For the Katsura maple, maybe grow out a long shoot next spring and then thread graft in a branch to help break up that straight branch on the right…….. IDK…….? Just an idea. Great video, friend, thanks for sharing your garden with us! Take care and have a blessed day

[@TheBonsaiGarden]

Thanks for the suggestion. 🙏

I feel lucky to have seen some of these maples in real life :)

[@TheBonsaiGarden]

😀👍

Love love this video and its length ❤️ Maples are my absolute favourite and yours are stunning! If mine make it through our cold winter, I hope to start more development of branches and placement, with your expert knowledge. Thank you

[@TheBonsaiGarden]

Sounds great! Thank you Judy 🤞

Hello Jason. Viewing from above is not something I would have thought about, but it makes sense. Beautiful tree you have there.

[@TheBonsaiGarden]

Thank you Mary. 🙏

[@jennifertucker107]

I hope you will show us what it looks like under the moss on the maple group planting.

[@TheBonsaiGarden]

I will be sure to do that when I repot these trees 👍

[@briancoulter38]

Maybe consider on the corkscrew tree Taking out the entire leader part, as it has large internodes, and the clump area you were cleaning up, could become the new leader

[@TheBonsaiGarden]

Thanks I will take another look with this in mind 🙏

Loving these really long uploads! I purchased a Katsura last year from Tesco for £2.50! It's just a 3ft whip at this point, but it's so vigorous. Crazy how cheap you can get some of the ungrafted cultivars for. I was planning to do this kind of structural pruning on my Japanese maples in February, would that be okay? Is there any difference between doing it in late winter vs late autumn/early winter?

[@TheBonsaiGarden]

You can do this work in February, before the tree comes out of dormancy. You may experience a little due back now, and less in February. The main point is to do it while you can see the structure. 🙏

🎉 the corkskrew dojo maple may start having knuckles from growing points if you let more then two branches from grow from one point. I noticed that they was quite a few still left any reason why?

[@TheBonsaiGarden]

Thanks.

[@kwieting]

Do you think from your experience that if you prune now, you will have longer internodes with the first flush of growth in the spring than if you wait until the buds leaf out and then prune? I hear different opinions and wonder what your experience has been.

[@TheBonsaiGarden]

I can’t say that I have noticed a difference, or see a horticultural reason why that would be the case.

[@andrewclack4881]

unusually for my old cut leaf maple the dead leave are still refusing to drop. It's been that way for over a month. I was really worried for a long time as the substantial nebari has been showing clear visible signs of dieback. There is obvious green wood at most of the extremities of the tree so I hope it may be fine although I may do an emergency repot in spring to check for problems.

[@TheBonsaiGarden]

Good advice to check the roots in spring.
