The juniper in matter (Juniperus phoenicea) it is an Italian
essence that she lives well on the bluffs to peak on the sea
and you she has been withdrawn in nature to the 1998 spring
beginning. The harvest of this essence is possible only if
done in February or to August. Taken root very well once him
proper to live in vase; it is very generous and it is not
subject to illnesses being very strong. In nature they exist
solo exemplary very old and it is not had to exceed in their
harvest so that not to risk to extinguish the kind. Hardly
picked, the juniper has been rinvasato in a container with
alone perlite, material usually used in floriculture to
facilitate the formation of roots.

After around one year and a half
from the taking root, has been removed by the perlite and envoy
from abode in a simple terracotta vase, using pure pumice of
different granulometrie extracted by my garden. I have attended
around around two years from the taking root before intervening
and to effect the first formulation. This last has consisted in
the cleaning of the dry wood and in the mass in prominence of
the lymphatic veins. During these two years the vegetation of
the branches has continually been pinched, of a sort of
anticipated Mochicomi is treated and I have manured so much in
prevalence nitrogen and microelementi.



This way' to the first workmanship
Second
workmanship - 2003 -
Before effecting the second workmanship,
I have moved the plant to the definitive vase (Tokoname of
gres). Then I have proceeded to clean the whole dry part
improving what was already done in the first workmanship and not
only. As the plant was grown so much, the branches that didn't
reenter in the new final sketch have been cut and turned into
jin. The front I changed him/it turning the vase with the angle
toward who it observes. This because in this position elements
were seen that in the preceding position they were hidden, as
for example the principal lymphatic vein that went out of the
back and that it made the most interesting plant.


Workmanship 2003. This way to the
Know-SAKU BONSAI AWARD 2003 - First prize

Before the presentation to the
congress UBI 2004 have eliminated a branch that was
positioned too much in low.
The
dry part has emphatically been brushed only before the
application of the liquid JlN. The phase of collecting
in nature had seen the elimination of a branch of around
three meters, that grew under the dry part, in practice
under the head of hair.
After his elimination, the stump has needed about a week
of workmanship, with an electric cutter and with hand
gouges before it harmonized with the impending dry part,
absolutely natural.
This time I have not immediately applied the liquid jin,
but I have preferred to expose her/it to the bad weather
so that the part softest it decayed.
In fact subsequently I have eliminated with the use of
brushes this rotten part, so that the aspect of this
part of dry firewood is entirely similar to the part
created by the nature.
This
type of more juniper is pinched more it grows and the
squames become more greens and fleshy accordingly the stages
tempo.Anches are thickened shortly this kind it has the
dominanaza apicale, but with a good technique of mochicomi
and with the aid of fertilizer fogliario he easily succeeds
in doing so that the whole vegetation of the plant has the
same vigor. The Japanese teachers love a lot this essence of
ours, entirely similar to their junipers.
Exemplary as these, already forged by the nature, I am able
to offer a result almost ended since the first workmanship
with the alone elimination of some branch that doesn't
reenter in the final sketch of the plant. The thread on this
type of essence, has to stay for a longer time a po of the
normal one before the branches hold the desired position.
Every year makes him the selection of the sprigs,
eliminating that is the squames of the preceding season
those that are found inside a stage and that a dead green
color they have. In fact they are those before that the
plant won't bring. This operation she does him to stimulate
and to make to withdraw the vegetation.
