Would you please publish a quick update of this root over rock project ? I think after 2 years, this must have evolved quite interestingly.
Great instructional video. Thanks Jerome. As much as I enjoy watching you work on your more established trees it’s really helpful to view videos like this. Thanks

Hey Matt, thank you! Im glad you enjoyed this video.
"Looks a little more GNARLY.." KILLED ME JEROME XD GOOD WORK!
Love this. Never tried root over rock, but come spring here in the UK it is definite project for me to attempt if I can find the right rock.
Thanks for another great instructional video. Love the "blown-over" position for its dramatic effect. As a bonsai "newbie" . You give me courage to grow my abilities.

i like that yall didnt edit out the thinking phase. thats an important step to making sure you are confident in what you want. also i agree its better to have it look like it got knocked down in a storm.
Good job!

I'd love to see more videos on other types of trees using this technique. Could it be used on a Cyprus Hinoki? I have a small one, about a year old; how many years should I wait to apply this technique if I could do so?
Excellent BONSAI ART
Really awesome video. Your explanation is superb.

Great instructional video mate. Here in Australia we can get away with doing it in any season, depending where you live. I have a small forest of Ficus Figs that I inadvertently obtained by sticking in branches of the Ficus Fig in a pot whilst pruning. I may try this on them.
Great video
Now i know how to make bonsai on the rock, thank you so much sir
Glad i found this video
Great!👏👏👏
Great.👍
Thks for sharing Dear Friend!
That's so true, here in Florida it's hit or miss with good rocks. If you find them it's best to snag them, I have a rock yard walking distance from me thankfully. I'd like to try ROR with some of my desert trees (bursera, Boswellia, commiphora).

Wow super
I do the same with bonsai where i have to picture a "story" in my mind of how it would have grown like that in full scale in the wild. it's more artistic than following strict bonsai style techniques

Hi. Love your channel. I have made a root over rock and for last two years the roots have not attached themselves with the rock. They just keep growing around the rock. Can you advise what's wrong? Thanks
Great... Very helpful...

I usually plant the tree and the rock into a deep container and expose the root gradually. So I am curiously looking for updates on this one. Thanks!

Hey Basti, I like to do the same especially on trees that don't attach to the rock easy like a buttonwood for instance!

I've never Bonsai'ed before. (is that a word?) But, I certainly learned by watching the process. GREAT explanation along the way and loved how you considered the story line of a possible storm blowing the tree against the rock! It was a dark stormy night...... BRAVO!!

Beautiful arrangement of the tree on the rock and the pot. Well balanced picture. Great! Will you at some stage think of shortening the tree by removing the top part?
@WeareTheBonsaiSupply
4 жыл бұрын
Hey, thank you for your kind words! Yes I will shorten the tree once the roots have attached to the rock! For now I will let the tree grow pretty freely
I find use saran wrap works great to not only hold the tree to the rock, but also to hold the moisture in the soil.

Jaclyn Soileau that’s a good method, you can also burry the rock.

I bought a bonsai that apparently is ready to be planted on a rock. It’s got some type of cloth on it right now. I hope it works. Much appreciated

That sounds like burlap which can be used to do root over rock. Make sure you don't remove it too early.

Nice technique, thank for sharing your video. From @Pantomanok tv.
just wondering how the tree ends up after romoval of the moss? does it take a year or more before it can grow without the moss? looks great btw
@WeareTheBonsaiSupply

Hi, it depends on specie and climate but the moss was removed about a year after and it was growing well on its own.
Chia sẻ rất bổ ích .bạn cho hỏi chất trồng gồm những gì không
I went to the keys in Florida and I went to a beach when it was low tide and I saw and took many nice and big rocks for bonsais. Ima have to wash them tho cuz they probably salty
Aku Suka Brow...👍
6:46 what would you recommend for evergreen trees?
Likes Air Supply Nice name channel Liked already 😁👌
I notice a couple cables going inside the trees on the background, are those a pair of “sensors”and auto watering mechanism ?
Rule of thumb new shoots grow you can place it in the 🌞👍
Looking great, can we expect an update on how it’s taken to the rock?

Hey Warren, this composition was sold shortly after the video was released.
Thanks for the video!! Do you think it’s possible to make such an arrangement with a rock and bury it under the soil in a deep pot so that it grows over it? I live somewhere very hot and dry, no moss grows here and my bonsai is a buttonwood.
Are those Spot Spitters in the background? Do Spot-Spitters work with drip-manifolds? (Orbit, Rain Bird, etc.) Or do you need full pressure for a Spot Spitters?

Hey, yes those are Spot Spitters! You can run them right off the Rain Bird etc. timers. check out this video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/mZxhu6qqZJTNldo.html
