juniperus chinensis itoigawa ref : 05110241 ref : 12141 Bonsai Juniperus Itoigawa (Juniper) Style: Moyogi Origin: Maître Fujita Nurseries Age: Over 20 years Repotting: September 2024 Specifications: Total Height: 390 mm Branch Spread: 330 mm Trunk Diameter: Approximately 40 mm Pottery: Handmade, unglazed, high quality, brick color, signed, dimensions: 245 mm x 190 mm x 60 mm Plant Description: This Juniperus Itoigawa stands out for its graceful form and robust nature. The Itoigawa variety is particularly appreciated for its vigorous growth and fine green foliage, making it an excellent choice for bonsai cultivation. Unlike Juniperus chinensis, this variety sheds very little foliage in early summer, making it easier to maintain and especially aesthetic. The trunk, already over 20 years old, features shari (bare section of bark) and jin (deadwood branches), indicative of meticulous craftsmanship and a tree in full maturity. The bark has naturally aged and formed, providing an authentic and natural appearance, while the twisted trunk adds a gnarled character, enhancing the impression of depth and antiquity. This bonsai is a true specimen, with original jin and shari, and should not be confused with tanuki (the technique of grafting a young plant onto a dead stump). The front view was slightly modified during the September 2024 repotting, to better showcase the gnarled trunk, a distinctive feature of this bonsai, while also enhancing its overall visual harmony. Care and Maintenance: This bonsai is ideal for collectors seeking a mature, well-balanced specimen. It will require light pruning to maintain its shape and encourage further ramification. It is recommended to cultivate it in a bright environment with moderate watering and well-drained soil. Do you Already have this complete book on juniperus ? Shelf non-included.
