Liquid amber is a bit underrated in bonsai community. Your videos are always so informative and lovely

[@oversmithfineart]

I appreciate your genuine zeal for life and your tireless effort to share your love of Bonsai.

I enjoyed the lesson and I learned from your demonstration. Thank you Mr Peter from Oregon USA ♥️🇺🇸

[@almac2598]

Thanks Peter. All good stuff.

[@Pawpawlogan]

Excellent. Great video with lots of tips. Learned about: 1. Ramification happens when tips are pruned 2. Don’t be afraid the take risks in order to expose the trunk 3. Use the cycles of the trees during the growing season to help the tree grow to its potential. 4. Peter chan is a legend. GreAt work herons nursery team. Thank you for always letting us take a peak at how the pros do it. Keep it up.

[@jeffhurst4744]

Liquid Amber. Had not seen it full grown or as bonsai before this video. Looked at examples you have and the beautiful fall colors elsewhere. Thinking we want to add one to our little collection. You are still a true Master at design, shaping, and trimming.

[@SubjectiveFunny]

I would love to work there... What a beuatiful purpose in life! Many were there long before we were born, and most will be around long after we are gone.

[@henzobonsai]

Joyful sharing videos

[@MidniteSan]

Huge difference with the liquid amber 😘, I don't have any of that sadly. So many trees to tend to yet so little time indeed. Thx for sharing Peter, and for the bonus with deshojo, oh the mismatched boots made us smile 😁. Until next one. .. cheers ☕.

[@TanglewoodSoapCompany]

In the southern US (Louisiana), the liquid amber is commonly known as Sweet Gum. They're very large trees with beautiful bark, but very large & aggressive root systems. Never plant close to a home as they'll wreck the foundation. They are beautiful all through the year!

[@anilkumarn6091]

Very interesting sir.

[@yopage]

I had to search "Liquid Amber". In the southern U.S., it's our Sweetgum tree. Prized for beautiful lumber and the Fall colors are truly something to behold.

[@debrastiens6216]

Oh my! I had a mature sweetgum where I used to live (moving back soon) and I hated it because of the fruit! Those spikey balls were all over the yard and driveway and made walking difficult. My landlord cut it down (I was SO happy!) but it later came back up next to the building and had runners we couldn't get rid of. How sad I didn't know about bonsai back then! I could have had my own for free! 😭

[@yopage]

@@debrastiens6216 Yes, you sure don't want to walk barefooted under a Sweetgum tree. LOL those spikey balls hurt.

[@debrastiens6216]

[@FlyingWombats]

I'm from Louisiana and we call that Liquid Amber a Gum Tree and they grow everywhere!!! They are a bit of a nuisance although not nearly as much as the invsasive Tallow!!! They are always growing up in our fence rows or making thickets in our cow pastures.

[@Melanieallen968]

Thankyou!!!!!

[@christianschmidt5744]

Imagination goes a long way.. I wonder if you ever work with actual rosemary trees (the herb) for bonsai. I know they are not commonly used but feel they have great potential. Thanks again Peter.

[@AmandaTroutman]

I was wondering the same thing. Wisteria are technically vibes but can be trained to appear as a tree

[@h.b.1421]

rosemary has quite hard and brittle wood which can break easily if you try to wire and bend the branches. So it will be easiest to start with young plants to start as bonsai as younger branches are soft and much easier to bend without breaking them. On the other hand older rosemary plants aren't readily available (maybe in the mediterranean like Italy, France or Spain), same as with older lavender or thyme plants.

[@peterchan3100]

I have not made any decent ones because in the UK - Rosemary plants seldom make thick trunks. In Malta and Cyprus I have seen some Rosemary shrubs with old gnarled twisted trunks and they make lovely bonsais.

[@christianschmidt5744]

@@peterchan3100 Cool.. thanks Peter. I have one from nursery stock that is becoming a little literati with jin for trunk. Thank you Peter for your boundless inspiration and encouragement.

