Pruning My Douglas Fir Trees, The Bonsai Zone, Dec 2022

[@mattbrennan647]

Love those trees. It’s amazing they survived their journey to “The Zone” Thanks, keep growing

[@growclipbonsaiforseniors1951]

Cool trunks! I am glad the ratcheting pruners worked out well for you.

[@BlueJayBonsai]

The main tree is really looking good! 😍 It will make an amazing standalone bonsai eventually. 👍🐦💙

[@ola4150]

Those tall ones would make a nice couple planted together 😊

[@DavesBonsai]

Tough work on those trees. I like the end result!

[@patsfreund9164]

Nice work on those Douglas firs. Especially like the largest one. Well done.

[@balanjayf9368]

I love the foliage on Douglas firs, yours are looking great Nigel.

[@growclipbonsaiforseniors1951]

Great advanced pruning techniques by a great Master Surgeon, Dr Nigel Saunders. Excellent!

They're looking better little by little Nigel! I love the smell of Douglas Fir trees. They are the trees we had as our Christmas trees for many years... Lisa

[@marysoldeeley2218]

Trees with a story! That old thick one sure looks neat!

[@betulaobscura]

Nice pruning!

[@ricklandaubonsai5506]

They look MASSIVE!

[@bonsai.projects]

Great trees.

[@Dylan-ok6ft]

I’m always amazed at your patience and ability to visualize the future of the tree! I’m still working on these skills 😅

Hello Nigel I read that like pine and yew you should prune in early summer and also remove old needles to get more buds. Happy new year Kennet

[@jasongannon7676]

I think this coming year will be the year of the forest for me.

Here in western Oregon, USA the mighty Douglas Fir grows abundantly. I've got a few small ones in bonsai pots. Your tutorial will be very helpful for training them. Thank you.

Happy new year Nigel and all in the channel 🥳🌼💐 from India. 🌸🎉🎊

Hi Nigel, great videos as allways, hopefully, joining you soon on KZbin soon, been trying to make videos, 10 years later fingers X

[@bjrockensock]

you put a photo in at 15:03 which has two boulder peaks amongst the tops of the firs. This would make an interesting composition for a bonsai fir forest with the two peaks peaking above.

It's amazing to me. When you got those trees I was thinking, "How do you deal with those branches"? Slowly I'm starting to understand what you are doing :-)

Sorry about that Nigel. Accidentally deleted my comment. Think I read in the notification they were kept inside? Surprising. Granted, the pots are all pretty shallow. I've got two junipers, a hinoki cypress, and a dwarf Alberta spruce roughing it outside this winter. Guess we'll see how they do

[@TeamFishweights]

Whats your postal address please Nigel?
