After more than 40 years of service, the National Bonsai Foundation (NBF) will conclude its operations at the end of this year. We are deeply grateful to everyone who has sustained our mission to support and safeguard the National Bonsai and Penjing Museum at the U.S. National Arboretum and to preserve and promote the art of bonsai in America.
This decision, reached after careful deliberation by our Board of Directors, marks an intentional transition that is rooted in our commitment to the art of bonsai. As the landscape of support for the traditional arts continues to evolve, now is our moment to pass the torch. For several years, the U.S. National Arboretum has been moving toward a new operational model that consolidates nonprofit engagement under a single partnership. As that vision is now being realized, and with the Arboretum’s designation of - Friends of the National Arboretum (FONA) as its primary partner, the time is right to conclude our operations and ensure a smooth, unified path forward. We will direct our remaining resources toward the ongoing upkeep of the Museum, and to uplifting the next generation of individuals and organizations who carry this living tradition forward.

REBECCA ZANDBERGEN: Michael, describe this bonsai for us. What exactly does it look like?
MICHAEL JAMES: Well, the Yamaki Pine is in a, it's a tree in a container, a ceramic container. And the width of the container, as well as the height of the tree, are about three-and-a-half feet. The tree is almost a foot in diameter at the base where it emerges from the small amount of soil. And it's covered with a rounded dome canopy where every leaf is in full sun and perfectly manicured. This tree just holds a lot of meaning, and it's always up to the interpreter and the viewer. Like any piece of artwork, that meaning is open to interpretation, of course.
RZ: Tell us a little bit about its history. How did it survive?
MJ: Well, it's spent most of its life in the city of Hiroshima. This year is its anniversary year of 400 years. In bonsai, we say a bonsai is in training when it goes into a ceramic container or a type of a container. And that training process doesn't stop. So, this tree has been in training since 1625. So, it originated and was cared for by the Yamaki family. That's how it gets its name, the Yamaki Pine. It was in the family's bonsai nursery. The nursery had walls that would have protected the plant material from being stolen, or from the elements. So, that wall was about 10 feet high, really did the most to protect it from the blast. The house that was on the perimeter of that nursery received concussion blasts that broke out windows, injured family members. The house remained standing, and the family members all survived, but there was a concussion, for sure.
