  FUKINAGASHI       

For this style the branches bend just on one side, thanks to the wind action, as you can observe in nature in the trees growing along the coastline.
When you decide to grow a bonsai tree with this form, you must choose a quite old, strong trunked plant, with regular ramification. Junipers and Pines are suitable for this style.
You should estimate a maximum height of 70 cm and expect a working period longer than 5 years, as these shapes must be improved and modified until the final exhibition, when the wire is no more visible.
