Semi-cascade Juniper Bonsai, Washington, DC

Semi-cascade Juniper Bonsai, Washington, DC by Grufnik.
A Juniper bonsai collected, designed and developed by Harry Hirao and displayed at the National Bonsai and Penjing Mueseum at The United States National Arboretum. This very old, semi-cascade style bonsai was probably collected in the White Mountains of California. The shari (deadwood on the trunk) is very prominent on this bonsai, leaving only one stripe where the tree is connected between its leaves and the roots.

Thanks to Kyle House for contributing information on the tree.
