Juniperus chinensis itoigawa – Juniper – 33 cm
A Juniperus chinensis Itoigawa bonsai, characterized by a height (excluding the pot) of 26.5 cm, a trunk diameter of 2 cm and a nebari of 9 cm. The plant is grown in a rectangular glazed stoneware pot measuring 18 x 12 x H6.5 cm.
A Juniperus chinensis Itoigawa (juniper) bonsai, an evergreen conifer, is prized for its elegance and resilience in a variety of conditions. Its deep green, needle-like foliage, which is dense and compact, creates well-defined masses that enhance the structure and lend depth to the composition. Over time, the bark tends to crack, taking on a mature appearance, a feature that enhances its character. Cultivated in a rectangular, blue-glazed stoneware pot, it brings out the colour of the trunk and creates a contrast with the bright green of the foliage without detracting from the specimen itself.
Grow bonsai outdoors all year round, taking care to place it in a sheltered spot during the colder months and in partial shade during the warmer months.
Always respect the dry and wet cycles: whenever the soil feels dry to the touch, water it thoroughly. Then wait for the soil to dry out before watering again in the same way.
