No matter what the weather Herons Bonsai is heaven on earth. Thank you Peter.

I love how excited Peter gets with successful air layerings! :)

Fabulous video, always like how Mr Chan give credit to his staff for their hard work too.

Honestly I love seeing the trees and the gardening, but the best part about all of this is how excited Peter is 😄

Peter: “I won’t bore you.” All of us: 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Mr Peter chan you could never bore us I think you agree L👍👍👍

I love when people are enthusiastic about something that most people wouldn't give a second look.

Peter, you are truly the world champion of air-layering ! I have not seen anyone else in bonsai or agriculture ever do so many air-layerings and that too across multiple species ! I have added this video also to my playlist "Air layering = Instant trees"

i love to see the root system for a while that the reason i always took a many pics and videos for watch them later more and more ... also i did it too many successful air layers this year on my bougaivillea and hibiscus family and brugmansia collection with your nice and easy method .... already i have many mature plants more than 50 that i made it this year .. no room for walking in my garden ... i wanna say thank you again Mr.peter chan .... thank you for every things that you teach us for free ... your KZread channel is like a great university with tons of deep knowledge that every body can get it

I just want to say thank you Mr. Chan for helping me find a new hobby. I've watched more hours of these than I care to admit and I'm really looking to getting started even though its late in the season :)

What a great lesson on patience at the end there. Good one Peter!

I like seeing you so happy Peter. Airlaying maples, what's not to be happy about. Great success rate.

After all bonsai is all about patience..thats the wisdom coming from the master..always wonderful thoughts to ponder. cheers!

Give Josh a raise :-) Fantastic success rate. Thanks, keep growing

Mr Peter chan sir you truly are the masters And you so humble too Thanks you all at Herron bonsai

Josh, you make Peter and plants importantly, very happy.🙃

Patience. I'm still waiting on my air-layerings. Your last illustration gave me hope. I will wait. Thank you.

you've got me hooked on air layering. got 50+ fiscus carica (edible fig) done successfully including several very large trunk 6' trees. most of them exploded and were ready in only 2 weeks. also got 3 7' trident maples along with around 20 large 3' specimens of mountain maples. Whew, so we are feeling the same buoyancy right now. Like teacher. Like student. Thank you so much for your lessons Peter.

Great video Peter. These type are my favourite to watch. Had some success in air layering my maples this year after watching your previous videos on air layering. Keep up the good work with the videos and sharing your wisdom.

I too successfully air layered my first trident maple 2 weeks back here in india after watching all your videos

I love watching you happy and excited, Peter :) Thanks for sharing!

Nice sharing video...👏👏👏

Hi Peter, thank to you I have already successfully air layering large branch from a trident maple thank you for all the videos

Amazinly informative! ... as always. Thank you so much for this wonderfully learning packed video.

Excellent video Peter....Thank you!!!

That was very exciting to see all those air layering take So crazy to see all of the roots grown from moss. Thank you for showing us this video. And you are never boring. ☺☺☺☺💓💓💓💓

Thank you for sharing all these knowledge. I love your channel.

Thanks Peter!! I’ve just harvested my first air layerings after watching your videos. Thank you so much for your guidance!! Fingers crossed they work

Mr. Chen your enthusiasm is contagious and it is always a pleasure to see your videos, I have propagated my trident maple that you gave me advice repotting over video call and I think I have around 50 new plants (the size of a match) and I can say the the inspiration you have gifted me over this 17 months of pandemic is priceless Giuliano from Verona

Peter once again you have succeeded, you are truly an amazing person 🇬🇧😊❤️

Spring here in NZ,, love this time of year as my Maples burst into leaf.

Thank you for dispelling the misteries of air layering. 🎉

Wonderful video sir so much insight a real expert.thank you a fan from USA.

Always a pleasure. Thank you for sharing all your tricks and wisedom. Made airlaying this year with your guide and technic and it was succesful. 😁👍🏼

Top stuff - thank you and regards from South Africa

Really enjoyed watching, and learning new things!

The great master peter. I love it.

Always such great videos

This is a wonderful video which you should watch all the way through, but I will say that you'll get an amazing level of wisdom from the last 2-3 minutes (provided you watch everything up to that point), more than a hundred other videos might provide. Thank you, Peter and Josh.

Great video on air layering Peter... i didnt realise you could re use spagnum moss again on another tree.. awesome!

Just started watching, Peter is a wonderful teacher and I find it very interesting.

I love the excitement in this video! Thank you for sharing!

Thank-you, Peter, for another very interesting, informative video! Please, keep them coming!

Nice root systems and marvelous trunks on the air layering tree branches.

like a kid in a candy store, your joy is palpable. thanks as always, for sharing these skills with us. I am harvesting 4 in the wild and purchased 2 small firs to form 6 this fall in hypertufa pots Ive made, trying air layering next spring and summer ... looking forward to this joy when harvesting the air layered trunks.

Congratulations Josh and Peter! It's always exciting to see the good fruits of our Lord and the work of our labor!

