In japanese a cascade bonsai form is called a kengai bonsai. Its root end was planted into soil while the cut end sprouted leaves.
The main trunk of a bonsai in a cascade form will bend downward past the lip of its container and past its root line.
Ficus bonsai cascade style. First a cascade bonsai is not a tree that s been simply bent down and forced into a cascade. You typically see this bonsai in a tall skinny pot that is used to raise the bonsai off the ground to give it room to cascade. The cascade style is one of the most popular bonsai styles used today.
The branches on the main trunk will reach both out and up as though it were striving for the sun. The plant is now on the way to becoming a unique cascade style. Training a ficus tree in the full cascade style involves miniaturizing the tree by pruning branches and roots and wiring it into shape to look like a windswept tree growing down an embankment.
Second the first descending angle is important. Next it s never pretty to watch a man pee. If you can picture a tree growing on the side of a cliff spilling off the mountain this is what cascade is meant to mimic.
This plant was a piece of aerial root removed from the original plant. While not all ficus will sprout from root cuttings this species is one that sprouts easily from larger pieces of root or branch cuttings. That s what really makes a cascade believable.
We should let the trees growth decide the style. These natural catastrophes will twist the tree downward in nature and so it is with a bonsai in the cascade form.
