How to style Black Pine Bonsai - Greenwood Bonsai

[@MrChausner]

Such a great program today

[@phillangton3515]

I really enjoy Corin's demonstration videos. It has rekindled my enthusiasm in the hobby that I have had for 40 or so years. Thankyou.

[@tusanen1850]

This is one of the best tutorials i have seen! Explained thought process as pruning/wiring. So detailed and going through several options what to do and what not. Excellent!

[@kite9039]

Best video I've watched on pine bonsai

[@ernsttencate6699]

I think you are making those videos in an amazing way. Talking the viewer through the procedure. And explaining in a very easy to understand manner. I am a fan. You teach in an amazing way. I learned a lot.👍👍👍

[@lindakuntz7257]

Thank you You stopped and explained in detail the pruning and wiring. I will be applying more to my trees with confidence. Much appreciated 👍

[@monkichiboi4003]

I NEEDED THIS SO BADLY THANK U

[@nigellee9824]

Probably the best bonsai tutorials on you tube…hate when bonsai designers wire without saying a word about what they are doing, and why they are doing it..

[@bobbigbad1963]

I concur with some of the comments, your style of teaching is easy to understand and what you are trying to achieve from the tree, thank you very much and keep doing the video’s 👍

[@williamwoody7607]

Nice work. I couldn’t understand why you chose that aspect for the front but you really pulled it together at the end.

[@conspiraterry7393]

I really enjoy your videos so very much !

[@chriskay9581]

[@Terry-xx2xm]

Great job Corin

[@janegardener1662]

I like how your trees tell you what they want you to do!

[@FR34K_666]

I want to hug this man.

[@willbhm]

😂🙈

[@stevevaughn2040]

That is the most beautiful black pine I have seen

[@Matsuba81]

[@robmartin3312]

Brill work love watching the new shape appear in the trees you work on

[@paulcropper4568]

[@mattbrown3549]

Paul Cropper- I watch this channel regularly along with Heron's Bonsai. May I ask what the other two channels that you watch are please?

[@paulcropper4568]

@@mattbrown3549 aussie bonsai bloke, and the bonsai zone, good long vids , very good

[@telecasterbear]

Good morning, Corin.

[@nigellee9824]

The tree’s doing what it likes…the cheeky bugger….

[@Josef_R]

It wasn't being sensible.

[@TonyHigginsonVlog]

Great instructional video. I just wish you'd videod taking delivery of 1200 trees!

[@asanoen1777]

Like your style Greenwood...

[@MAMLeers]

Again a nice and instructive video: thanks! Helpful for working on my own black pine...

[@briankavanagh7191]

Corin, "the position of the dimples on the pot would annoy me" but the straight left branch @38:38 sticks out on such a curvy tree! Great result.

[@junisar9]

This bonsai very good perfeect

[@sayeedaazahid2877]

Absolutely stunning job.❤

[@dt3828]

A beautiful tree

[@lyndaburrows1548]

Love your videos. You cannot do them fast enough for me. Thank you for explaining the method for branch selection.

[@brianh.santos9295]

Most excellent! Very pleasing as he narrates the methodology of the transformation - educational & entertaining!!!

[@josephbackstrom1679]

Beautiful what did it sell for, love to own one like that

[@almac2598]

Nice, timely video. I have a BP grown from seed, must be 30 yrs plus now, that got away from me a few years ago when I was working away from home. Slowly taming it back to a Bonsai. So lots of good info in this one, thanks Corin.

[@suzannemargolin1737]

Thank you! You are wonderful!

[@melanesianbonsai]

Good job 👍👍

[@jackbilotto4698]

Hi great video. Why do you wire multiple branches with 1 wire as opposed to using a smaller bit for each one? I understand the need to anchor the wire but just wondering if there’s any reason to specifically do multiple branches other than that?

[@peterjohnson350]

Nice job as always. I often struggle when positioning the apex so useful information.

[@aflatminor]

Yet another fabulous tree design!! 😍😍

[@carloscruz6536]

Awesome demonstration I really enjoyed the way you explain,great video 👍👍🇵🇷

[@edmilkovitz297]

I really like watching the wiring process and placement. Great information as you go 👍

[@johnrb9397]

Lovely work as always. Lots learnt by this beginner.

