  P.S. I love the tangents. That is one of my favorite parts of bonsai tutorials like this. Give me history, lore, and theory. I want it all, not just the bare "how to". I do not practice bonsai to be succinct or quick. I do it to slow down and enjoy. So bring on the tangents.

  It’s always great to hear people with a lot of experience chat even if you already know some of the material. There was more than a few helpful hints and historical facts!

  Just beginning my journey, but have gathered enough trees to make my wife nervous over just a few months!  I would buy more, but I can’t hide trees in the garage like the nice tools I spent too much money on!  Hard to explain away packages arriving with Japanese writing on them.  Your videos are ALWAYS full of valuable information.  Thanks so much!  P.S. I have lived in Bremerton, WA for 15 years.  I drive by Elandan’s Gardens and always think I should go inside to see, but always too “busy.”  Waiting now for a special day to tour and treat myself!  You were the one to have to show me that place also.  Most of the people around here don’t know much about that garden though they all drive by many times a year.  Not obvious that Dan really wants a lot of people to come in there….from your videos, I can see that may be part of his personality….he is happy if your are enthusiastic enough to stop and look, but he is too busy with his Bonsai to care if you are too dumb to notice his amazing garden?  I have a strict selfish policy to make sure I never “volunteer”, but I may check to see if Dan has a volunteer group to help work in his garden….can’t believe I am putting that down in writing!

  I'm years late. Just pulled myself out of a bad depression and am starting to take interest in my old hobbies. Bonzia being one of the ones them. Good learning from a master

  From someone who isn’t experienced that was a revelation. Thanks.
