Welcome to the bonsai styling section of West Coast Bonsai. In the future we plan to have a number of different basic bonsai styles displayed in this section. Most of the stock we will use is common to the southern california bonsai artist. To start thing off here is a list of the five basic bonsai styles using real trees. Here is a list of typical plants used for bonsai.

Basic Bonsai Styling 101

To start this section off here is our first project of 2005 a small three plant group of large Hollywood Junipers.

Hollywood Juniper (Juniperua Chinensus var. torolosa)
Group Planting
Starting height 38" width 28"

The group was part of 5 plants taken from 15 gallon nursery stock bought in May 2002. They were about 8' tall and very stringy with little or no lower branches but for $35 each I saw some future. The first thing I did was cut them to a height of about 40" and let them go for the rest of the year. One of the plants didn't make it through the scorching summer of 2002.

Finished height 34" width 25"
