What is it with these trees?


Tree Posted by Hello
So, is this like a giant bonzai? (Is that how you spell it?) There are sculpted trees all over the place. This one is inside Wakayama Castles's inner walls. Very pretty it is too. But why do it? More to the point - how is it done? Is it cut like that? Is this planned or spontaneous? Can't imagine it's a spur of the moment thing, so how does it get planned? Who plans how to sculpt a tree? And, when nature is so important, how come sculpting nature is so important? I don't get it!
