Thanks for the birthday mention Nigel! Was definitely a wonderful surprise from my girlfriend as she knows how much inspiration and knowledge I get from your videos. Keep up with the great job you always do! Cheers mate

Joan is a cutie pie. Sleeping in her little bed staying warm.

15:18 We still have significant bushfires burning; our weather is not that great either!! Never-the-less, Happy New Year, Nigel!! 🔥❄🥂🌲😊

Hello Nigel, it looks like Joan has a keen interest in the tree, she might become a Bonsai master 😂 I subscribed to Zak chan. Merry Christmas & happy new year to you and your family, + the feathery & the furry ones. Much ❤From BC.

I’m crying 😂 Joan certainly is the center attraction on this video.

[@Steves_Backyard_Bonsai]

Bravo on the transformation of these 2 young Pomegranates into excellent pre-bonsai. Can’t wait to follow them.

[@jballenger9240]

Happy Almost New Year to All in The Bonsai Zone!!! Would applying rubber cement to the cuts on the 2nd pomegranate help reduce the type of scaring you pointed out on the first tree? Thank you.

[@growclipbonsaiforseniors1951]

Joan is your best friend. Always there to help you.

[@DiscotopiaUk]

That 1st tree, personally I think it would make a beautiful Shohin sized bonsai. Very pretty as it is right now

Greetings from Spain, we love Johnsie

Um gato bonsaista 😂❤

Pom #2 has some cool coarse moss on it. Tree looks good after the pruning. Spring growth ahead.

[@growclipbonsaiforseniors1951]

Pom #1 will grow nice for you come spring. Great clip and grow pruning.

[@Ben_Neill]

Loved the thumbnail

[@OjaiBonsai]

Another good year.Thanks for everything

[@kathyvettraino2267]

Joan is a good kitty. Love her ❤

[@jasonwebeck9901]

Thank you for sharing. 🙏🌄

[@baldyeti]

Fantastic work. Thank you, good sir

[@paulschaefer5241]

That is an extremely unusual cat. You've had him out there for a week and you still have plants on the bench.

[@jollyrancher7165]

If you ever want to grow new pom's those whips you got from the first tree strike very easily as cuttings. I had over 30 whips from one tree one year and I tried to do a fused tree with them back when I had space to grow trees. Unfortunately, I had to move before they had gotten very far and had to lose my collection but they had started to fuse quite well after only a couple years. If I ever get a place with lots of space to grow I might try it again...

[@deepanjanbanerjee3491]

Joan nearly got her tail pruned off😀

[@Tybold63]

With all these scars and deadwood, they almost like old appletrees. Gives some challenge for sure but the flowers are quite beautiful.

[@TheWatchpoplars]

The smaller one looked exactly like some of the mature White Poplars Ive seen in Oregon and in pictures! They have the leaves of maples except with a dense layer of white trichomes on the underside.

[@apostlewoody]

The cat has a big personality.....

[@Dave_0993_I]

The Bonsai Joan.

[@avinashjain1951]

Wow

[@MyronRedding-k8x]

I usually plant the cuttings from poms and many will root.

[@bettafreak1]

Is Joan spayed? If not the Stratford Humane Society has a spay and neuter clinic that both kitties could go to so they don't have any more kitties. Great video as always Nigel!

[@KennetDeBondt]

Mine also stay outside: they sure can take -3°C.

[@TheBonsaiZone]

Thanks Kennet!!!! Good to know!!

[@dahlmasen3084]

How come you got some many of Xin’s trees?

[@Kristinytree]

I like 1:25 for a front, lol

[@theblindfuerie668]

Could try make whomping willow from harry potter.

[@shahesfelazi8549]

Just don't prune the cat ... kahkahkah

[@n8tyler]

Foist...
