Sure, appreciating the cherry blossoms while having a picnic under them is the most famous nature-related pastime of the Japanese. But those who look a little deeper know that there is another seasonal occasion that the Japanese are also crazy about and one that lasts longer than the few days of the cherry blossom. It is the autumn leaves, which come in amazing combinations of red, yellow, and even green. The most spectacular are the bright red momiji (maple) leaves – think the flag of Canada. Or the toumei Mini Bonsai Tree Maple!
The toumei Mini Bonsai Tree Maple is a miniature bonsai maple in all its red autumnal glory. It's 106 x 106 x 115 mm (4.2 x 4.2 x 4.5") and made of acrylic pieces that you put together very easily (no tools or glue needed). It comes with a base that is also a box, which you can fill with gravel (also part of the set), and even rake (also included) as you would a real Japanese stone garden. The end result is a quintessentially Japanese autumn scene!
