Japanese Bonsai in Kyoto - a dying traditional art or a possible revival?

[@kimjorgensen3791]

I really like your videos. You’re a very friendly and informative guide. Also, I really like bonsai. I’ve enjoying growing things since I was a child. Thank you.

Like many things, Bonsai seems super popular as a Japanese cultural export, so it's interesting to hear it actually appears to be in decline. There still seem to be young people taking on the hobby, though - one of the more colorful outliers of the Bonsai world I've recently discovered is a guy called Teppei Kojima, who styles himself as a "Producer" for Bonsai like you'd see in pop music... really quite a different take on the subject. I wouldn't write off this art form quite yet.

Bonsai is still a big deal in NorCal! Lots of classes and “experts”. Good to see you becoming “artsy” in your old age, lol!
