bonsai
is a resinous shrub of up to 8 meters, evergreen, with deep roots and growing even on rocky substrates, in areas between 100 and 650 meters of altitude. Its wood, of great density and resistance has been part of domestic activity since ancient times. This long-suffering and legendary tree is one of the most significant examples of native flora and has become part of the symbolism of the island of El Hierro.
Something that really characterizes the junipers is the way in which they have been molded, due to the violence of the winds and the climatic conditions of the area, which represent virtually impossible twisted shapes, even touching the ground with their branches.
