Japanese Larch Bonsai Restoration with Graham Potter - Part 1- Roots - Kaizen Bonsai

[@TheBonsaiZone]

Root into rock bonsai, so cool and I'm sure it will be very happy in it's new pot!!!

[@NotAnotherBonsaiChannel]

Excellent looking tree Graham and its amazing to see how this tree has survived with so little soil and you have to admire those roots! Now in a bigger pot, good soil and a little moss, this tree will grow like a weed! Looking forward to seeing this next time!

[@gregoryh4601]

Awesome work Graham truly one of the Best Bonsai Artist.

[@ishamakkusu]

What a breathtaking composition. I love the image of a couple, reliant on each other to hold onto their world. I look forward to seeing how it progresses with your TLC

[@jameslangschied7900]

With the proper care and attention presented here, I can imagine this wonderful bonsai will make it to the end of the century. Hoping anyway. I'm sure the original owner would be proud of the loving care Graham is offering.

[@murphyorama]

Cracking job Graham. Love to see this tree after it's pushed a bit of growth.

[@gromageindustries6745]

A beautiful tree and wonderful video. I love the work you do Graham 💚 i wish you a fantastic growing year 🙏

[@norfolkyeti]

What a beautiful tree to have in your care in your lifetime. Look forward to seeing it’s progress.

[@Pflanzenpapa]

Thank you 😃

[@astounded]

Just watched this vid again and am even more impressed. This is truly a unique planting. Hope to watch it flourish in the coming years. "Venerable" seems the best way for me to describe this work. "Awe" is what I feel when looking at it. This piece is a treasure.

[@XaviersBonsaiRetreat]

Perfect timing as always. I have two smaller Larches growing on Tuffa rock and I am about to put a third onto the group. Up till this point I hadn't recongised that the roots could easily grow into the rock. I was going to tap out a lit bit of a hollow first and then secure the new tree in place and hopefully let the roots grow into the rock over time. Amazing video

[@jakesnelling8331]

Those roots are outstanding for me. Only time can create those.

[@ernsttencate6699]

Lovely larches. Like them even better in the bonsaipot.

[@razor2ts]

Great tutorial Graham, thank you! I've used your Kaizen soil mixes for 5 years now, all of my trees love it :-)

[@suer666]

Great to see a new video. ❤

[@Emtbtoday]

Amazing Graham, really looking forward to seeing this later in the year, and think it looks much better in a pot now! Love a larch this is incredible!

[@joegarland4885]

What fantastic old Larch pair on a piece of tuffa rock. I have Lonicera growing on a piece of Tuffa which have grown through the rock into a layer of soil, then in a shallow bonsai pot , it was created well over ten years ago no were near the amount of time of this pair, I have changed the pot once since it was created, the roots appeared to be in good health so I left them alone, I think this year I will slide it out of the pot and check the roots and refresh the soil, so Graham thanks for the video, in a way it has given me a kick up the backside to get on with it. The two trees on mine grow like weeds they put on growth almost overnight. Hope we see you do more videos.

[@stuartbaines2843]

Wonderful pairing 👍 It will be Fascinating to see how you will care for it in the coming years 🖖

[@tariel66]

Glad to see that you are back , strong and wise. il Castoro

[@Bonsaicrazy]

Great video Graham This tree will be lovely when your done 👊👊 It’s inspired me with my double trunk larch 👊👊👊

[@veganpullingpower6]

Wow awesome tree g .I 21:52 love watching your videos great knowledge✌️.

[@casaroccafamilyking]

Thank you for sharing this one! Loved it! Superb looking tree.

[@claudioestrada1671]

Beautifull work and care.

[@astounded]

This planting is already gobsmacking! Nowhere to go but upward and onward!

[@kennethmitchell7888]

A big old beast! The tree, of course 😂 Nice attitude to saving neglected trees with potential.

[@mikeswain9085]

What a brilliant tree and video Graham, thanks for sharing. Really great to see you using so many 'specialised' tools too, hammer, cold chisel, hand brush and especially the 'mini' trowel at 18:50. I want one of those, what was it originally?

[@phillipwaterman5721]

Nice job graham beautiful old bonsai thanks

[@gamer1672]

Love your videos and trees lol

[@BlackCountryKoi]

Stunning larch 👌🏻👍🏻

[@Dave67836]

Amazing Graham , I love the roots and the rock is so interesting in its form and scale to the tree very nice indeed.

[@bonsaiexpression]

Even with all the imperfections it's a beautiful tree.

[@cesarurb]

[@mcbabs7495]

Super travail, merci pour la vidéo!

[@19mychaellee71]

Nice hat, G.

[@lorchid23]

Lovely old specimen! I’m happy to see it’s now in the care of such knowledgeable & capable hands. And may I please ask, why you have what looks to be a band around the two fingers on your left hand? Just curious.. ❤

[@GrahamWPotter]

Knackered my little finger, dislocated or fractured or something stupid. Set my lawnmower on fire and did it dealing with that as you do. Don't have the time to spend all day and night in the fucking NHS hospital so I'll just live with it.

[@lorchid23]

@@GrahamWPotter - Ouch!! Must’ve taken quite a whack, as you have very large, strong hands. Your finger will probably always whinge whenever the weather turns particularly cold & dreary. I had a horse step on and break my big toe decades ago, and I didn’t seek medical help. It aches like hell when the weather turns nasty.

[@roberthannigan4382]

Amazing.

[@terryc8674]

A massive thank you for sharing this, absolutely excellent 👍👍👍 What type of fertiliser did you use on the rock and roots before it was repotted ?

[@bonsaigarden5748]

Thank you for sharing.

[@KennetDeBondt]

I feel happy for the tree.😊

[@kupritbonsai]

Bonsai on the rock yang sudah sangat istimewa, video yang bagus sahabat

[@thegreenmanalishiyamadori371]

Thank you Sir🙏🙏🙏

[@peterjohnson350]

Nice job. Look forward to seeing the progress in the future.

[@Handless_handle]

Incredible

[@missaleromanum5614]

Remarkable specimen

[@mehdinaeimi697]

ممنونم آقای گراهام عزیز

[@dandjwhelan4901]

Great stuff as always Graham. You mention the tress had been incorrectly pruned in the past. Cheeky question, how should a larch be pruned to avoid such mistakes?

[@isidroalbertgarcia2396]

Graham, we missed you. Harley Davidson forever.

[@neilatkinson174]

I'd like to see how these trees recover in a year or so

[@rolleone6171]

Brilliance

[@Digital_Immortality]

thanks for vid!

[@parth801]

How are you doing sir?? after so long ,hope yoy are healthy and fine 😊

[@leeriding8932]

Good video Graham how do you keep the birds from pulling up the moss

[@Pete-z6e]

I use plastic bird netting myself if required.

[@soberhippie]

Will the rock eventually decay completely? What can be done then?

[@bonsaisn]

👍❤❤❤❤

[@peterkruize8804]

I have a question😬 even the tree is healthy, it’s still weak after the repotting, even didn’t cut any roots. I see the tree is full blooming. Is it not better for the tree to cut all the flowers while it is recovering? I ask this becourse i know the tree is pumping a lot of energy in the blooming?🤷🤷
