I also appreciate bonsai trees. I tried it, once, and I used to have a plastic bonsai tree when I was little. I especially like 'forest' groupings.
 
That first one was a Japanese Black Pine... Very difficult to grow, and they spend years dwarfing the needles. I have a book of Bonsai from John Yoshia Naka, a brilliant Bonsai artist. Thank-you for sharing those beautiful trees with us. :)
 
I've always loved Bonsai trees.

It is a fact that western people now love those bonsai rather than Japanese people.
Those bonsai was once a side buisiness of samurai.
We Japanese are too busy to enjoy those expiratory hobby.
I hope you enjoy this hobby with many aspect.

When I saw the display of bonsai yesterday, I just remember Cadeus-san loves it. So I took some pics and posted them up. And I think how about to make a minuature of bonsai and put them in the vihicles crew lounge.:rolleyes
 
The skill and patience required to maintain a Bonsai is awe inspiring to me. The fact that they can live for 300 years and maintain their beauty like that is incredible.
 
Yes it's amazing - I imagine there'd be a less-caring generation there who misses the watering job and out the window goes a couple centuries worth of work.
 
Gosh, I miss Japan. I was stationed up in Misawa for 3 years and loved every second of my time there.

Misawa is a nothan part of Japan and very beautihul place. I'm glad to hear you had a wonderful time there.
There' s a Tsugaru strait between the main land Japan and Hokkaido. It's a very important place to watch over the activity of Chinese Navy and Russian Navy.
The US Airforce Base in Misawa is very reliable with its high performance.
I wish you come again someday soon.

No doubt, I'll be that less-caring generation:lol

Thanks for looking, Jazz-san
