Much Better!
Here’s the tree that is featured in our last post, in focus this time. It was sent by Ferry Freriks, who BTW submitted the first tree to our Unique Bonsai Contest. Ferry has done his research and here’s what he came up with:
Hello Mr. Schoech,
I tried to post a comment on the post of the Taiwanese tree, but after submitting it, the site told me it was “Too spammy”. So instead I’m sending it by e-mail.
Here’s the full size picture of this tree: http://sidiao.myweb.hinet.net/2004htm/p13.htm ;-) According to the website (http://sidiao.myweb.hinet.net, the personal website of one the best Taiwanese artists, Cheng Cheng-Kung) it’s a Eugenia uniflora, and it’s huge: 100 cm (or app. 40 inch).
Other trees of this exhibition (the annual Taiwan Bonsai Creator Association exhibiton), can be viewed here: http://sidiao.myweb.hinet.net/2004_e.htm
Even better: other volumes (from 2000 to 2008) can be viewed here: http://sidiao.myweb.hinet.net/gallery_e.htm
Enjoy!
Regards,
Ferry
