Sargent juniper
Juniperus chinensis ´sargentii´

Photographed at the Yonan-so Hotel, Utsunomaiya, this Sargent juniper forms part of the Sudo Collection.
A driftwood style bonsai, with a delicately curving trunk and bright green, fine textured foliage, this is perfectly
complemented by the “Moon and clouds” scroll with which it is displayed. Sargent junipers are ideal for training
in a variety of styles since they have very flexible trunks and branch that can be shaped without damage.
