Pruning & Refining Chinese Juniper Bonsai



In this video I take a Chinese Juniper Itiogawa that has grown into a bit of a blob and prune it, creating pads.

  1. Peter, I wonder since this is both your job and a hobby, is there anything that you don't like in bonsai or in your job in general?

  2. Speechless with the amount of foliage flying out but the result is truly beautiful. Great tips in this video. Thanks Peter 🌳

  3. Beautiful tree but not so well maintained. A well known problem: people buy beautiful trees but at the end, they do not know how to maintain the design/shape of the tree. It is not always easy, that's for sure and this tree looks very healthy indeed. Problem now might be, that there is quite a chance that the tree will respond with juvenile growth, since a lot of foliage had to be removed. On the other hand, patience does it at the end and Junipers are very strong trees. It's an Itoigawa, isn't it? Anyway: 425 K abo's, that's another milestone in my opinion! Again: congrats to you and your team, mr Chan! Good luck and keep up the good work!

  4. Nice and efficient work. I thought that the bottom of the pad is supposed to be flat and the top is rounded. Steve.

  5. I am getting a T shirt – "If you can't see the trunk, it's just a bush!"

  6. It is Very cold in Sweden too,so I can’t do anything with my trees yet ,they are outside,I don’t have a greenhouse😢

  7. What a differens ! Why does people buy bonsai,and don’t prune them? Good job Peter👏👏👏👏🌳🌺

  8. Please show us the video where you go over the tree again and clean up the bottom of the pads, making them more refined.
