Brock and Brandon Garden Ambitions

About this episode

The episode discusses the transition from repotting season to garden building, featuring insights from Brock and Brandon on landscape design.

In the world of being a bonsai professional at Mirai the end of repotting season makes the beginning of another very exciting and dramatically different scope of work. Think of the season for garden building and landscape work as a palette cleanser for the long season of watering and bonsai madness that awaits once trees enter the post-flush phase. Every year, Ryan takes time to celebrate a job well done repotting and indulges in his second love of building Mirai. This year, Brock and Brandon are here to help and pick up a few tips and tricks of the garden and landscape design realm they can incorporate into their own future bonsai facilities. Listen in for a light conversation about the team’s garden ambitions, hopes for the next month, and random tangents of inspiration and fascination that will inform the shape Mirai takes in 2026.
