IL SACRO MONTE FUJI. 1970/2020. LA VERA STORIA DEL FAGGIO PATRIARCA, PLURIPREMIATO DALLA NIPPON BONSAI ASSOCIATION. Rappresenta la Storia del Bonsai in Italia. A cura di Armando Dal Col con la moglie Haina. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yIxPwe2ueSI
 

Sera d?autunno sono giunto alla fine del cammino e ancora non muoio Matsuo Basho (1644-1694). Autumn evening I have reached the end of the journey and I still don't die Matsuo Basho (1644-1694). Era il mese di marzo del 1970 quando scorsi il faggio in questa massa arbustiva. Mi fece pena osservandolo da vicino, e dato che avevo con me una forbice e un piccolo seghetto, decisi di ripulirlo dai rami circostanti, e di fare una drastica potatura alla pianta. It was March 1970 when I saw the beech in this shrub mass. I felt sorry for watching it closely, and since I had a scissor and a small hacksaw with me, I decided to clean it of the surrounding branches, and to do a drastic pruning of the plant.
 


 

Il Faggio visto nella primavera del 1982, dopo la grande esplosione dei nuovi germogli. The Beech tree seen in the spring of 1982, after the great explosion of new shoots.
 


 

Reclaimed beech cavities. To my surprise, I had noticed the presence of numerous carbine pellets in the cavities. The hunters had fired on the birds that unaware of the danger were alighting on the fronds of the beech. Furthermore, the long stay of mosses in the hollows of the trunk had rotted them and also developed pathogenic fungi.
 


 

The beech has undergone several interventions over the years: it has been cleaned, pruned, chiseled, grafted, tied with wire and tie rods, regularly repotted to contain the root system. Now it has come back to life, indeed to life itself, gaining the dignity of a tree, rightfully entering the history of the great Western and Eastern Bonsai masterpieces.
 


 


 


 

Year after year, the beech improves its appearance more and more.

The spring leaves of the beech are so inviting that you'd want to make a salad!
 


 


 

Spring of 1986; the beech was presented to the judgment of the Nippon Bonsai Association, and with a very pleasant surprise it was awarded the prestigious award. The silky buds "pulsate" with life, and the first leaflets already appear. It is an exciting sight, as in a few days the tree will be covered with a myriad of tender leaves. The beech was repotted a month earlier in this precious Japanese Tokoname craft vase, specially built by an old master potter, who had used an ancient technique now disused for cooking the vase, such as controlling the cooling with the fire of grass which has given it a ?vitrified? appearance.

Le foglie autunnali del faggio, assumono una colorazione giallo avana di impareggiabile bellezza. The autumn leaves of the beech take on a brownish yellow color of incomparable beauty.
 

La pioggia fredda notturna ha indebolito i piccioli delle foglie, sia del faggio, sia dell?acero; mentre gli aghi gialli del larice stanno perdendo il loro colore giallo oro.
 

Cold night rain has weakened the petioles of the leaves, both of beech and maple; while the yellow needles of the larch are losing their golden yellow color.
 


 


 

March 2005, the radical apparatus of the Patriarch Beech laid bare for the umpteenth time. Seven years had passed since the last repotting, but I could not wait any longer, since there were two or three branches that they showed evident signs of "tiredness".
 


 

Spring 2005, the awakening of the Patriarch Beech always arouses immense emotion. The thirty years that have passed since its removal from the place in nature, (plus five years of care in the place of growth), are a distant memory for the Beech, and its evolutionary path as a Bonsai has faced it with great vigor. , thanks to the loving care of Armando Dal Col and his wife Haina.
 


 


 

February 2008, the Patriarch Beech covered with snow. The place of honor in the garden area was reserved for the Beech which makes it look like a trophy, proud of having reached the highest levels in the international arena.

Dopo aver rimosso la pianta dal vaso, Haina controlla la ramificazione.
 


 

Nei miei trascorsi, usavo inserire pezzetti di polistirolo come drenaggio.
 

L'apparato radicale viene ridotto.
 

I pezzetti di polistirolo mantengono sane le radici.
 

Haina con calma libera buona parte del terriccio fra le radici.
 

Siamo arrivati al 60% della riduzione delle radici.
 

L'apparato radicale lavato e pettinato.
 

Ancora qualche sforbiciata.
 

After removing a high percentage of roots and soil, including the pieces of polystyrene that served as drainage, - keeping the roots healthy and vigorous -, the root system was "combed" and washed with water.
 

Ultimi ritocchi.
 

Preparazione del drenaggio nel vaso.
 

viene aggiunto un'alta percentuale di humus di lombrichi.
 

Primo aprile 2008, l?ennesimo rinvaso del faggio, sempre reinserito in questo pregevolissimo vaso che mi fece il Maestro vasaio di fiducia della Famiglia Imperiale del Giappone. April 1st 2008, yet another repotting of the beech, always reinserted in this precious vase that made me the trusted Master potter of the Imperial Family of Japan.

PRIMO APRILE 2019, ENNESIMO RINVASO DEL FAGGIO PATRIARCA DOPO BEN UNDICI ANNI! FIRST APRIL 2019, NEXT REPOT OF THE PATRIARCH BEECH AFTER ELEVEN YEARS! Il mio allievo Riccardo, frequente visitatore del giardino, mi ha aiutato nella fase preliminare del rinvaso del Faggio Patriarca. My pupil Riccardo, a frequent visitor to the garden, helped me in the preliminary phase of repotting the Patriarch Beech.
 


 

E? stato faticoso, ma alla fine ci siamo riusciti a togliere la pianta dal vaso. It was tiring, but in the end we managed to remove the plant from the pot.
 


 

Haina libera buona parte del substrato.
 


 

Tengo inclinato il faggio per favorire il lavoro di Haina, nell?eliminazione di un?alta percentuale del substrato insieme alle radici. I keep the beech tilted to facilitate Haina's work, eliminating a high percentage of the substrate along with the roots.
 

A poco a poco il terriccio fra le radici viene tolto.
 


 


 

The compactness of the roots in the last eleven years has become tenacious. A Japanese tool with dragon claws helps me in this operation.
 


 

Abbiamo sistemato una tavoletta di legno per facilitarci il compito di inserire la pianta nel vaso. We have placed a wooden tablet to facilitate the task of placing the plant in the pot.
 

L?uso di un grosso bastone mi ha permesso di far avanzare lentamente il voluminoso substrato della pianta, fino a inserirsi agevolmente nel vaso. The use of a large stick allowed me to slowly advance the voluminous substrate of the plant, until it fits easily into the pot.
 


 

Ora Haina si appresta ad inserire il terriccio ricco di vari elementi.
 

Now Haina is preparing to insert the soil rich in various elements.