[@robertobreglia9224]

Very compliments for your interesting video,you explain as you work and this is very important! Beautiful pine and good job,thank you very much!🙏🙏👍👍👍

[@markboulton543]

great video, ive got a pine i'm really struggling with, this has been ace , thanks ... ( the way you put the 1st bit of wire on and didnt even have to cut any off??!!! superb, )

[@roberthannigan4382]

Another great video. Thanks a lot!

[@jacktaylor6190]

Nice transformation!!

[@rebelliousbrands3253]

Nice!

[@kimberlyhale5396]

I have a black pine and was needing to know what time of the year can I pull the needles and do some wiring

[@johngilbert939]

Great

[@williamingleby3327]

Brilliant as usual.

[@harrietb2141]

Very nice . As usual.😻

[@Markusmetschit]

How long will the wires be on the tree or when will they be removed?

[@kilthsenarc]

Great video thanks

[@grahamharlow7471]

Superb... Looks great

[@kenfrea]

Another fantastic job! You make it look so easy. I am in the US and would like to know the value of your trees, could you please tell us your price when you have finished it if it is one that is for sale.

[@markwoodard659]

What was that soil mix again?

[@williamscott791]

When you d candle a Japanese black pine do use cupcakes to cover the wound or do you leave it

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

yeah. either cut paste or cupcakes work fine !!

[@greenhawk1592]

Great!!!

[@crownbert]

Please give us some more update about this pine bonsai.

[@martinbarberio7451]

I am having doubts right now watching the video, which by the way the final result looks very good...☺ But... my question is: You can do both... transplant with root pruning and wire to black pines. ? without harming them due to stress, I say. Some recommend not touching the foliage if a transplant was done... at least until it recovers, but looking at this tutorial I see that it doesn't affect them at all to do everything at once...?🤔

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

Yes this was all done at once. Tree was and is still 100%.

[@gregoryh4601]

Hello Corin. Nice design JBP. Just a Thought the large Oval drum Pot is my take. I thought Black Pines are more of a Man Tree and need a Strong Pot ? Corin would this JBP go to the Nursery to recover?Corin could you have Air Layer the Top Have?

[@britaglious]

Came together in the end, didn't it. Preferred that first pot but I understand you need to match the carpet with the drapes ;) She's got a ripe future!

[@mike73miller]

If I wanted to purchase a tree similar to this size black pine what would the price range be?

[@willbhm]

Such another fantastic tutorial, it’s great to watch you work and explain everything as you go through the demonstration, keep up the brilliant work well done 😜

[@amysuewest3826]

I love your videos. May I ask what you potted the bonsai in?

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

one part akadama, one part Kiryu Zuna, and one part Kyodama

[@SuperRichTee]

Nice video, did you do this repot in November?

[@andreasweber1533]

4:37 ;-)

[@pauljack7170]

Did it survive ? Naka said no wiring and repotting at the same time

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

Yes, of course it survived, over a year now, doing great !

[@Yurup]

The biggest drumpot looks the best to me but I understand that that one is a bit to pricey for the tree in its current state.

[@murray821]

I loved that pot, until he mentioned the price 😅

[@frankchacon4034]

Where did you get you pots

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

They were ones we had for sale at Greenwood Bonsai at the time of filming.

[@alessandromassimo5717]

i like your front choice but the right part of the three is too strong right now for that from for me

[@giakon1]

I preferred the first oval vase, however the final result is acceptable.

[@ratanashifu]

I preferred the flared oval.

[@elihugonzalez6870]

the soil mix, What is the mix ao what?

[@markboulton543]

he said what the mix is

[@elihugonzalez6870]

The akadama soil mixed and what else to mix

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

one part akadama, one part Kiryu Zuna, and one part Kyodama

[@monkichiboi4003]

what if you chopped that apex down to that second pad and used it as an apex you would have better movement and more of a bonsai

[@monkichiboi4003]

and better taper

[@brucedeacon28]

👍🍎

[@grahammarshall8325]

Great to watch but would be nice to u work on bonsai the average person has not stunning trees from Japan.

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

Actually this was a tree an average person had grown in the UK not an imported Japanese tree.

[@camadan_alemi]

[@camadan_alemi]

[@sschario60]

I get that artists are reluctant to explain or analyze their art. But... "This branch wants to move over here." C'mon mate... it's an instructional video, is it not? Why are you making the choices you are making?

[@greenwoodbonsaistudio]

I'm not at all reluctant to explain, if I was why would I do these videos. As I move the branch you can see it fit in with the overall design, as the tree takes shape. This was a quick demo, you might find some of our other videos have more detail, to give you a better understanding of how I work.
