Forest Bonsai style
                Yose-ue The forest style looks a lot

                like the multi-trunk style, but the
                difference is that it is comprised of

                several trees rather than one tree
                with several trunks. The most

                developed trees are planted in the
                middle of a large and shallow pot.

                The trees are planted not in a
                straight line but in a staggered

                pattern, because this way the forest

                will appear more realistic and
                natural.
