We have videos on Bonsai progressions (with before and after shots of Bonsai being styled), exhibitions and videos explaining techniques. Enjoy watching!
Most beautiful Bonsai trees
Enjoy these twelve beautiful Bonsai trees that we have filmed in the last few years. These Bonsai were displayed at the Bonsai-San show, the National Arboretum, the Taikan museum and the US National Exhibition.
Japanese Tokonoma
At the Bonsai-San show held two weeks ago, David Benavente and Andres Alvarez Iglesias both set up four Tokonoma displays. This traditional method of displaying Bonsai trees, together with an accent plant and scroll, is difficult as it should follow the style of tree as well as the current season. Oscar interviewed both David and Andres and took several photos of the displays too. Enjoy!

Masashi Hirao Bonsai demonstration
Masashi Hirao (aka Bonsai warrior) travels around the world as a Japanese cultural envoy. Last weekend he gave a interesting Bonsai demonstration at Deshima Bonsai, styling a Spruce. Enjoy the video!
Bonsai video
Sorry to have kept you waiting, but we＊re finally done. Several days of filming and lots of hard work resulted in the best Bonsai video we made so far. We filmed ten trees, including a blooming Wisteria and a bright red Acer Palmatum, a very diverse selection of true Bonsai masterpieces. Please feel free to share the video!
Progression videos
This post shares a few videos of progressions, very useful to understand the steps involved with styling Bonsai trees in a limited amount of time. These videos were shot at the Bonsai-San show, and are demo's by Ryan Neil, David Benavente, El Tim, Mario Pavone and Matteo Martin.
Bonsai Masterpieces video
A year ago we decided to start the big project of shooting a series of short, but inspirational Bonsai videos. To celebrate the completion of the project, we created one video with all the best footage. Sit back, relax and get inspired by seven minutes of Bonsai Masterpieces!
Creating a Shari
In this video, Taiga Urushibata explains how to create a Shari (deadwood part of the trunk) on a Bonsai. The trick is to study the live veins on the tree carefully, and only remove those parts of the trunk not linked to the branches above it.
From good to near perfect
We were incredibly honored to have the famous Bonsai master from Tokyo, mr. Kunio Kobayashi, join in on our 15th anniversary celebration. We asked him: what makes a Bonsai truly great?