[@christianschmidt5744]

@@h.b.1421 indeed... the young branchlings, once bent, set nice within one season too.. finding or nurturing a chunky trunk is the fun part. thank u

[@Cranbob]

I’ve found that if I plug up the bottom of a training pot and fill it with gravel and a few inches water, it’s the perfect medium for propagating ficus and willow. All though it dose attract bugs if it’s not in a green house

[@thebonsaiarea]

thank you sir

[@buntongm]

Thank you for the endless knowledge Peter! I am forever greatful! I just received 3 cuttings of Dragon Willow from my mother for Christmas. I was curious if willows will grow from root cuttings? For instance, if you repot an established willow and trim the roots, can you take the cut roots and place them on soil to have them grow into small willows?

[@preetivmehta]

Do you suggest any indoor Bonsai plant? As we have no balcony and nor direct sunlight in my home. . Is it possible to make Indian basil (Tulsiji ) as Bonsai? Need suggestions.

[@joshhhuagarcia1890]

Good morning Peter. Instructional video. After pruning the apple trees, do you leave them that stump or do you lower it with the spherical dump?

[@carynludwig6667]

Would you prune in August? What about wiring? I have a new dwarf Alberta spruce. I would love to prune it, wire it, but not repot it. Would leave it in the nursery pot till spring. It is August 18th, and I live where winters are quite severe and long. Would be so helpful if there was information on when to do what on conifers. Thank you.

Hello

[@AdamCross200]

Hate the fact these videos are so far behind, someone might look at the video thinking, oh I have that issue and when they realise the video was like 2 months ago it might be to late

[@peterchan3100]

Some of them are not seasonal, so the timing is not that important - besides my viewers in the southern hemisphere also view them, so how does it matter. My videos teach principles - they are not a guide to show what to do each day - each week or each month.

[@AdamCross200]

@@peterchan3100 yeah that is very true, I’m not referring to each video, nor am I knocking it, everyone at herons seems to do a great job, been there a few times myself it’s lovely! Just saying it might be disappointing for some!

[@AdamCross200]

@@peterchan3100 sorry late reply, been at work all day, didn’t have a chance to reply properly. I’ve been going to herons for about 2 years and spent a fair bit of money down there to, I sure hope this isn’t how you speak to customers with retaliation from the smallest bit of feedback, if you are somewhat business minded you’ll understand that feedback is how you grow your business, I’m not just some idiot keyboard warrior haha, I only stated that I wished the some videos are actually nearer the time especially for the people that look forward to these on each upload, maybe with the same questions/answers to issues they may have at that particular time. Your nursery is rather expensive compared to most other credited bonsai nursery’s in the UK, but I have still spent my money at herons because I’ve enjoyed the videos I have watched and also received some decent help! So I don’t mind putting my money into somewhere if I enjoy the place and what they have. Especially the effects covid has had on most businesses. I’ll choose my spending options better next time.

@@peterchan3100 I have seen and read my same view from hundreds of people weekly, I’m not knocking anything you guys have done, considering you are the main face of herons, your doing a good job at pushing people away, it’s a real shame. I have always told people about the good experiences I’ve had at herons and somewhat defended it, I have heard many stories about herons, in particular the rudeness and I have never experienced that until now. At the end of the day I couldn’t care less about how many subscribers or what your achievements are. That doesn’t define people’s experiences at herons or the service they receive. Which should be the number one priority.

If you asked most folks in Alabama what a liquid amber tree was they'd look at you like you were crazy. That's a sweet gum. They grow like weeds in the South. You do not want one in your yard. They can be pretty but are messy, messy trees.

[@peterchan3100]

What a pity - dont they have nice fall colour?

[@AmraphelofShinar]

@@peterchan3100 As deciduous trees in the Deep South go they are fairly pretty but no one comes to Alabama for Fall colors. They go to New England. There are so many evergreens down here that if you blink you'll miss the leaves that changed!
