In this episode, Bjorn redesigns a bonsai at Eisei-en originally styled by Japanese professional Naoki Maeoka. Changing another professional's design is always a daunting task and worthy of much thoughtful consideration before diving in. We hope that this new iteration in the evolution of this bonsai is in keeping with Naoki's original spirit!
