BONSAI TREE SHOHIN ITOIGAWA SHIMPAKU JUNIPER. We realize that the winter chill has already reached many parts of the U. Height: The height of the tree from the soil line to the top of the apex is 6. Trunk Diameter: The trunk Dia, is approximately 1 inch. This small Itoigawa Shimapku juniper was developed and worked on several times over by the late bonsai master Mr. Masaru (Mas) Ishii and his son Gary to bring to fruition. This tree is small in size, it exemplifies what bonsai is all about. This wonderful bonsai looks like a very old tree. The tree was repotted this past spring so it will not need repotting for at least another two years. As most of you know, the Itoigawa Shimpaku Juniper is a very slow growing tree and for that reason, many will graft Itoigawa Shimpaku foliage to different variety of Junipers that grow much faster i. San Jose or Prostrata Junipers. This Shimpaku is not grafted, it is 100% authentic Itoigawa Shimpaku Juniper. The Itoigawa portion attests to the. Very fine and dense tight. That is light green in color. At the moment the Itoigawa juniper is the Shimpaku of choice so it is much sought after. The amazing light green condensed foliage is. An equally impressive sinuous trunk that shows seasoned character due in part to the twist and turns the trunk makes all the way up to the apex along with the Shari (deadwood). Many consider the Itoigawa juniper one of the most pleasant trees to work with because of its soft foliage and this one is in deed a very beautiful tree. Overall, the composition of this Shimpaku conveys a tree that has weathered the tough times and has emerged as something more beautiful than when it started. The extreme curvature of the trunk and branches gives one the impression of a tree that has spent all of its life in a narrow windy mountain pass. Adding to the synergy of the beautiful canopy as well as the entire composition is an oval ceramic bonsai pot (6×5x2). Thank you and have a great day! On a side note. Ive noticed that not too many sellers talk or write about things that should be done after you receive your tree so I will give you my two cents worth. When you receive your tree unpack it carefully. Cut the tape and plastic wrap from the pot and the branches if applicable. Secondly give the tree a good watering and then put the tree in a partially shaded spot for a few days to allow it to adjust. After several days of adjustment your new bonsai can be reintroduced to bright sun. Good luck and if you have any questions feel free to fire off a message.
