  • Last intensive course at Eisei-en Nashville with Bjorn Bjorholm before they start up the new bonsai nursery in Kyoto sometime in 2025.
    A semi-random collection of impressions of the time and the 8 days of work. Everything from prepping and initial styling of yamadori to detail wire of Rocky Mountain and Itoigawa junipers.

    Wonderfully produced video. What a great opportunity to spend time with Bjorn before he moved away. Thank you for sharing your experience

      Thank you!
      Yes, it really pays of being there for a little longer (especially since the first few days are a bit of a jet-lag daze, it will be a long time before he opens again in Kyoto but with a bit of discipline that gives me a chance to save some money as well.
      Unlikely but hopefully...

      The garden itself will go on sale sometime this spring if I remember correctly but they are already looking at setting up the new place in Kyoto.

    What does Eisei-en mean in English

    • @okurando

      To give the long story (from the website)
      "The term eisei is a combination of two Japanese Kanji characters. The first, ei (永, pronounced ay), is defined as forever, eternal, ever-lasting, and perpetual. The second, sei (青, pronounced say), means young, green, blue, and adolescence. The combined word eisei could, therefore, be interpreted as forever green, eternally young, or ever-lasting youth. Beneath these more direct translations, though, lie several deeper meanings that speak to the core values and principles expressed in the garden - namely, always maintaining a youthful, energetic approach to learning and forever striving to provide for, and transmit knowledge to, the next generation.
      The final character, en (園), means garden or nursery. Thus the name Eisei-en is brought to life, representing the garden's dedication to the future of the global bonsai community."
