Our Fascination
with Forests Creating a bonsai
forest with the
Genotti method
By Danilo Scursatone, Italy
Translation by Danilo Scursatone and Joe Grande
urely among bonsai compositions, the forest style provides greater understanding and visual impact
for the viewer, even for those unfamiliar with bonsai. Immediately, the forest in miniature is able to
bring to mind an environment in which at least once in your life you have experienced. You may also
recall particular feelings that sometimes conflict: protection or fear, refreshing shade or bitter cold, joy
Sor melancholy... and much more.
The forest can consist of deciduous or coniferous trees of the same species or different species, but with similar
biological needs: soil, light, humidity, and all that is indispensable for the life of those species and that which
the area, colonized with its macro and micro environment, offers. More often we encounter forests composed
of the same species.
