  • Season 7 Episode 24 - Yamadori Again, Deciduous Winter Study, After Major Work care
    Jun 22 2025

    Contact Scott from Bonsai Matsu

    Deciduous bonsai look their best in their winter silhouette, there is no where to hide! Use this opportunity to identify areas for improvement before the foliage returns in the near future. And if you have over worked a bonsai, what should you do? How do you adjust your care to help the tree heal and move on from the shock of what you have done. Yamadori is always a hot topic and I have a little delve into responsible sourcing and how consumers and bonsai lovers need to make the right decisions. There are people doing it the right way and they should be supported.

  • Season 7 Episode 23 - Bonsai Scars from the Past, Winter Protection Strategies
    Jun 15 2025

    Contact Scott from Bonsai Matsu

    We all have scars from our past, it makes us human and our bonsai history is scattered with ‘things I wouldn’t do again’. You can learn from these scars but don’t let them hold you back from achieving something pretty fantastic. Winter is upon us and the thoughts about winter protection for your sensitive species need to become a priority before something happens to your bonsai. I chat about classifying your bonsai and also working within the constraints of your bonsai area to develop the best possible care strategy. There are lots of options for you to offer winter protection to your delicate bonsai.

  • Season 7 Episode 22 - Bonsai Priorities, Japanese White Pines, Bonsai Don'ts!
    Jun 8 2025

    Contact Scott from Bonsai Matsu

    We are all busy! But your bonsai need you. How and where do you allocate your time for them? You need to look at what is most important right now and prioritise that task, whether it's weeding or pruning, repotting or fertilising. By using your limited time wisely you and your bonsai will feel great. Japanese White Pines are a little misunderstood and I find they are unique in our care approach, as well as simple once you know the formula. I'll break it down so it's as simple as possible. And not to be negative I have some Bonsai Don'ts to discuss that I promise are positive.
