Bonsai production: deformation of old piles of multi-pole privet

Recently, I have been telling the story of this bonsai designer who makes privet bonsai. He dug up old privet piles everywhere, and it was estimated that he would play with privet all his life, one from a friend's house and another from a neighbor's. This one, like the previous one, was dug up from the England / Wales border in August 2004.

Privet tree is easy to grow such a multi-pole shape, the part of the ground is not good, but the old man under the ground is still more interesting. This tree is also a multi-pole book, because it is buried a little deep, and you can't see the pile foundation below. Four or five poles, a grade of branches are all to one side, a bit of a sense of wind.

The production of bonsai pays attention to the nature of the type, a good bonsai is doomed for seven minutes, and one-third depends on man. The second point of fifty-fifty, and then worse is seven points of labor, three points of nature, really poor can only rely on labor. According to the innate conditions, the bonsai master intends to turn the tree into a multi-pole wind-blowing type. A preliminary styling was made for it at the beginning of 2005. After changing the basin, it looks a little more comfortable.

In the twinkling of an eye, the wind-blown privet began to take shape, and several of its tree trunks were carved. One is to cover up the saw blade, and the other is to make a tapered trunk. To make it this way, it has basically taken shape.

Snowing in March

Another year later, in March 2007, the bonsai teacher felt that the wind style was too pretentious and unnatural, so he restyled it. I'm going to turn it into a multi-pole tree. So once one-sided branches are re-bent the direction.

After a year and a half of conservation, the tree has become a big tree in the wind. However, I have to say that the bonsai master made the right decision, and it does look much more natural than the wind.

The carved details on the tree trunk. This man does have a way of carving the old pole of privet, and he does it vividly.

After nearly 5 years of cultivation, this privet tree bonsai has finally taken shape. At the end of 2008, after the fallen leaves, chicken claws were exposed. Then Amoy found a broken basin, although a little big lost, but the effect is still very good, appears to be very simple.
