My Bonsai Bench Tour, The Bonsai Zone, June 2021

[@matteotortiello3022]

Classic Nigel's tree-tour be like: "it's doing really well!"

[@dk2614]

Nigel, it's something else to see a person who can look at a tree(Gingko) and verbalize to your viewers about your concerns about it surviving the summer and then hoping it will make enough energy to make it through to spring. There is really a great lesson for your audience. It doesn't go unappreciated.

[@pattin4015]

That is an awesome collection!! Wow. Your videos inspired me to place into tidier pots my myrtle, ginko, bougainvillea and grapefruit trees! Can't wait to see how they grow this spring.

[@SUBRATBARUAH21]

Hi Nigel. I was very excited about your Ta Prohm temple project. Please don't give up on that one. Best wishes😊

[@mattbrennan647]

Now I’ve got an incurable case of bench envy. Just beautiful. Keep growing. Thanks

[@-ChrisD]

I absolutely LOVE the "bench tour" and update videos!! Thank you for sharing!

[@TheBonsaiZone]

Thanks Chris!

[@user14088]

Amazing video Nigel 👋👋👋 This is very relaxing and i love your bonsai trees❤️❤️

[@MaybeBonsai]

Everything is looking good Nigel! I have also got a lot of pre-bonsai thistles in my backyard that are fighting hard for a spot on my bench

[@davidclark5723]

Looking good Nigel. I wish I had as much space to set up benches for my trees.

[@IzonHow]

So many beautiful trees :) Thanks for another video Nigel!

[@alicer3423]

You have so many trees. You must have a lot of energy to do all the things you do and still keep up all those trees.

[@redzepplin7397]

Great video, so many trees, and they are all doing great, lots of work there

[@3apa3a4eva]

Thanks for the update, Nigel! I am rooting for your poor ginkgo. :) If I may give you a piece of advice (please feel free to ignore it): when taking cuttings from trees and shrubs with large leaves, consider reducing every leaf to half, all leaves but the top pair. That would reduce the need to draw up water to keep turgor pressure in them. That is what you observe on your lilac and fiddle ficus cuttings - there is not enough water coming up to sustain their needs. Try and see if it helps (I used to root F. benjamina that way, and now do that with my fuchsia bushes and rhodos). Anywho, have a nice day!

[@jonathanaristone2468]

Always a treat to view your garden

[@TheBonsaiZone]

Thanks, I hope you are doing well Jon, we'll have to get together again this year!

[@mattaustralian6584]

All looking good. Nice vid Nigel thanks

[@bonsaibuenobyalexb]

Your trees are looking good Nigel.. 👍👍👍

[@ThrillerBonsai]

What an amazing collection 👏🏼👏🏼

[@marysoldeeley2218]

So many fantastic trees!

[@MrJcalvino]

That Serissa is a treasure

[@TheBonsaiZone]

Thanks!!

[@selfmade6142]

I am happy to see the premiere from the beginning today. Nice bonsai and good job

[@RosarioCostanzo]

Your benches tours are always amazing. Happy you have your covid shots! Be alright

[@romino23]

nice collection Nigel! you might benefit from adding large wheels on your benches, so you could move them to sunny/shady area easily with your trees on them..

[@Tybold63]

Indeed everything looking good and I love how the city penjing planting getting better each time I see it .

[@bonedrybonsai4109]

Plenty to keep you busy Nigel, thanks for the updates!

[@SequoiaElisabeth]

Excited to see the Sequoia seeds growing well, for obvious reasons.

[@TheBonsaiZone]

Thanks Elisabeth, I've moved the seedlings out of the greenhouse today, I had a few wilt and die off, I'm hoping the outdoors helps!

[@mariapietroniro7479]

Crown of thorns. Wow. Beautiful Bonsai Really Really. Thanks 👍 Love Maria Montreal Canada 😻

[@TheBonsaiZone]

So nice of you, thanks Maria, I hope it continues to develop over the upcoming years!

[@lukasmihara]

Nice tour, Nigel!

[@TobyJin]

Your collection's looking good. I thin your Ginkgo may grow suckers from the base to regain strength. Your seedlings are also looking very promising.

[@crazybrave6913]

you have such a beautiful garden dude.

[@batanghardinero1539]

nigel just wanna ask where's the ribbon root ficus experiment?😅

[@Thimbrethil]

I think it was repotted into soil some time ago

[@smack09]

Need a part 2 of this tour!

[@jameswalker3416]

I got the chance to go to the upper peninsula of Michigan and got to see a bunch of mature thujas and now I want one.

