Another Japanese Shoshin Maple Bonsai

Maple trees make for very good bonsai. With leaf pruning and some wiring it is a lot easier to see the effects of your bonsai training. The twisty nature of some maples lend themselves to interesting bonsai trees. This tree although a young bonsai tree has the character of a much older tree.

Outdoor bonsai trees can only displayed indoor for a very short time, too long and you may end up killing your tree and all the time and love you put into it. So when you  are looking to display any bonsai, please take care that it does not stay too long.

Japanese Shoshin Maple Bonsai

The first display of a young Shoshin Japanese Maple. Bonsai is a cool way to shape nature to fit into a space where you can enjoy it. This tree is showing great promise, with some maturity and and pruning it will become a very nice bonsai. Already looking good with some nice trunk motion.
 The added plastic Sushi was not my idea, this tree as many of my trees is on display for one week at Lee's Japanese. A very good informal restaurant in northern New Jersey.
