Really enjoy the videos and I always learn something. I will have to try it myself Thanks Steve Crawford srcsr50@gmail.com

Your not looking at the camera is not a problem for this viewer. Just watching you while you work your "magic" and listening to your commentary is just fine by me. My first exposure to Bonsai trees occurred more than forty years ago (I am in the 71st year of my life) at the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens in New York City. The Gardens have a sizable area modeled after a Japanese garden where one can leisurely wander about and be surrounded by a never ending panorama of beauty. Walking through it left me with an indelible fascination with the Japanese aesthetic. An impressive collection of highly valued Bonsai trees is one of the Garden's major attractions and can be viewed in the Garden's green house. I recently started feeling a resurgence of interest in Bonsai after seeing a workshop on wiring and trimming a Bonsai through a glass storefront. It was being conducted in a coffee shop of all places. Rather than attending such a dubious workshop, I have decided to follow your presentations over the internet and try my hand at this beautiful art. Thank you for your willingness to share your valuable knowledge, experience and skills.

We don't mind long videos, we actually love them master Peter.

I learnt so many things from ur video

Me.... “ I’ve got my tree out of the pot “ Peter.... “ ok , let’s go on to number 6 “ 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

We love the long videos, keep making them

It’s lovely to see such a genuine and positive community in the comments section of these videos.

I appreciate all of the "behind the scenes" aspects of your videos. It gives one a fuller context for what is possible in bonsai than what can be offered by books.

Short videos are boring. Long videos are informative, entertaining and inspirational. Keep it up,

Not only do I like your long videos I go back and watch them over and over again in case I missed something and every time I do find things that I had forgotten about, thanks for posting so much. love and peace from Windham New York

spiral of knowledge. revisiting is a great way to learn.

Greetings from Estonia. We really like what you do. we watch every video with great interest

I love that there is no waste. I’m always amazed at how you think about the trees and their natural motion that contributes to a bonsai look. I’m gonna have to visit you…I’m coming from California 🙏🏽🙋🏻‍♀️👍🏽

You always identify your trees. Helpful to me if you could show a close-up the leaves when you identify each tree. Thank you keep up the good work.

I bought a 1 gallon maple today and didn’t realize the nebari could be so far under the soil! Thanks for showing me with this video, the trunk looks so much better now that I dug the nebari out!

Your videos are wonderful and never too long. You are an exceptional teacher and without your training I would be in the dark on all of this. Excellent job….thank you.

I'm 30 seconds into this video. Can I just say. That shirt is on point!

I never knew that you could pot the roots and grow a new tree. Peter, you are the best!

I love these long videos were you take a bunch of trees and show us what you're doing in explaining what you're doing with each one of them. If the greatest learning tool ever. I know when I start my 1st banzai from nursery stock I have a's large amount of knowledge planted in my brain by watching you.

When I first started watching your videos I thought , "why are they so long"? Now I can't get enough of them!

I’ve learned that I’m much too careful with my trees... ;)

Don't mind your longer videos. Thoroughly enjoy watching you create.

You are a wonder! All of those trees are beautiful! Trees are my absolute favorite plant. I have pictures of them everywhere in our house and am always looking for more. You have inspired me and my daughter to start bonsai trees. When we start watching your videos we can't stop and end up watching late into the night. Thank you so much for sharing your love and knowledge, We'll be watching!

Thank you so much for the time and effort you put into these videos. Straight to the point, and no hard and fast rules. Thank you Mr. Chan for your positive, energetic, and realness on life. #HeronsBonsai

I'am from Berlin Germany i understand not so good Englisch, but i love you Peter! You are my Hero Bonsai!!!!

Greetings from Germany. Long videos are great, keep going on it.

Nothing you do is boring. I appreciate you sharing all your expertise.

Don’t mind the long videos. You are a master, I appreciate all the knowledge you share with us, thank you sir 🙏🏻

Now, I am hooked, I must do this!

Peter Chan: nice shirts, nicer bonsai

Love the long videos. I agree that if you love life any thing you do is/should be enjoyable. Your enthusiasm is contagious. Would love to see a video of a day with Peter Chan.

Thanks for another great video, I've learned so much watching you. There's really no limit to how long of a video I'd watch from you. The longer the better!

I’ve been interested in bonsais for about a year it’s fascinating how you say I’ve had this for 32 years it just amazes me amazing Thank you for all the secrets for free I like free ^.^ your awesome heron

I put my 1 year old to sleep to your videos, please keep em long and informative

Longer the better I could watch you all day xx

Because of your videos I became brave and started to grow my own bonsai trees at home :) Thank you!

The 8th tree is my favorite,.thx for sharing Peter. Can't wait for the next one..cheers

I agree with you Slam Boy. When you learn this art even a blade of grass will surprise you!

Love your trees...your old maple trees here in your video look much like the ones surrounding my area...The trees here are at least 100+ years old...the center of these old trees often rot out and become hollow....octopus looking......but this big tree has much determination it stills grows on....occationally sacrificing a large limb. The seeds start easily but grow so fast putting roots down fast. It's like mastering a giant... Yours are beautiful. Thank you for sharing.

You are very, very soothing. I love listening to you talk.

