DESCRIPTION

The shohin bonsai of Acer buergerianum (maple), a deciduous species, is prized for its distinctive foliage, which displays a spectacular range of colours as the seasons change. During spring and summer, its leaves are a vibrant green, whilst in autumn they take on shades of red and orange, until the bonsai sheds its leaves in winter. It is cultivated in forest style (yose-ue), in which several trunks of different sizes and heights are arranged in a seemingly random yet carefully studied manner to create depth and perspective. The slender, slightly sinuous trunks contribute to a natural and dynamic effect, whilst the asymmetrical arrangement of the trees faithfully evokes the irregularity of a woodland setting. The oval pot, made of brown glazed stoneware, enhances the colour of the foliage and elegantly and naturally showcases the bonsai, echoing the colours of the earth and bark.

How to keep your bonsai healthy
Icona esposizione
Location

Protect the foliage from the strongest summer sun; expose the bonsai to the sun in autumn to intensify the foliage's color. In winter, it's best to protect the root system from frost, especially when grown in very shallow pots or with exposed roots.

Watering

Always observe the wet-dry cycle: whenever the soil feels dry to the touch, water thoroughly. Then wait until the soil dries out before watering again.

Repotting

Repot young maples every two years, and every three to four years for mature maples. Repot in spring when the buds begin to swell, but before the leaves appear. The ideal compost is 60% akadama, 30% prepared soil and 10% pozzolan.
