Default [IBC] kengai bonsai tree care

Steve: I believe "Kengai" is a brand name for one of the mallsai
producers. They are usually Juniperus procumbens. This is a bit
confusing for some, because kengai also refers to a style of bonsai
which is known in English as the cascade style.
As for the glued on rocks, most white glue is water soluble, so
a soaking in warm water should make the removal easier.

I was at the nursery where they put these "Kengai" together.
They use a white glue to hold the rocks in place. If you think this
would help to figure out how to get the rocks off. I think if you
lightly chip away at a spot in the gravel you can get it off without
harming the roots.
