    Yet another instructional and inspirational video Peter. Thank you for your selfless dedication to imparting your knowledge to budding bonsai artists. Your videos never fail me to be inspired. A Merry Christmas to you and all of your team.

    Nice to see how far those trees have come. I was in my local bandq store looking for Junipers when I came across some trees in large pots they were Beech, Hornbeam and Hawthorn with fairly thick trunks on looking closer there seems to be 3 trees of each planted in the same pot so for 1 pot with 3 trees was £10.00 so I bought 3 pots and will wait till the spring and take a look. They were all just about 3 feet or so in height with good branch structure on the Beech and Hornbeam.

  4. Dave Mead

    These trees look amazing Peter! and considering where you sourced them from and how long it’s taken , I think they all look great 👏👏

  6. James Langschied

    Thank you for the wonderful videos that have helped so many bonsai artists around the world. Happy Christmas from a very frigid Kokomo, Indiana.

    It's hard to believe it's been 3 years since you got these beech trees and they looked dead, now they are thriving and making some amazing bonsai projects

    Anybody know the link of the video where he got does trees with dry leaves 🍃??

  10. Cristian Branea

    Glad to see the beeches again! Man, is no hard to get nice radial nebari on beeches, with many roots at the same level..

    I have a small grove of Beech trees on my property. I live in North Eastern Pennsylvania USA. What time of year do you think I should dig them out of the ground and place them in training pots?

  15. Dave L

    Our native beech in the US is Fagus grandifolia. It's a more delicate tree, with very smooth silvery bark, and maybe not quite as tough when collected for bonsai, thou they are used, and I've seen some nice examples. European beech is also available, along with Japanese beech, of course, from nurseries. It's hard to believe I've been following your channel for over four years – I remember your acquisition of these.

  17. Matt Brennan

    I definitely remember that original video. I’m amazed at how well they’re developing. I’m so envious that you have the facilities to perform this type of work in winter. Thanks, keep growing

  19. Shin Taro

    Another fantastic educational video Peter. Thank you and Merry Christmas to you and your team.

  20. Bob Patterson

    Peter thank you for an informative video and that you don’t have to spend a lot of money, and some free saplings to boot. 👍

  21. Joe Garland

    That was hard work but you like this part of working with the roots it would appear. Thank you Peter for your time and enthusiasm.

  24. Greenhawk

    Thankyou , lovely again Master Chan. And relaxation is never boring, plus always verry nice and interesting these long videos, a case off less is NOT more 😉🙏 Greets from Belgium

    Seeing the progress with these Bin Birch gives me more hope for the sticks in pots I have accumulated over the past year.

    A few more years and hopefully they'll be strong like this and ready for Bonsay training.

    Thanks for the update and further inspiration growing little trees.

    I keep looking at your website and really want to get some trees that are further along the journey though I have learned a lot and have gathered some interesting seedlings and trees at different ages.

    I may have also gone a little crazy twisting a young oak like a heater skelter my first wiring attempts look quite tasteful.

    Looking forward to further updates and videos. A master and gentleman at work.

    So good to see these Beech trees again. And to think these would have been binned.
    As my old granddad always used to say: "No one ever got rich from throwing things away"

  31. Kyle Rodamer

    Peter, I have been following very loyally for about a year now. I often see you use and talk about sphagnum moss. However, in my neck of the woods, none of the local nurseries supply this or know anything about it. Can you please make a video diving deeper into what makes a good moss, and/or good advice towards online suppliers? This would help myself and my trees out a great deal. Thank you

  32. Russ Pawis

    Another amazing video. One thing I would like to see is the maintenance of the tools, sharpening, oiling and whatnot.

  36. rsa420

    Glad to see they made it so happy they did not end up at the dump. Always great to see these follow ups

    🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 thanks Peter

    I checked the trees out on my visits to Herons this year, its still hard to believe people would throw away lovely trees , I got a pom pom tree reduced from £100 to £20 as B&Q did not water it , i have left it for 8 months in its pot, not every pom pom has come back into full vigour , but it starting to look good, I intend to leave it for another 6 months or so .

  39. K-R-W

    Good to see you in your festive colours Mr. Chan. Have a merry Christmas and happy new year.

  40. Graham Davidson

    Thank you Peter for sharing your expertise. It really lifts my spirits to watch your regular videos, especially when its so unpleasant outside. Happy Christmas and best wishes for the New Year for health, wealth and happiness.

  41. Mariusz Mazur

    Great video as always. To be honest I wouldn't mind to watch other 28 trees. Never enough to get more and more usable knowledge from Peter.

  43. Jakica Tancabelic

    This is qualifying as one of my favorite videos. Thank you for the teaching and sharing your vision, but letting others have their vision, like the bit on nibari.
    Happy Christmas and the best in the coming New Year!

  44. CASSOP'S NOX DIGGER

    Well done Peter…i was thinking all along that you could put a rock in there as this is quite common over here in the outdoors….i was so relieved when you did that, i think that root and a rock would "ADD to the balance of the tree" and also the soil fill is important too…i wish you and yours all the very best for the xmas season….take care regards Gordon.

  45. Sebastian Alvarez

    It always seems like the general consensus is to do repotting in the spring. At the start of your video you said it was December 4. Are you reporting to early or do you feel comfortable reporting deciduous trees in dormancy?

  46. kulesa

    beautiful. i was just watching the " Large Christmas Tree Bonsai" video from last year. is it possible you give us an update on this tree, please? thank you and happy holidays to all of you at Herons Bonsai.

  48. Roger Strickland

    Master Peter. Thank you, Thank you Thank Thank you!!!!! So much to say. Please let me thank you so very much for sharing your insight and amazing knowledge. I must thank you one more time.

    What a great material! I often see ancient beech hedges during walks and shudder with the thoughts of people just replacing them with some modern grey concrete fence or raised box.
