Corin, you are awesome.

[@ernsttencate6699]

What a beautiful tree. As always quality 👍video.

[@davidhaughan3573]

Great video, Chinese Elm one of my favourites and possibly among the most popular along with the Maple and more widely sold as Bonsai, the mistake a lot of beginners tend to make is to re pot the Elm when they get it home or had it delivered. It is much better to leave it in its pot for the first year or so. You can also inspect the tree by taking it out the pot to make sure it is not too pot bound.

[@harrietb2141]

What a beautiful elm 😍

[@TheBonsaiGarden]

Foist! Beautiful collection of display bonsai 👍

[@jeffhurst4744]

Your pot choice for the tree was very appropriate for it. Just using Akadama for a soil medium - interesting. Oh, love the tree.

[@nazariojuarez3156]

Always enjoying your videos

Dennis I would give my left arm for that tree

[@bonsai4fun]

Hi Corin, impressive trees indeed and thanks for sharing this video. I have been wondering what you suggest to use the „old“ soil/akadama for? Thanks and Cheers Dirk

[@MAMLeers]

Beatiful tree with a lot of character; I also think the pot is beautiful and suits the tree very well. Perhaps a bit off topic but would it be an idea to spend some video time on maintenance of our bonsaï tools? I would be very interested... As always...

[@leeread5487]

Thank you for posting this video. If you don't mind would you tell me what brand Akadama you used. Thank you.

[@katbonsai0]

Hi, you seem to forget the price when showing your latest stock delivery, as always excellent and informative THANKS

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

We dont mention prices as our videos are viewed world wide, we always try to keep our website upto date so check out the website :)

[@kevinmitchell4960]

Do you always use pure Akadama? And not a mix like Pumice Lava etc?

[@peterjohnson350]

The tree has developed well and looks good in the new pot.

[@johnbawden6552]

Thanks for another interesting video. You said you developed the apex of the tree. How did you do fhis?

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

Just by letting it grow and pruning it back to get more ramification over 4 years

[@amysuewest3826]

Hi. Your tree is beautiful and looks good in its new pot. I have a bonsai I pruned to create some shape, and all the leaves fell off. It's a Chinese elm. If like to repot it as well but wonder if I've stressed it enough? Any quick advice? It was a bonsai that was ordered through Amazon and given as a gift.

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

They can drop leaf, and then send new ones out. email us a photo to [e-mail] and we shall try to help you with it. Please try to buy from a specialist

[@pierregissinger4826]

Un grand merci pour le partage!

Hello, am so happy to find your channel 😀 I actually have question...I just received elm bonsai few days ago and am thinking should I repod it...the plant is still in the transport soil and am not sure is it better to stay in it till the spring or I should repotet it in new soil I buyed special for bonsai...The plant looks ok, the soil was dry and I put water, the three was thirsty and the water drained good....am afraid not to kill it if I do the change now....can someone give me advice

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

It is always best to let the tree settle in and adjust to it's new environment before you re-pot.

[@indiana146]

I've just bought 3 chineese elm all 3 need repoting what's best way to go about it

Hey Corin, Bougtt a Chinese elm bonsai from you last Spring, which I keep indoors. Flourished until just recently. A whole new batch of shoots, n leaves come out , n whilst still green, drop off in their hundreds a week or so later. It's done this twice in the last 2 months. It's on a south/ south westerly facing windowsill, fed n watered..... although, I'm finding watering difficult to gauge since we went into winter. I don't know if I'm overwatering, or it's just low light issues because of the time of year. I know you can't give me a difinitive answer.... However, could you offer any advice as to what might be the most likely problem, please. Thank you so much... Toby .. ;0)

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

Hi Toby, best to email us a photo to [e-mail]. So we can advise you better

[@sharkyroman]

@@greenwoodbonsaistudio Thank you Corin. Have mailed you.. Many thanks. Toby.

[@joachimbucherer5030]

Hi. I own a Zelkova bonsai , can i also use pure Akadama for repotting? Thanks.

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

Yes you can!

[@joachimbucherer5030]

@@greenwoodbonsaistudio Thank you

[@darrenfisherman3838]

Probably won’t get a reply but did you grow that in 100% Akudama ? I thought you have to mix it with other things I never knew it can be done like that.

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

Yes, it is a tree from my own collection. All my deciduous trees I grow in 100% Akadama

[@tanna.williams5252]

Been missing you!! Glad you showed up on my feed today. I have got 3 wheeling willows putting on leaves. Can't wait to see them grow this year.

[@01fifer]

Hi I’ve been interested in bonsai for 35years and have several bonsai trees as you can imagine most of them are Japanese maples and many other outdoor trees , birch, zelkova, Scot’s pine etc, anyway I’m looking for a large Chinese elm I’ve had several in the past but I always fancied a large one, do you have any really nice trees in stock?

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

Yes we have some larger ones here at the nursery

[@dennislynn7592]

Your trees are amazing and impressive the trunk on the elm is gorgeous. As a beginner I'm unsure how to choose a new pot, oval, round or oblong can you advise pls. Great work Corin 👍👍

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

Pot selection is based on the tree / trunkline/ shape/ size / leaf colour etc.Check out our video title "why a pot matters"

[@Matt6644]

Is there a reason design/aesthetic wise it was potted on the left side of the pot? it seems most of the trees weight is on the left side and I would have thought to pot it on the right side of the pot to balance that out. Not a criticism, I'm only a novice, was just surprised to see that.

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

Because the base of the trunk and initial trunk movement is from left to right. So its planted on the left to balance that movement.

[@Matt6644]

@@greenwoodbonsaistudio Ok cool thank you

[@flexoidtheoneandonly3033]

What did you pay for that Chinese elm 4 yrs ago?

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

about 900 euro I think
