That is one awesome bonsai, from the Edo period
or early Tokugawa reign. Planted when the unification
of the country was just starting.

For a dramatized view of this time check out the
“Tokugowa Chronicles” on Youtube.

A 13 part series with English subtitles.

If it hadn’t gone through the atomic blast; the tree would be 80 feet tall.
It was 80 feet tall before the bombing; now its only Bonsai height.

impressive... my dad’s unit was sent into Hiroshima shortly after the bomb dropped (maybe it was Nagasaki, not sure). He lived for almost 80 years, which is 400 years in bonsai time. Just sayin.
