Bonsai Nursery


I happened to walk by a bonsai nursery today. There were around 50 miniature trees on display in several different styles. The trees were all winterized and didn't have any leaves, and there was a black, tar-like substance placed on the tips of the branches probably to protect the tree from the cold in some way. There didn't seem to be anyone watching over the trees despite the fact that the nursery was open to the street. Theft clearly isn't on anyone's mind here in Japan.
