Great instruction, I just pruned my larch and will go back and look again to see if I can do a bit better job.

[@nillysbonsai]

Thank you Sharon!

I'm aiming to pick up some Larch trees this year, so this will help! Thanks for making this!

[@nillysbonsai]

Glad this was helpful! You’ll thoroughly enjoy working with larch it’s a great species.

[@dreamingofbonsai]

@@nillysbonsai thanks I’m looking forward to it!

Sounds like a early spring for England we’re having a good old fashion winter 🥶 everything still frozen happy bonsai making cheers 😮

[@nillysbonsai]

It’s seems a little unseasonably warm so definitely trending with caution ⚠️ we’re not normally far behind you guys so we could expect a dip in temps yet! Thanks for stopping by 😊

[@growclipbonsaiforseniors1951]

Nice looking trees. Now will the cuttings root? I never tried on my forest. Hopefully they have survived the winter outside from the -8F/-22C that we had. I know that one of the 3 was dead in the forest setting last spring, but I left it in for a natural setting.

[@nillysbonsai]

I hope they pull thru for you Tom. One dead tree in a forest as sad as it was to lose. It could make a great feature in keep with a realistic scene.

I really enjoyed that Sam. A great video and lots of experience and information. How is your brother's larch doing? I think it was a larch but can't remember now 😅

[@nillysbonsai]

Thank you Alex, we all learn by mistakes and experiences! His golden larch did well last summer currently overwintering in a cold greenhouse. Hopefully I get to work on it this year he’s very untrusting of me for some reason :0 he appreciates bonsai but has very little idea of bonsai concepts and thinks I’m being Harsh In my decision making. That had to be pushing out the pot before I was allow to intervene 🤣

Definitely weird weather atm, saw some cherry blossoms trying to come out yesterday 😮 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@nillysbonsai]

That may well have been a winter flowering cherry or blackthorn. We’ve had many a sunny day encouraging them out 🌱

Remember the old Monty Python shows? You have to do a 5 second video entitled: The Larch. Just like it was done on the show. That would be cool.

[@nillysbonsai]

This was a little before my time. Although a timeless show to many I will familiarise myself with said scene and see what we can do 😁

[@growclipbonsaiforseniors1951]

@@nillysbonsai Excellent! I know you can make one. Simple. That was a good show. The reruns should still be out there for you or on youtube. I think they came out with the first shorts.

[@soberhippie]

Reminds me of those Monty Python links in one of their episodes: "Number One: The Larch. The Larch. And now, Number One: The Larch"

[@nillysbonsai]

Your the second person to make this link! I will certainly familiarise myself with this scene. Thanks for watching 🌱
