  "The old folks would cringe" This gentleman is a 25 year old at heart. Love this guy.

  Ahhh, the skilful use of the traditional Japanese reciprocating saw.

  Everytime I&apos;ve seen someone transplant: &nbsp;&quot;Make sure you&apos;re careful not to damage the roots.&quot;<br><br>Bonsai Heirloom: &nbsp;&quot;So I grabbed my reciprocal saw...&quot;

  I love the casual &quot;why not&quot; approach as opposed to the more clinical approach I see a lot of other people take. It feels more confident.

  These people deserve to live for millennia so they can Finnish their art

  I&apos;m just beginning a tree myself. My very first one. Sometimes I reflect on my age, nearly 72, and wonder how long I&apos;ll be around to see results. But then I realize that this art is not about me. If I manage to succeed in the early stages, my tree could be in another&apos;s care, as is your sublime Juniper. Your work is truly incredible, and I&apos;m grateful for the opportunity to learn from you here!

  Thank you Mr. Milton. &nbsp;That tree is beautiful. &nbsp;Thanks also for your friendly, &nbsp;relaxed encouragement of &nbsp;all of us learning bonsai enthusiasts.

  I love the bonsai tree. My mother had 2 for over 40 years, one old and one she created herself out of 5 oak seedlings on a hill orientation. Both lived in the garden near her bedroom window. &nbsp;Within a month of her passing away both trees began to falter and 6 months later had died completely. I took the to a specialist who said they were both very healthy but were mourning my mother. &nbsp; So so sad. I have enjoyed your video and will certainly consider getting one myself

  i love the fact that for someone who grows Bonzai which requires immense patience, he says &quot;i don&apos;t like to spend time combing the roots, so i&apos;m just going to take this saw here...&quot;

  This is my first time watching a video on Bonsai trees, and I think you just sparked an interest in me.😊
