Yose-ue 's style is a miniature model of a small forest. Such a group of trees can be seen in any climate zone.
Making bonsai in this style has its own advantage. Yose-ue 's creation can make use of 2-3 year old seedlings. Beginner enthusiasts, who are eager to see the results of their work, they can start working in this style. Even seedlings whose branches haven't developed well can work for this style — the gaps can easily be covered by the branches of other trees standing in the group.
It is preferable to choose trees of a single species, with small leaves or needles. Of course, it's also possible to create a "mixed forest." But in that case, it will be necessary to select species with a similar growth rate and roughly the same leaf size. Because of the miniature scale, a strong contrast in leaf size makes this style unattractive. A combination of coniferous and deciduous trees also won't work.
The number of seedlings is also important. Yose-ue 's creation calls for an odd number of plants .
