Style NEAGARI

 

When I think about this style, a place comes to mind in mountain where I approach me in the summer for some relax. Well there is here a lake whose the water's level, in this period it goes down of very, for which all the roots of the trees go out and they stay exposed to the air. And a show to see these trees with these roots that assume the strangest forms. In nature however there are other situations that create this type of trees. All it takes is thinking to a tree that grows on a promontory, which is exposed to strong reverses and torrential rains that wash the earth around the roots which they take then the aspect and the hardness of the trunk and they become part of it, really because exposed to the sun and the rain.. Unfortunately however it is rare to see bonsai in this style more and more. It is not to populate anymore, you/he/she has been him/it in Japan in halves last century. To realize a bonsai in this style is not difficult. Enough for example to choose a plant (cried that has roots strong Pino, Maples tridents, Buganville, Azaleas.) to put her/it in cultivation in a narrow and tall vase, and every six months to cut a piece of vase and to eliminate the earth leaving always exposed a greater part of roots.
