In this part 1 of the Shohin Series, bonsai master David Easterbrook gives a workshop on how you can transform a Grewia occidentalis which is a species native to South Africa and turns it into a very pleasing small-sized bonsai tree.

Interesting as always! Greetings from Sweden 😊

I have watched many other Bonsai experts but none are like you David! I love the way your personality mixes with your immense amount of knowledge

Thanks for another awesome video! Always such a treat. You might consider slowing down slightly while wiring and zoom in on the tree, show which branches you are anchoring wire to and why, how etc. just my opinion. As a beginner those finer technical skills are what I find most challenging. I appreciate the great content!

That is one beautiful tree. And very glad you are posting more videos.

Hi David. As a past member of the Ottawa Bonsai Society, I had the pleasure of participating in one of your seminars on Juniper shaping many years ago. I look forward to your videos on KZbin.

This is the first time watching your video's i have a Grewia here in Australia mine flowers all year round, kept outside with all my trees. The winter nights can get to around 2 degrees. They are sheltered from the strong afternoon summer sun and from the winter frost but this one keeps pushing thoes flowers. Great video will be watching more

Great video; …very helpful. Once the moss is applied, how does the watering happen?

[@eriklheureux7879]

In California, that pot would cost me a $100 at least, if I could get anything that nice.

Hi David,,,what is the best substitute for akadama.....thanks Lito

[@bonsaitime621]

Hi David. Do you use peat/perlite in the nursery pots to grow those out?

[@rebelliousbrands3253]

Nice demo. Nice little tree. You need better camera work though. We cant see what you are doing.
