    I have sowed lots of crab apple seed both red and yellow and some acorns. Hopefully some if not most will germinate. I had great success last year with crab apples. I look forward to your follow up video to see what your success rate is. A great video.

    I have had great success this year growing from seed. I have grown English oak as well as pin oaks, pride of Bolivia, Ash and Mulberry(mulberry so easy to grow they like weeds)

    Wonderful video Peter! I personally enjoy the propagation aspect of bonsai as much as I enjoy the art process! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise!

    I have sown various maple seeds gifted to me by @bonsaicornwall
    Plus I have an acorn that has sprouted! Looking forward to the spring

    I guess Peter is right in saying some people may find sowing seeds for Bonsai too time consuming but I like growing from seed as I can see the growing process over the first 3 years or so, I maybe be getting on for 70 years of age and may not live long enough to see them grow to maturity as Bonsai but I can pass them on to friends or family. I can say I have had a lot of success of sowing seeds like crab apples, Japanese {Deshojo} Maples from Herons. I get a lot of pleasure when I see the seeds germinate that I have sowed.

    Thank you… 🙏 😔 🙏

    Very informative video. It is interesting which plants will grow from their seeds. You never know until you plant one.

    🌮🙏🖖🙏😔🙏🙏🙏🎄

    Hahaha! Mr Chan, you got so excited about the smell of the Quince that it looked as though you were about to turn to the camera and let us try and get a smell of it! And to be honest I naturally leand in to catch a wiff of it! Haha, good times my friend.

    Can I start to seed now? It’s quite cold here in northern Ohio. Do I put them outside and cover with a plastic and wait until spring

    I had the opportunity to get China Berry seeds, could not decide from the online research if they were worth growing, or not.

    Every wisteria I have grown from the pods grew vigorously… none ever bloomed after 10 yrs…😭😭☹️… but they grew… sigh ( Maryland near DC )

    Great video as always Peter. 👍

    For beginners I would however caution that although growing bonsai from seed is a great and worthwhile activity – it is not a great way of being introduced to bonsai because of the long time frames involved. There is a Greek proverb that says “a society grows great when old men plant seeds for trees under whose shade they know they will never sit.” It could be 5-10 years before your tree is sufficiently mature to begin wiring and styling for bonsai, dependent on species.

    I would recommend you do this alongside having more mature trees to work on while your seeds grow. Get yourself a 5 year head start and buy a nursery plant to style, or an inexpensive Chinese elm if you are a beginner, and learn to look after this and acquire other trees while you wait for your seeds to germinate and grow. 👍

    I need to change my pine soil. My plants die every time I change the soil. Please tell me why.
