im gunno go with its the tree thats MAGICAL
ooooooo
pretty nice
my ones sorta similar
its a false cypress
i have one question..do you need to have special clippers to trim the tree or can u just use small scissors like cosmetic scissors??
Its a good idea to use the clippers that are designed for it. Small scissors may not be able to make a clean cut unless you’re doing some very minor work to the tree. A rough cut can damage the tree. That being said, you can probably go down to the hardware store and find some little clippers that will get the job done without spending too much money.
hes like the american MIYAGI from the karate kid lol
wow thats so cool.. I want a lemon tree bonsai!!
how do you grow the moss under the tree?
I would recommend going to a hardware store to get some small clippers. Most of the special bonsai clippers are basically the exact same thing but tend to be much, much more expensive.
Most actually plant the moss, it doesn’t just happen by chance.
Thank you for this video
If i give my tree a hair cut will leaves grow near the middle of the tree more? Im conerned that my tree has a lack of leaves at the moment
cutting new growth near the top of the tree will promote lateral growth. What happens is a particular hormone for lateral growth gets released when you cut along the top of the stem.
Anyone have advice on transplanting Moss??? 2 days ago I removed all the pebbles from the top and replaced it with a nice “carpet” of moss in my 6×8 in. pot containing a Canadien Hemlock (its very small). Any tips would be great!!!!!!
would small haircutting scissors work?
yes the should but if you hav a bonsai with thorns on like me then becareful
i meaN THEY

Hi mine keeps looseing its leaves then growing them back… it sounds stupid cause ye they are meant to do that but mine is doing it all the time every month what should I do, its summer and it has no leaves in winter it had them and its started to grow a few again
i keep reading that for cypress you have to pinch it…. i dont know what this means!!! if anyone knows how to do this please let me know! anybody!!
Use ur thumb and index, or middle finger and use ur nail to pinch of the foliage. Or branch, depending on what ur doing
you get moss from rocks in the woods and stuff
fuck the add b4 the vid its bull shit
Has anyone bonsai’d grass to use in place of moss? I hear that it can be done and looks better than moss.
