The two trunks rise together, wavering as if you could almost hear them creek. This strange and majestic form reminds the viewer of the image of a mysterious hermit living in solitude deep in the mountains. This bonsai is of a breed of Japanese apricot called “omoi-no-mama”, which literally means “to one’s heart`s content”. This breed blooms red and white flowers separately.