[@patsfreund9164]

Love the village penjing! I've never seen that one before today. I'm so astounded that you remember all the names for each bonsai as you speak about it. WOW! I'd love to see how you work with the rosemary and propagate it. It is a very difficult plant to root from cuttings. Glad to hear that you got your 1st COVID shot. Take it easy for a day or so. Both of us have been vaccinated for months - no reactions. Looking forward to your next video.

[@farmert9679]

Great tour of the bonsai yard.

[@LemonsGraphics]

Hope the storm today missed you and your trees nigel

[@sanggarbonsai1142]

Nice bonsai my brother👍👌 Dont forget next time see you again👌👍 Good job

[@DakotaDS]

Thanks, Nigel!

[@VinciecBonsaiJourney]

I really dont know how you find the time to grow all this! Such a great collection, thank you for sharing 🙏

[@negativegains]

The Video we all been waiting for...

[@CaptainNusantara]

Very inspiring, thanks for sharing. Regards from Indonesia 🤩

[@OliverJazzz]

Thank you for the great tour! 🌱

[@laurakotzbauer4573]

Hi Nigel! I live in Texas, but love the larch trees. I looked them up on Google and they love the cold climates. I guess that leaves me out. I really love them and the beautiful little trees you make from them. One of my hobbies includes making miniatures and it’s been a passion of mine to try to create a forest penjing and include miniatures that I create. Any suggestions?

[@farmert9679]

Nigel. Looks like: Elm Cockscomb Gall. The gall houses an aphid which asexually produces more aphids. I would quickly destroy those leaves and bag and dispose or burn those infected leaves as soon as possible.

[@geporter2032]

So many beautiful trees ❤️ When will you be back working on the plant room? I’m looking forward to it!

[@ashleybonner5423]

Hey Nige, good vid as always! The plant that looks similar to the pine succulents I sent, I'll try to find an id for you. It definitely doesn't appear to be the same species though. I'll let you know if I get a positive ID. - Ashley

[@nigellee9824]

Love watching your videos, because once I’ve watched your videos, I can go out and look at my trees , and appreciate just how good mine are in comparison.

[@MrRhovanion]

hi, any idea how to sell a bonsai?..50 yr old orange tree... getting kinda big, no more room for it here...

[@AlamBonsaiLovina]

Thnks for sharing Greating from 🇲🇨🙌

[@CoNkOrE]

Have you thought of using hanging moss of some kind in any of your plantings? At least for a showing it might be really cool like an Olympic National park feeling or a marshy atmosphere

[@domanicbower4744]

I see your bougainvillea is looking lovely and flowing too! How do you get yours to flower or is it a seasonal thing? I know mine have flowers as Iv seen them flower before.

[@josephwatts2341]

Maybe try putting the ginkgo under a grow light over the winter extending it’s grow time?

[@zackau9807]

The fiddle leafs do get pretty small leaves eventually, about the size of a hass avacado (some even smaller) One I water has a big multi trunk like 9 by six inches wide and its like 2.5 ft. tall, lol, but really small leaves, so you can have hope :)

[@TheBonsaiZone]

Thanks Zack, that gives me hope for the future of the tree!

[@satyr7499]

Any tips on transplanting oak seedlings? My last two attempts failed within a week.

[@bhargavtank3784]

Nigel remove all leaves before planting ur cuttings. That will increase survival probability of cuttings. I have experienced it. Earlier i was used to plant them with leaves on just like u.

[@TheBonsaiZone]

Thanks, a great tip!!

[@codygarrettrodman]

Good morning Nigel!

[@TheBonsaiZone]

Good morning Cody!!

[@stevelacroix2917]

Nigel, I'm considering bringing my Japanese Maples north next Fall. I live in Montana and this would be the first year doing this. Any tips??

[@RealMeatPie]

These are aphid galls n your American Elm tree. 18:09 I believe its Hemia Salicifolia

[@BostonBonsaiIdiot]

Oh no, sorry about the Ginkgo...hopefully it pulls through.

[@alicer3423]

If that thistle flowers and seeds you will have them all over your yard. A real pain to get rid of them then. I got some from wild bird seed and have been fighting them for more than 10 years.

[@michaelwhyte8529]

Hey nigel, hope ur doing really well:)

[@braedon8334]

You have some of the most beautiful trees I’ve ever seen but but but but but but but why do you have a thistle????

[@nigellee9824]

You clearly haven’t seen many bonsai, if you think that they are good.

[@Bearbok]

so happy you got your second vaccine shot

[@bazejjaworski9021]

What about lilac? :)

[@howardmcgraw472]

[@entyropy3262]

Why don't you paint this row of posts with that tar paint, to at least make them resistant enough, to stay in good shape until you feel like errecting the second row of posts ? Your progress is so slow I honestly doubt, we will ever see the big greenhouse in use at all. There might already be boring insects inside the posts, you should really buy some tar paint and secure them, so at least this work you have already done won't go to waste.
