By Won Hoe Sik, Korea
FEATURED ON THE COVER: Juniperus chinensis, 82 cm. This species can be planted in any condition whether it be cold, hot, dry or wet. It grows in boreal, tropical, and subtropical climates. It is widely used in Bonsai because of its versatility. Since it has characteristics of high plasticity, bonsai masters use the deadwood to style natural snowy scenery, using brown, white and green colors in the presentation. It is a very enjoyable and successful bonsai creation in IC Su’s Bonsai Collection. IC Su is the host and organizer of BCI’s 60th Year Anniversary Convention in Taiwan.
