Nice; thanks for sharing.
@just.wing.it - he uses a version of your new gift for just a brief moment as he's loosening the first tree from the pot

Everyone thinks Boon just does pines. He does everything! Amazing, really. I don't know how he keeps it all straight.

Man he really gave that tree the business!
Yes. Deciduous trees you can barefoot and cut back hard as long as there are feeder roots.
Did you pick up the message that he planted it deep? That was he's hoping more roots will come off the base of the tree? That's something a lot of people do wrong. They try to expose the surface roots. During the development stage, roots grow better buried.

By the way, those black gloves he's wearing are inexpensive oil change gloves available at Advantage Autoparts. They're non-latex. They come in Boxes of 100.
The black ones are a little thicker than the blue ones, so they hold up a little better.

Thanks for posting the video, and the tip about the gloves. I was wondering what kind they were.
Did he say the first tree was a birch? Couldn't really tell but that's what it sounded like.

The second tree, where he cuts back is a Korean Hornbeam. The first tree, the repotting demo, is a birch.
