A Bonsai Begins: Shocking Japanese Maple Makeover!!!

I bought an eight-foot Japanese maple garden tree reduced from £350 to £100… and cut it down to two feet tall in the garden centre car park. To most people it looked like madness. To a bonsai grower, it was the beginning of something powerful. In this video I take you through the bold trunk chop, the severe root reduction, and the strategic decision to rebuild this tree from its bare bones. We explore why trunk thickness is priceless, how dormant energy fuels explosive spring growth, and why a shallow aerated basket will transform the future nebari. This is not a quick makeover — it’s the first chapter in a multi-year redevelopment where patience, biology and design work together to turn raw nursery stock into a convincing, mature bonsai. Follow the journey as we trade height for strength, shock for vision, and instant impact for long-term mastery. Enjoy 🙏😁🌳 If you enjoyed this video then please like, share and comment.
