Trunk Diameter: The trunk Dia, is approximately 1.5 inches. Nebari (Root Spread): Tree shows many exposed Roots 3. Many of the trees that we sell are still a work in progress, but this old Kishu (Shimpaku) Juniper is a completed tree that is now show ready. It has never been shown anywhere else until today. The tree represents some of the best material that we have to offer. Nevertheless, many of the masterpiece bonsai trees that we eventually sell were started by the original first generation Japanese bonsai masters that Ive studied under here in the west coast. This tree in particular has been worked on several times over the past years by bonsai masters Kenji Miyata to bring to fruition. This tree was not collected, but has lived its entire life as bonsai. The tree was first styled about thirty five years ago, but only the shaping of the sinuous trunk and development of the primary branches were done. After Miyata-san took possession of the tree he proceeded to add his own classic Japanese style to it. One of the most important factors in creating a high quality bonsai is that you must first start with a tree that has great potential. Secondly, the person that is designing the tree must know what they are doing, because Masterpiece bonsai trees do not happen by accident. The proportions on this Kishu juniper are very attractive; in fact, I would say that they are ideal! Overall, the composition of this small Kishu juniper conveys a tree that has aged gracefully. The subtle movement of the trunk and its branches gives one the impression of a tree that has spent all of its life on an open prairie. The tree has a pleasing composition that came to fruition through much thought, planning, but most importantly through time. Adding to the synergy of the beautiful tree is an old rectangular Japanese ceramic Bonsai pot that is also big (7.5×5.5×2.5).
