Description from the seller

For sale a magnificent and expressive specimen of Juniperus Procumbens 'Nana' (Japanese dwarf juniper) set with the professional Tanuki technique (Phoenix Graft), which provides artistic integration of the living plant with a natural dry wood added to the composition.

This model stands out for its dramatic and dynamic bearing in cascading style (Kengai) or semi-cascading, ideal for those seeking a piece with strong visual impact and a wild character.

Workmanship and Aesthetics

• The Tanuki Technique: The living vein of the juniper blends and gracefully wraps around a sculptural dry wood that extends sinuously outward and downward. The dead wood shows deep grains and a weathered, aged look, creating a perfect contrast with the compact green of the needles.

• The Design: The crown develops laterally forming a dense and healthy "plateau" of vegetation, then projects downward with a main branch that accentuates the cascading movement.

• Trunk and Proportions: With a compact height of 20 cm and a substantial crown width of 37 cm, the plant expresses great maturity and visual stability, balanced by a solid trunk base of 5 cm.

Technical Specifications

• Species: Juniperus Procumbens 'Nana'

• Style: Tanuki (Phoenix graft with added dry wood)

• Trunk Width (base): 5 cm

• Tree Height: 20 cm

• Crown Width: 37 cm

• Pot: Round plastic cultivation pot in terracotta color (dimensions 16 x 16 x 11 cm).

• Plant Condition: The specimen is in excellent health. It is ready to be displayed and cultivated as is to thicken the crown, or can be potted in a future handmade ceramic bonsai pot to further elevate its artistic value.

Cultivation Notes

It is an evergreen outdoor bonsai extremely hardy, robust and resistant to cold climates. It loves full sun positions and very well-drained soils. The added dry wood is already treated and preserved. Represents an excellent choice for both experienced collectors and enthusiasts who wish to enjoy pinching and defining the foliar branches.

Shipping and Packaging

We guarantee professional top-level packaging. The pot and the distinctive lateral extension of the dry wood will be blocked and protected separately inside the package, ensuring the composition arrives at its destination perfectly intact. Fast and fully trackable shipping.
