A Soft Spot for Tiny Trees 2/22/15

This remarkable little tree has a whole lot going in a very small space: three trunks, great branching, good movement, taper, nebari (more or less) and a well developed apex (tiny leaves don’t hurt either). Altogether, no mean feat. It belongs to Ipunk Bonsai Pasuruan, one of our ten million facebook friends. Beyond that, the only pieces of information listed are: sancang ny (I’m guessing Vietnamese) and SOLD.

I have a soft spot for tiny trees. Especially tiny trees where scale is provided by hands and fingers.

Almost everyday I scroll through ten thousand photos waiting for something to jump off the page. On this day the little tree above jumped out full force. Only problem is it’s the only tree by the artist (Ipunk Bonsai Pasuruan) I could find. Fortunately, we can always count on our old favorite Harayosi with his vast selection of remarkable little trees.
