VA can be brutally hot for weeks at a time, with very little rain the last few summers. So I have the top angled so the trees are in the shade after around 11 or 12 o'clock PM, but I can angle it so that the trees get more direct sun or less. I guess I worry about too much shade bringing on fungus, or too little shade burning my Tridents and Japanese maples, Lace leafs, and Elms. My Junipers seem to do well no matter what....LOL

[@glamdring7515]

I want my potted pine tree to have mosses. How can I do this?

[@shjonwatlington7735]

Peter, I don't think I have ever seen any videos on trees that have weeping style branches (apologies if you have) do you have any opinions on those trees and how they are incorporated into a bonsai style?

[@acer_p_bonsai]

Sir, I love your channel. Maybe you already know this: your unfortunate casualty trees can be sold for a good value for planted aquarium use. Aquatic gardeners use these bonsai skeletons as a base to grow aquatic moss or other underwater plants to make the appearance of a bonsai. Nothing beats a real tree skeleton! And the beauty of your training can “live” on for some time. Maybe a partnership with George Farmer?

[@giulianolovato5859]

Mr.Chen always great inspiration and free lessons, I’d like to ask you if for your experience perlite is better then spagnum moss for cutlings

[@peterchan3100]

Sphagnum moss is better

[@giulianolovato5859]

I’m testing both with my trident maple

[@isaaclui1104]

I wonder what happened to the tree that was split in half? Would be interesting to see an update on that one

[@h.b.1421]

hello, if i remember right Peter Chan mentioned and showed these trees in a video from a few weeks ago, but i'm not sure when it was right now. Btw. right at the end of this video he mentions the smaller one of the two

[@dirtpoorchris]

23:28 I think the tree looks pretty and not ugly. Well like a alien potato that grew into a tree.

[@ofthedawn]

Do you beat the staff with bamboo?

[@dirtpoorchris]

Is double tree a style? I seen the forest style and single tree style and tanuki tricky-merge style. But I dont think I ever seen double-tree style that is meant only for trees that look good in pair of 2.

[@yeyo9404]

How do you order akadama by bulk like that ?

[@Big_Fan_just_generally]

Is it advisable to put root cuttings in moss? Or should you put the freshly cut root directly into soil?

[@peterchan3100]

Soil is OK

[@advertech]

people have no idea how much work a bonsai nursery entails

[@yopage]

Is the water coming into the nursery chlorinated? If so, how does it affect the trees?

[@peterchan3100]

Yes - but not a problem.

[@denvermadison9052]

I remember when I tried virtually watering my plants every day, my water must not have had enough terabytes they all died... sike my trees do great when I follow Pete’s advice

[@peterchan3100]

Ha Ha !

[@JustTokkebi]

конечно понравилось!

[@PolinaS-gq1te]

So much work, so much...

[@crichmond1813]

Are you in the states !?? Would like to purchase a tree

[@mchlbk]

UK.

[@digitaIgorilla]

Peter: You mustn't jet the tree with water. Also Peter: *Jets tree with water* 😂

[@peterchan3100]

There is a subtle difference.

[@henzobonsai]

Joyfull...

[@joedirt2862]

I would probably have an anxiety attack if I was responsible for all of those trees.

[@marcusjohnvaughan5367]

Because you wouldn't keep it in full sun outside if it has not leafs I hope that's right..

[@makewithmegma]

❤👌👍

[@junemoores9156]

I love you

[@0verfiend]

why is purpose so important?

[@PatriciaAnnGriggs]

Busy Bee

[@alexiuonas1736]

Nice video, I met many trees in this video i have a question: Can you make a video in japanese language with subtitles in english?

[@peterchan3100]

I don't speak Japanese - I only know few phrases.

[@KzEProduction]

I love uk Female they are forced to cover up bcuz of temperature unlike Cali girls .. nice trees tho :>

[@Daihatsu_Hijet]

💦 ✂️ 🍃

[@L33ETH]

Chores

[@dirtpoorchris]

11:53 Its amazing how the tree can stay binded for 200 years with all the radiation that exists in the world and then still make fresh perfect shoots when the environment allows it to grow again. I think we should be genetically engineering trees into space pods we can live in that make oxygen for us in outer space. We should try to make trees that can live and float around in outer space and its leafs are on the outside but we can be inside them giving them CO2. Then we wont have to bring so much oxygen with us. ALso: Nice shirt

[@GodofHellFire1982]

I like the videos but the music at the end is so depressing. Can’t you use something a bit more cheery?

[@amandamfds]

the music is too depressing for the god of hell fire, lol. please!

[@mchlbk]

I think the music is absolutely beautiful.
