    It’s a bit cheeky rocking up to Tokyo and asking them to just give you fifty Bonsai trees!

    words are seiju elm leaves too small to express miracles. it is as if the quintessence of the japanese heart is revealed in a fragment of nature. i am eternally grateful for the mind and spirit of the japanese for gifting the world, for turning water into wine.

    Hello! I am one of your subscribers in Barcelona Spain, very far from you. I can't believe you only get four comments, I like to walk around the museum this and the previous, history, passion, nature, keep it up and do something to promote yourself

    this virtual tour is a great thing to make available, but very odd not to list the CITY/LOCATION of the garden. National Bonsai Foundation, you should always give your location! It's ok everyone reading this - please don't reply with the location, I can look it up. I'm just making the point that people all over the world will watch this video and there's no reason to think they know that the U.S. National Arboretum is in Washington, D.C. The National WW1 Museum, for example, is in Kansas City, Missouri. Thanks again for the tour. I'm hoping to visit in person some day!
