Acer palmatum/ Japanese Maple bonsai from an old bonsai collection, a variety known as Tsunami Beni (5 lobes deeply cut, red tips). The name means red nail – because of the like red tips on the Spring leaves.

This is a big tall tree!

It has green summer leaves. Grown from seed by the previous owner over many years (decades), the tree has a good age demonstrated by the maturing bark.

One of the best features of this Acer is the very good radial spread of roots; it will develop a superb nebari in the coming years.

The maple has been newly slip-potted into good quality soil after being rootbound for a number of years. I would recommend allowing it to grow in its new substrate at least until Spring 2025.

A well-formed natural-looking tree, no wire marks and short internodes. The tree can be wired to get the best out of it. I am expecting that all of these trees will grow substantially this year having been given fresh soil to grow into.

As with all bonsai available on the bonsai4me.com/shop, this tree has been treated with Danu from ProBio Carbon to encourage disease resistance and bushier, better distributed growth habit.

Current height of actual tree 29"/74cm
Planted in a plastic bonsai pot 16"/41cm diameter.
