BCI Excellence Awards

Noelanders Trophy, 2016, Belgium

By Gudrun Benz, BCI Director, Germany

attended this year’s Noelanders Trophy and pre-
sented a BCI Award of Excellence to an outstand-
in
I g bonsai, a Celtis chinensis, Moyogi style, double
trunk of Luis Vallejo, Spain. Here is a short descrip-
tion:

Celtis sinensis,
Double trunk style,
Dimensions (H x W): 95 x 110 cm.

Luis purchased this tree from Danny Use at Ginkgo
in 2006. To promote its natural movement, the first
work on the tree was a structural pruning to select
the main branches as a result of changing the planting
angle to the left. In the ten years that it has been part of
the collection, a great development of the ramification
has been achieved.
The next aim is to realize a pot change, due to its
dimensions and also in order to find a more adequate
color throughout the seasons.
