fusion bonsai greg wentzel s trunk fusion projects and more fusion bonsai greg wentzel s trunk fusion projects and more 10 trees that can save the world posted in fusion bonsai on september 17 2015 by greg wentzel several months back a canadian documentary company contacted me and asked to use one of my photos in an upcoming documentary tentatively titled 10 trees that can save the world i agreed to let them use a photo of an albino coastal redwood not my best photograph but one the producers liked the movie is now in post production and is set for release in mid january 2016 for more information about the movie go to http dianasjourney com have fun rate this 2 comments upside down black pine update 8 16 2015 posted in fusion bonsai on august 16 2015 by greg wentzel the needles on my black pine have begun to turn yellow i have fertilized and sprayed with fungicide regularly i was concerned so i asked uncle pete for his thoughts he suggested that i look at the roots this tree is growing out of a hole in the bottom of a grow tray to get it out i have to destroy the tray so i got my rotary tool and cut away a section of the tray as you can see the rootball is intact however there are no signs of roots i was surprised to find this tree has so few roots it is amazing that it has grown so well in the past 3 years instead of putting the tree back in the grow tray i planted it in a bonsai pot it is early to choose a front but this is probably my choice a view from the other side i soaked the tree in a b1 solution for 15 minutes and then set it in the shade i will monitor this tree closely and if all goes well i will begin fertilizing in a few weeks have fun rate this 5 comments upside down black pine update 6 18 2015 posted in fusion bonsai on june 19 2015 by greg wentzel if you follow my blog you already know that i like to try new ideas here is a wacky idea that has far exceeded my expectations i wanted to grow a cascade japanese black pine and instead of fighting gravity trying to force the growth down why not plant the tree upside down and let tree grow upward after i was satisfied with the size i could simply flip the tree over and have a fully developed cascade this tree is very healthy and robust there are even 2 tiny pine cones forming as you can see i have wired the tree to give the trunk more character last year the wire was starting to cut into the bark so i removed it within a week the weight of the trunk had pulled all of the upward growth down so i had to rewire and now will keep it wired until i flip it over on the underside i had to enlarge the exit hole because the trunk had thickened so much that the plastic was digging into it from the other side you can see a lower branch that will become the future apex the current plan is to grow the tree aggressively for another 2 or3 years before repotting have fun rate this 1 comment older entries follow blog via email enter your email address to follow this blog and receive notifications of new posts by email email address follow contact greg trunk fusion projects what is a trunk fusion chinese quince fusion 1 chinese quince fusion 2 chinese quince fusion 3 dawn redwood fusion japanese maple fusion seiryu seed mangetsu azalea fusion ficus fusion bonsai quick tips elevate pots foliar feeding rainwater alternate fertilizers leaf mulch analysis archives upside down black pine my favorite conifer ghost trees john naka tree museum grafting symposium repotting a cascade japanese maple roy nagatoshi workshop seedlings air layering a chinese elm the future billy goat trail trunk fusion crosscut ogon cleft graft growing pines in colanders 2013 potomac bonsai festival satsuki sangosai azalea leaf mulch autumn bonsai colors bob s fusion fence project trident maple root over rock grafting workshop 2014 roy nagatoshi workshop 2014 pba festival 2014 japanese maple 2014 red pine 2014 jules azalea japanese black pine kotobuki 2014 bill daly azalea general sherman s and grant s jins inosculation john naka centennial exhibit raffle ficus graft scars links greg s wentzel s art peter tea bonsai potomac bonsai association national bonsai foundation metasequoia story internet bonsai club frankenbonsai shane martin bonsai create a free website or blog at wordpress com subscribe subscribed fusion bonsai join 125 other subscribers sign me up already have a wordpress com account log in now privacy fusion bonsai subscribe subscribed sign up log in report this content view site in reader manage subscriptions collapse this bar loading comments write a comment email required name required website design a site like this with wordpress com get started
