The World of Goyomatsu You Don't Know

The typical image of a bonsai is that of a pine tree. There are many kinds of pine trees in the world. The most common types of pine trees are the black pine and the five-leaf pine. While black pines have a rough, masculine atmosphere, five-leaf pines have a softer, more elegant atmosphere. There are different types of Goyomatsu, and there are three regions of origin and production in Japan.
