The Century Aged Bonsai
Antonio Buensuceso Joel yang puno sa iyong estimate mga ilang taon na?
Joel Castro Maybe around a hundred years old na. This is a slow growing hardwood tree, commonly known locally as Bantigue, scientific name is pemphis Acidula, grows only in craggy rocky shorelines. A voracious water consumer, needs lots of calcium from saltwater. I regularly feed the tree with fish bagoong and salt. Every other day, the foliage are sprayed with seawater to thicken the leaves. Wiring of secondary and tertiary branches are also done from time to time depending on the overall appearance of the tree. Mahirap na masarap mag Bonsai, but it's all worth it....very satisfying and also a very good stress reliever.
The TRUTH will set you FREE.
