All Bonsai Nurseries in the USA should look like this.

When you get to the part about pots and stands, just look at all the stands there. Finding any in a nursery is a crap shoot here in America. Lots of pots, and not a Royola in sight!!!

I almost bit the end of my tongue off when he got to the mini tridents....

Urabe Yohoen nursery in Osaka.

To enlighten some of us, how do those large nurseries in Japan operate? Commission prices for trees, do sellers rent/lease bench space, maybe even the owner buys and sells them all?
Just curious, as the specimens are amazing and the sheer volume....... just as amazing.

How are most Japanese bonsai nurseries (retails stores) operating with such high volume of valued (in my mind) products which most certainly needs lots of daily maintenance. And who is responsible for that maintenance.

Thanks for this but I am very grateful there is nothing like this near me.

In the first video, did anyone else notice that there were trees in wooden grow boxes? But not a single colander in sight! Our obsession with using colanders as training pots is misplaced.

Congratulations! Best place to be on bonsai nut.

Look at the bright side - you can still read whatever he posts and pick out the good information, but you don't have to deal with him making obnoxious comments about what you post.

Just because they're doing it wrong doesn't mean we have to.
