The tailoring of this bonsai, from its thick strong roots to its forcefully uprising trunk through to the flickering branches, has created the sense of harmony and continuance found in great trees. Starting with famed industrialist Kaiichiro Netsu and then former Prime Minister Nobusuke Kishi, this bonsai has long been cherished. It was named the first Kicho Bonsai, or bonsai of great importance, by the Nippon Bonsai Association.
