The second air layer I took from my maple. The first one was super small and may not make it but it was already dead on the branch. This one has great roots. #bonsai #airlayer

Just accepting that as a beginner in my bonsai journey there's going to be some casualties. So I'm going to semi journal my deathpool of sorts.

Here's a collection of my favorite roots.

09.03.2025 13:38 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Thuja occidentalis. Did well most of the winter then in the last 2 weeks dried up & is practically dead. Lots of feeder Roots, nice & healthy & when i scratched the trunk it's still got life in it but other than that most foliage was burnt & gone. Saved what I could of new growth. COS: 30% #bonsai
09.03.2025 13:20 โ ๐ 6 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Cryptomeria japonica. Will say this one has a great nebari that you can't really see in this picture but flares quite nicely. Very affected by the cold. The lower branches had some damage. We will see if it survives this trim. #bonsai
09.03.2025 10:42 โ ๐ 8 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Out with the 'Vid for the week & the steroids I was on gave me a bit of energy so I finally messed with my trees. Do I think they'll all make it to next fall? Nah. Think alot of these didn't do well over the winter but I will have to keep notes on what many things I will probably do wrong. #bonsai
