That’s the best lunch break I’ve had in weeks!!!! Great work on what will be an amazing tree. Looks so cool already. Love the bark!

[@ArkefthosBonsai]

Thank you Dave! Glad you like the bark as this is staying, contrary to tradition. Have a great night!

[@orchestralmockups]

Will be great to see how this juniper progresses over the next few years!

[@ArkefthosBonsai]

Can't wait for this one. Separate the graft and start building dense foliage. Thank you Steve!

[@susanbossert6833]

I like your technique for removing hardened clay soil. I will remember that. I think the combination of the tree with that pot is perfect.

[@ArkefthosBonsai]

Thank you Susan! Much appreciated the aesthetic input as well! Have a great Sunday!

Beautiful work! It is fun to follow this tree while it transforms. This is the 2nd video of what I expect to be a series about the transformation of this tree.

[@ArkefthosBonsai]

Follow ups are inevitable! Thank you Alex!

Bella pianta non vedo l ora di vedere gli sviluppi cosa ha usato come sub strato pomice o perlite grazie

[@ArkefthosBonsai]

Thank you Emilio! I use that kind of soil for all of my plants. Zeolite, pumice, perlite and some organic pieces soil from the forest above the garden. I don't use akadama, never. Cheers!

[@sergiofernandorossi8817]

Como hace para que perlita no caiga cuando riega? O es solo porque junto con la zeolita no llegan q producir ese efecto al regar ?

[@ArkefthosBonsai]

Generally, after first watering, you lose a few pieces.and then it just stays there. But I did not use any perlite with this one. I've started to use.perlite.only on young trees. This has zeolite and pumice. Cheers Sergio!

[@valanso45]

Great job. Can you please repeat what soil do you use?

[@ArkefthosBonsai]

Thank you Mike! Of course, for this tree was 50% pumice 50% zeolite. Cheers!

[@valanso45]

[@atomartin]

Hi, do you have fig trees bonsai?

[@ArkefthosBonsai]

No I don't, I do have though a wild fig tree in the garden that is more than a 100 years old and it does produces seedlings. I've kept 3 that happen to germinate in my pots and I'm just working them for fun. They are 3 year olds though. Cheers!
