I was so moved by your first video back Sam and watching you has always been a pleasure, but means even more now that you're allowing us to share in Seth's memory through these living trees. What a privilege you give us, thank you.

Like everyone one else in this community my thoughts have been with you and your family, I hope you all feel the love from the bonsai community.

You're a likeable guy, Sam. Seth was, too. People enjoy connecting with likeable folks, even just online, especially if they are interested in the same stuff we're interested in. And it's a cool tree, to boot.

Nice to see you back, Sam. I've genuinely missed your videos. You're an endearing young man and I wish you well. Your trees are truly special and your channel is unique in the bonsai space. I'm in the US but have followed AFL for years. I'll start cheering for Adelaide Power! Peace to your home.

Oh mate I can't begin to imagine what you have, and what you continue to go through. My genuine hope is that you will see Seth again one day. As for now live on his memory. “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.” Matthew 5:8

19:00 It is certainly shaping up to being cool and gnarly. Seth would be happy, I reckon. Although he tended to cut less than you do! Bit like Nigel, I guess. Say "that will do", then make a few more cuts . . . Lovely to have you back. 🦋

I totally agree about cameras making a bit of an eyesore stand out. I think the same thing every time I see myself in a photo. I liked your choices on the trimming, I thought they were all good. It makes me want to go out and get stuck into my trees too. But Ive forgotten what I am supposed to be cutting back at this time of year and what Im not allowed to trim. I guess its time for some research to refresh my memory. Thanks for the inspiration.

That tree is really cool! Great cleanup and trim. I'm sure Seth is smiling wherever he is. Can hear him yelling "No, don't cut that one" ❤🩹❤ I know it's difficult. I couldn't imagine the feelings. Glad you can take comfort and support from the comments. Your family has a piece of our hearts too. Seth will never be forgotten here. Will you plant up another section of your property for him? Seth's own forest. Property must be filling in nicely now Eh? Thanks for coming back Sam. Stay strong.

If you can get a kitten so that your dogs will get acquainted to it, as the kitten grows, it will help keep the rats away. My cat and 2 strays that come for food, now I am rat free along with my 3 dogs. Just a thought.
