📸 Day 4: Evergreen.

The Yamaki Pine celebrated its 400th birthday this year. It survived the 1945 bombing of Hiroshima; 30 years later it became the 200th birthday present to America from the people of Japan. It is now at the National Bonsai & Penjing Museum, part of the National Arboretum.

A beautifully maintained bonsai tree with dense green foliage is displayed in a rectangular pot against a wooden lattice background.
