Rock Island Bonsai 1/30/17

ROCKLEAD

One of three impressive rock plantings from Mauro Stemberger's recent bonsai sojourn in India. The trees in all three plantings are Procumbens juinipers. The natural sandstone river rocks were put together with cement. I don't know anything about the pot, except that it's a monster.

Yesterday I wrote that I wanted to feature these three Juniper forests on rock islands by Mauro Stemberger and friends but needed more time to do a little research. We’ll, I couldn’t find the time, but if you’d like, you can do your own research. Here and here are two facebook links. You might also enjoy Mauro’s Italian Bonsai Dream website.