"You never know what you find below the surface."

Thank you for every thing you do! You’re a legend!

Thanks for another great video, I've learned so much from you. I could watch all day -- the longer the better!

You patience and enthusiasm is a wonder! Thank you and Happy 2020!

Sir, it is very relaxing watching you working.

Thank you for all the great videos! I enjoy watching regardless of the length. Your videos have been invaluable to my new found bonsai hobby. You are the man!

Your a wonderful teacher. Thank you!!

Master Chan shows how to value Nature's materials. Yes, we love the long videos!

I’m watching this again. So amazed at your knowledge.

Yes, love the long videos. Keep up the inspiring work please!

I personaly want to see this types of video from you. It's very helpful for beginners, those who are interested to create a bonsai. So it's my request please do this type of video more and more.

Germany is calling! Thanks, Peter, wonderful videos with amazing Bonsai!

A great video with a wealth of knowledge. I love the longer videos. Thanks as always Peter!

Very interesting video, thank you. Here’s another favorable vote for the longer videos. I thoroughly enjoy watching you create your trees.

Love this video I learn so much from each tree Thank you for your time and for letting us all in

You make me excited to start Bonsai! I can hardly wait for Spring!

Thank you Mr Chan, I watch all of you video's and have some of you books and still find something new each time i watch or reread your books .I have many field maples one of which is a shohin which is around 25 years old growing over a rock which i did 20+ years ago after reading one of your books ,you have always been an inspiration.once again ,Thank you

Thank you for your kind comments - Books did meet a need but I would never consider writing a bonsai book again because it is not the same doing and explaining things via the digital media.

I think the longer videos are more beneficial to learn from because of your providing different examples in which we see how to you design and problem solve. It’s a privilege to watch a master work magic 🪄

I love the longer videos!!!

Thank you peter so interesting, just started keeping bonsai. Love watching your videos as you explain everything 😊❤️

Your wealth of knowledge is just mind blowing Peter, thank you for sharing all your knowledge with us

Long videos are great. The preparation is very important. Nice that you give lots of examples! Enjoy every one immensely!

The 2 trunk solution is in the eye of the beholder and it looks natural to me.

I really enjoy your videos. You go after the trees roots like a person searching for gold and rightly so.

I love watching you work And retaining you’re Knowledge on Bonsai you’re so inspiring!-you are my Teacher ,my Mentor for this Beautiful yet addicting art that I’ve been doing for 6-7 yrs you’ve change my life in the best and most Honorable way🌱

Peter, you’re the ultimate KZread Shìfū on bonsai. Who would want to watch those other people?

I've had a mulberry growing in a black plastic pot just like those maples for at least 5 years now. When I went to take it up off the ground, it had 2 huge roots growing down through the holes in the bottom of the pot and it was really anchored to the ground. I had to work at cutting those two large roots in order to get the pot and tree off the ground and up onto my back deck to work on it. It is really looking nice. I am REALLY enjoying your videos!

Thanks you sir and greetings from South of South Africa ! I love the long videos so please keep it up!

Please do a long video on Azaleas 🙏😊

Oh, I love that tree. So beautiful.

I love your long videos, relaxing and informative!

Love all the videos! So informative and yet relaxing to watch

I am very new to bonsai. I always used to see amazing bonsai and think I could never do that. But you make everything seem so achievable! Love the channel and all the information you give. I now have two bonsai I've done myself and I'm definitely addicted! 😊👍

Love the video. Instructional is great but to just watch you work is very beneficial to see. Thank you Peter for taking the time to teach the world your craft.

Peter you are an inspiration... Thank you for sharing your knowledge.. and I love your long videos 😍

These vids are amazing. I have a 4 foot pine in my yard that has a beautiful twist and I chopped and chopped and it is so Pretty! Im inspired by these vids. I love his discussion during the processes

Root cuttings. Never heard of that, how wonderful. I also have 7 air layerings on the go. You share some really interesting techniques.

Thank you for sharing your decades of knowledge with us 🙏🌱

I get them as seedlings in my garden. There are many around in my area. Got a couple growing in pots as a patio tree. You have given me some ideas though. I have the same with ash trees and especially birch trees. They show up as seedling in my garden and I put them in a pot. I love this channel!

Was inspired to look into the root cutting issue... done basic genetics, done some horticultural classes, understand very basic chemistry, understand basic propagation techniques... made some bullet point questions for myself...

I love these educational videos, it is so nice to follow your thinking process, the why and the how, excellent 👍🏼

It is just so incredibly interesting to watch you work. Along with your encyclopedic knowledge that you reliably sprinkle in with your commentary, your channel is very educational and gratifying. Thank you!

Cannot believe these plants survive this treatment. Just amazing!

Warts and All! LMAO don't know why that just struck me as funny but now I want to follow in your footsteps. Loving It!

Thank you for sharing your wonderful techniques with us. Watching your videos has given me courage to chop off branches with more confidence.

Another excellent video and vital information was provided. Please do not stop.

Omg I would never have thought you could be that brutal with the roots .... not that I've ever tried Bonsai but as very inspired.

very natural and really inspiring...thank you very much.... you're a genuine master.
