Root Over Rock Style

Root Over Rock Style

  • In nature rocks and tree always go together. These can be formed when a seed lands in a crack in a rock and finds enough soil to survive, its roots growing to spread among the thin layers of soil and moss across the rock or when the roots slowly grow over and around the rock to the soil below, partially encasing the rock.
  • In bonsai, this effect is created by spreading roots over a rock and then allowing the roots to develop.
