Turning a whip into a cascading bonsai | The Bonsai Supply

[@getintothewildwithjeffruma8777]

Bald cypress are my favorite type of trees. I plant them in yards all the time and have two big ones as bonsai.

Is there any update on how this tree turned out?? Id love to see it

[@christinesmith7851]

Jerome I love the style and shape. 😊

[@juliesmith1874]

Really like the pot

[@bizmayker]

Very interesting technique! Bend don't break! 😆 Well done!

[@DriveSafelyZA]

You just gave me an awesome idea for a mulberry I have growing in a pot. It's very long and skinny and I was contemplating if I should cut it down a bit and try to make a weeping style, but THIS is going to be a much better fit for the tree. I (and I'm sure all the other viewers) would definitely like to see more of these kinds of videos where you explain how to turn a boring tree into something really cool!

[@yonatangal1976]

lovely inspiration right there ! gonna try this myself . THANKS!!!

[@MillsSkits]

What an extreme makeover this was! It looks really neat, and has so much character now.

[@ck8313]

Wow awesome. Looks very dramatic. Great work with bending the trunk. I think the style you chose is very unique. Love to see some updates on this project.

Super cool!

[@lindac446]

Love it!

Perfect timing on this video! I have 7 Bald Cypress whips that I have been growing for almost a 1 1/2 years that I will be using 5 for a forest and was trying to figure out what I would be doing with the others, will keep this in mind!

Wow excellent job I did something like this to my tall pine tree

[@WeareTheBonsaiSupply]

Thank you Josie for your kind words!

[@jimw6621]

Great video!!!

[@airford13]

Very cool!

[@javipipes5124]

Fabulous piece! I tried to do something similar with an unidentified plant growing in my yard. Unfortunately I failed miserably. I want to say it is because of inexperience. I potted, wired, shaped and watered all in about an hour. It died a week later.😢 hoping to prevent the same problem in future attempt.

[@Kim-yl7yg]

Awesome..

[@carloscruz6536]

Tropical trees next

[@Nuggettfaz]

Aussie trees just don't let you do that, but very cool to watch.

[@judithstodola5521]

Wow! Just Wow! That made me very nervous, LOL! It is awesome! I love the movement! Perfection!

[@WeareTheBonsaiSupply]

Thank you Judith, glad you like it!

[@brendakirk7250]

I’ve been wondering how you get the wire off when it’s ready to come off?

[@maazansari6143]

The plant doesn't have to go to chiropractor now😅 Btw its neat!😍

[@WeareTheBonsaiSupply]

I have to go to the chiropractor hahah

[@mattbrennan647]

Great looking project, Nice pot. I just wish it had feet so it would sit more evenly. Thanks

[@michaelmccarthy4077]

I kept waiting for it to accidentally snap, glad that didn't happen. I'd have like to have seen it done in a non-natural styling, like a corkscrew. Maybe you could do it just for fun?

[@alvinwhitley1490]

Is a whip just a single tall skinny plant?

[@jballenger9240]

What about rafia and wire?

[@WeareTheBonsaiSupply]

Hey J! Yes you can absolutely use raffia and wire, you can also use black electrical tape and wire. This tree was so flexible, I didn’t feel the need of using anything in addition to the wire.
