Pruning My Bloodwood, Linden and Buckthorn Tree, The Bonsai Zone, May 2024

[@uhaneokalanijames8029]

i really like the way the buckthorns look, their dark gnarly trunks with their bright green leaves. they have a lot of character!

[@hassimgora]

Fantastic. Gives me a lot of confidence to prune trees back.❤

Nigel, appreciate you working through and explaining the compacting of the long horizontal branch on the Linden...Excellent teaching moment...Same with the pruning choices on the Buckthorn...Thanks...

[@lukasmihara]

All the trees look neat. I like the plans for your Buckthorn!

[@FrostBiteBonsai]

That Bloodwood is really nice looking! Great prunes! The new front you picked is really nice!

El primer árbol, palo de sangre, parece una maravilla de color. El segundo con un carácter tremendo con ese tronco así de maltratado, parece ser un Tilo, árbol medicinal de valor ornamental. El último es un material hermoso. Rescato mucho de tu trabajo que casi no usas alambres para modelar. Salud, Nigel. 🙇‍♂️

hi, Nigel! if you want to kill off buckthorn for good, you can do what we did and wrap the stumps with black garbage bags until the foliage dies. this prevents sunlight from stimulating the tree to regrow. it took 2 seasons iirc but we successfully killed an invasive buckthorn growing in our fence by following this method. 👍

Now looks like a tree that we say left right of the street Mr. NIGEL, more natural

Nigel, I had the pleasure of enjoying this video last night but was too tired to comment... I collected 2 young bloodwood trees from a park and I find that species very interesting... They grow quite vigorously and I've noticed that so far I've realized I have to keep an eye on them.. Great video as usual.

I’ve been contemplating a suburban street penjing. The Bloodwood looks like a perfect street tree! Nice job with it! Cheers Nigel.

Last tree definitely best front is that you marked and after you cut that straight part it will look so good.

Hello

[@HavardStreAndresen]

Maybe a weird question, but Irish moss.... Is it a moss or a grass? Do you, or anyone else know the scientific genus or other name for it?

[@Ficusforev]

Sagina subulata it isnt a moss

[@HavardStreAndresen]
