Description
General Overview:
Up for auction is a powerful and visually striking Juniperus Procumbens 'Nana' (Dwarf Japanese Garden Juniper), crafted using the artistic Tanuki (Phoenix Graft) technique. This specimen stands out for its incredible proportions, featuring a massive base and a vertical deadwood element that gives it the appearance of an ancient tree clinging to a mountain peak.
Styling and Aesthetics:
• Tanuki Technique: The living juniper is perfectly integrated with a tall, weathered piece of deadwood that shows deep, natural-looking grains and textures. The fusion creates a seamless transition between the living green and the silvered wood.
• Proportions: This tree boasts an exceptional trunk width of 10 cm, providing a sense of immense age and stability ("nebari") rarely seen in this size class.
• Canopy: The foliage is dense and healthy, currently styled in a wide, balanced triangular shape (40 cm wide) that frames the central deadwood beautifully.
