Cherry Blossom - Air Layer Fall Root Prune and Update

Cherry Blossom - Air Layer Fall Root Prune and Update Prunus x yedoensis 'Akebono' (Yoshino Cherry) I missed my chance to cut out the branch under this air layer this past spring and I was thinking that I would have to wait until Spring '25 to repot this one. Then I saw Jelle from "Growing Bonsai be Jelle" make the case for why you can do it in the autumn, so I decided to give it a go. Here is his video: https://youtu.be/6wA81vwS4No?si=DG8Zm7YQo0y8yXhV I was a little shy to share the video because I was worried the tree might not do well, but here we are more than a month later and it is still doing well. 00:05 Intro 01:30 Getting started 04:04 Bare Rooted 05:46 Chop Saw 06:27 Checking out how it sits 07:41 Bowl Cut 10:10 Into the ground 11:30 6 weeks later - My channel is mostly Bonsai related, but I make no promises. I like to make videos about air-layering, wiring for bonsai, pruning, growing seeds, and well... anything I find interesting. I am documenting my bonsai progress on YouTube to share what I am up to with my friends and family, to document the progress of the trees so I can look back at them over the years, and maybe show others that bonsai is something that anyone can get started with since really all you need is a tree (or a seed!) and some patience. I've always grown trees in pots; ever since I was a little kid growing apple seeds in elementary school. I think bonsai is a great way to keep interesting species at home without having a lot of space. One of my favorite families of trees are maples, but I'm getting into all sorts of other trees as well. Fruit trees and flowering trees are also super interesting to me, and if it has seeds, I want to try and grow it!
