Goshin - John Naka’s famous bonsai group

Goshin is a renowned bonsai group created by John Naka consisting of eleven foemina planted together and displayed at the National Bonsai & Penjing Museum within the U.S. National Arboretum. Naka donated Goshin to the National Bonsai Foundation, and it has been exhibited as a single, iconic work in American bonsai practice. The planting is widely cited in bonsai literature and is a focal point of the Arboretum’s bonsai collection. The museum cares for and interprets Goshin as a singular artistic and horticultural specimen.