You are the best Peter, love your air laying videos

very good to see how I can do this, thanks greetz from Belguim 💚

I love how Peter is wearing one green boot and one black boot!

When he saved the top moss it really resonated with me. I'm my opinion free reused moss works better with sentimental value. 😆

Thank you so much for the video! I would love to see the next step, i. e. how to deal with the roots that now grow in the deep flower-pots to make them bonsai-worthy

Whoaa...what a fun day 😘Sphagnum Moss equals to fast growing healthy roots indeed. Well done Peter 👍, and thx for sharing, until next one, cheers. 🙏

This made my day(once more), really enjoyable!

PETER and CREW,, good morning! thank you for the tips i love air--layering because you always get a instant tree and not have that long wait to get the same size tree

Great video Peter. I love to see these type of videos. Keep up the good work with the videos and sharing your wisdom and tips.

Infectiously enthusiastic :)

Love seeing the progress 🤩

Dear Mr. Chan and Dear Staff, could you maybe show an update on the airlayering on that last huge maple? It was first shown in late 2020 in the maple series, I believe it was part IV, and I am still so curious to see if it was a success and how the bonsai turned out. Wishing you all the best! Dominique

I love watching your videos Peter. I could listen to you all day long. You are very inspiring and I have learned a lot from you. We are planning to visit in the summer🥰

Wonderful propagation!

Thanks for the video Peter. I have a small (35/40 cm) Antarctic Beech Bonsai. There seems to be very little information on these as bonsai, so it would be much appreciated if you could show the follow up work on these when appropriate. Thanks again.

Nice air-layering harvest. Will love to see the twin trunk tree at the end of your video coming spring to see the roots it will produce. I wonder if adding some more moss will help. Thanks for sharing this video.

Well done Josh.

When your videos pop up, i always look for it

You make it look easy. Thanks for sharing and giving some great ideas and insight into bonsai. Awesome Peter 👍TrickyTrev 🇦🇺👍🐝🍯🌲

Ordinary soil and spaghnum is a strange mix but it's also interesting at the same time haha, thank you for sharing this method Peter!

@Robert_McGarry_Poems

The moss gives the roots a place to make fine feeder roots. There is a lot of surface area in the moss. The hairy section of the roots is where water and nutrients are absorbed, at least 80%. The feeder roots are small and hair like. They do not grow with as much force as seeker roots, the longest medium thick roots, which can be cut off. You can regenerate a tree quickly by letting it get fine feeder roots, and then understanding how to feed the tree what it needs. After it gets healthy, it needs to be anchored better, hence the slightly compacted soil. That space isn't for feeding, the space in the moss with the fine roots, will still do that just fine.

@@Robert_McGarry_Poems Well, that's a great theory but I think that in wet climates such mix would hold too much moisture and in conseqence kill roots. I personally mix pumice and spaghnum to make sure that roots are doing fine. (edit: Peter used something much better than just ordinary soil :D)

Great video

Your videos always make my day Peter. Bless you !

I have a Trident Maple, that I am still trying to figure out what to do with, BUT....I had chopped the top of one of the trunks, ( it has three trunks, that separate after about 3 inches of a single trunk ) The chopped top was about 1/2" in diameter, with many small branches that was a sort of an apex on that particular trunk, and I used some hormone, cut almost all the small branches back, and planted it in a small seedling pot with some regular compost just to see if it would strike, and it has filled the small pot with roots, and has dozens and dozens of leaves. I have already moved it to a slightly larger, deeper pot, and its growing at a feverish pace. I would never had thought that Tridents were difficult. Perhaps air layering is more difficult, but my cuttings seem to be much more easy to get started. This is in fact, one of three I've gotten to shoot leaves just from small branch cuttings...That little Trident top that is absolutely gorgeous with all its little leaves is indeed, very exciting for me...

Peter, merhaba. Türkiyeden yazıyorum. Çok başarılı sunum yapıyorsun, tebrikler.

The tray of water certainly seems to work. Will have to try this next year.

Thank you very much

With the last tree, I'd probably put more moss at the bottom of the moss ball to allow the emerging roots to grow into some more substrate.

I don't think it matters that much as the moss near the trunk still provides the benefits of the moss and the roots in most cases should grow in a flat circle anyway to give a nice nebari. Only cascading or roots over rock bonsai benefit more from roots growing downwards.

Mr Chan, would it be alright for me to chop a Norway Maple air layering from the tree, in the middle of winter? I know it's not ideal, but I have to move house soon. You're a great inspiration to me, thank you!

@peterchan3100

I wouldn't normally do that but if you have no choice - then do it.

Next time I try growing a trident I guess I'll be looking for cuttings or layerings, had absolutely terrible luck growing them from seed.

Great! Is there a video showing the start of the process? THANK YOU!

can anyone explain why root rot isn't a problem with this method?

Ik this is months ago, but I have been watching so many of your videos since you're so far the only youtuber that has so much knowledge about bonsai. 😊 can you demonstrate a small bonsai with ivy?? English ivy or something of the sort??

I enjoyed the instant noodle reference hahaha
