Taiga Urushibata grew up in the bonsai nursery Taisho-En Bonsai Garden of his father. A bonsai garden which is kept so clean that you could eat off the floor.

He has studied during six years with master Masahiko Kimura. Afterwards he joined his father in the bonsai studio and nursery.

In recent years he has become one of Japan’s foremost young bonsai artists. He has given demonstrations and workshops in China, the USA and several European countries.

Koji Hiramatsu belongs to the 4th generation of the owners of the Hiramatsu shunsho-en bonsai garden. He learned the art and science of bonsai from his father.

He is a specialist in shohin, but in his garden we can also find a magnificent collection of large bonsai like black pines. He is a member of the Japan Bonsai Coope-rative and of the Japan Shohin Bonsai Cooperative. He is the managing director of the All Japan Shohin Bonsai Association, for which he is also an official demonstrator.

Koji Hiramatsu has given several demonstrations and workshops in the USA, India, China, Australia and also in Holland and France.

He was a headliner at the 7th World Bonsai Friendship Federation convention and at the Asia-Pacific Bonsai & Suiseki Convention and Exhibition in 2011 when it was held for the first time in Japan

He was the chairman of the Takamatsu bonsai convention in 2014.

Mauro Stemberger was fascinated by bonsai already at the age of fourteen. After following workshops with several European bonsai professionals he founded in 2005 the ‘Italian Bonsai Dream’, a group of bonsai enthusiasts to work and enjoy bonsai art.

He is a professional architect since 2006.

He has written several articles in the most important bonsai magazines. From 2008 till 2010 he was President of UBI (Italian Bonsai Association). In the most recent years Mauro was asked for demonstrations all over Europe (also by Bonsai Association Belgium) and in the USA, Mexico and Australia.

A lot of his work was on large yamadori conifers, but the front picture on this pro-gram book is an Alnus of his hands.

After flowering,

it’s time to start work

Azaleas take a rest f

rom growing

immediately after t

hey have flowered

.

This is the ideal mom

ent to prepare them

for the next floweri

ng, but also to tidy u

p

the branches, and t

o repot them.

Although there are s

imilarities in

growing cycles between

all types of bonsai, azal

eas

take somewhat differ

ent routes. June is a

busy

month: as soon as the

y have finished flower

ing,

it is time to set to wor

k, because they will ta

ke a

short pause from growin

g. We therefore have a f

ew

weeks to carry out main

tenance and styling tas

ks.

While flowering is the u

ltimate aim for satisfa

time to start thinking ab

out the next time arou

nd.

This begins with tidying

the plant, removing the

last

flowers and cutting bac

k seed pods.

Looking at the azalea’

s life cycle, we see a

new

growth period starting

from late February. It p

uts

out a bit of foliage, tur

ns green again and sw

ells

out its flowerbuds, whic

h burst into bloom in M

ay–

June.

Preparing for growt

h

During flowering, don’t

water over the flowers

,

as they are fragile and

will collapse and rot, t

aking

all the other flowers w

ith them. Every day du

ring

flowering, remove the

withered flowers to a

llow

others to open out prop

erly. Flowering lasts for

two

to three weeks, but it is c

rucial to cut off the bloo

ms

before they wither c

ompletely, to avoid

•••

2 The satsuki’s flowers

and

fruits have all been r

emoved.

3 After tidying the pla

nt and its flowers, th

e foliage

needs to be trimmed

. To save time, this c

an be done

roughly at first with

a long pair of scisso

rs.

4 The shapes are re-es

tablished by cutting

off

everything that stick

s out and thus redis

covering

the bonsai’s original

form.

5 The second stage is

carried

out with fine scissor

s.

Continue the cutting

back,

removing slender de

ad

branches and those

that cross

over or clash with ea

ch other.

6 Try to simplify the

branches, rather tha

n

seeking to retain foli

age

at any cost. The plan

t

will react strongly to

this procedure. In th

e

end, it will have lost

70% of its foliage m

ass.

1 The flowers are cut o

ff at the base of the le

afstalk as soon as

they start to wither, t

hus removing fertilise

d fruit at the same tim

e.
