What is Forest Bonsai style (Yose-ue)
A forest style bonsai is one of the best way to replicate images suggested by nature itself. With it we don’t have just the chance to reproduce one single tree, but its entire habitat.
A forest like composition is created grouping a bigger amount of trees, most of the time of the same species, in different sizes (height and thickness), to create a various environment and to favorite prospective. The trees are usually in odd numbers, with a taller leading tree that is creating the apex of the composition, and smaller trees surrounding it. Smaller trees are placed in the back to give a sensation of deepness.
The pot chosen for this style are really shallow, to emphasize the trees height.
Caring for your Olive Forest Bonsai style
During the growing season feed the tree every week with liquid fertilizer such as organic liquid seaweed or our slow release feed. Bonsai trees require a balance of sunlight and shade to thrive.
Maintenance pruning can be done throughout the growing season, from early spring to late autumn for outdoor Bonsai. Indoor Bonsai can be pruned year-round. For most trees, pruning two to four times a year is recommended.
