04 - Apprentice Talk & Bonsai Brainstorming with Julian Tsai & Andy Bello
In the fourth episode of the Bonsai Time Podcast, Ryan shares an old interview from May of 2020 with other noteworthy bonsai apprentices, Andy Bello of the US National Bonsai & Penjing Museum and Julian Tsai of Fujikawa Kouka-en Bonsai Nursery in Japan. Parts of this interview have already been released as a pilot test for what is now the Bonsai Time Podcast, however, in today's release of the full discussion, the latter half includes a never before heard bonsai brainstorm in which Andy, Julian, and Ryan offered ideas for trees which were submitted to us by our readers.
