Are you not concerned that the stem will be able to support the weight of the cloud later on. I am surprised you chose to keep the stem so long. Would a shorter stem be sturdier and stronger? May be the clouds get bigger the stem will adjust to their weights.
Those side branches on the pom-poms – @ 4:17 rather than cutting them off could you wire them, a bit horizontally, to increase the diameter of pom-poms sooner?
I have volunteer boxwoods that I want to start pruning into topiaries. Thanks for sharing how to do cloud pruning, I'll probably try that style on one. I have eight boxwoods in various sizes, two are nearly three feet tall. I also have two red cedar trees, which were planted by the birds. Once the rain stops, I can start that project. Thanks for sharing your expertise! ~Margie
I just realised who you are. I recommend your book to any new or young gardener to hopefully get them on the right path. It’s the best gardening book I own. I can’t believe you just popped up on YouTube doing what you do best, sharing knowledge. Now I can recommend your channel too. A big thank you from the uk. Good day to you kind sir
I like Pom poms better than clouds.. I enjoyed the way you explained and showed what you’re doing. 👍🏼
Great video, thanks so much for sharing your knowledge
great video! thank you for capturing the various stages.
I have been binge watching your movies here and I am getting closer to what I am after. . . . . . Espalier! I want to try an annual this year, on the south/east side of my house, any recommendations? Zone 5 I should just go for it and get the apple tree, right? 😉 I'm American and want the instant (2 seasons) gratification though. 😔
Great content. Love this channel. You didn't mention other trees to use this cloud pruning on. Is it only yews or evergreens in general?
Back to the channel. . . .
Not trying to be a troll but the yew you showed has a completely different structure than yours. The one you have is a fatter yew the one you showed has a columnar or fastigate skinny structure. I'm such an autistic plant nerd and I'll admit I can cloud prune most anything but doing a pine niawaki style from scratch I screw it up every time. 3 thunderhead pinus thunbergii and 10 years later I've almost got it but I still ain't happy with the new one. Lol
I tried it and it looks great ❣️ Thank you 🥰
Thank you very much! Very interesting and easy to understand! 🙏🏼🌿
Looks great l have three that l have clipped and trained over many years well worth the effort
