Japanese Black Pine
Renowned for their golden autumn foliage, aspens are the only broadleaf tree in the Rocky Mountains. Individual aspens live about 100 years. However, aspens reproduce by sprouting shoots from their roots. This allows them to grow in a cohesive grove. Thus, a grove is actually a single living organism that can reach several thousand years in age. Even fire damage will not kill a grove of aspens if the roots remain alive. Perhaps this is why aspen trees are symbolic of determination and the overcoming of fears and doubts.
The aspen is the most widely distributed tree in North America and the second most widely distributed in the world. The aspen grows from the Atlantic coast as far south as Virginia up through Alaska and the Arctic Circle. In the western states, aspen lives in the western at higher elevations, usually between 6,500 and 10,000 feet, in high plateaus and alpine areas.
The characteristic fluttering of aspen tree leaves is one of their most notable attributes. Aspen leaves are flat in cross-section rather than round. This means aspen leaves can twist from side to side or flutter while remaining fairly stable vertically. The shimmering effect that results creates the characteristic aspen “quake.”
The bark of aspens contains chlorophyll so that aspens can continue growing even in the winter months. Aspens like cool, dry summers, lots of sun and heavy snow in the winter. Aspens are often found growing in association with pine trees, cottonwood and willow trees.
Aspens are an important source of food and shelter for an estimated five hundred species. The leaves, twigs and bark are favored by deer and elk as well as black bears, cottontails, porcupine, and snowshoe hares, grouse, quail, shrews, mice, and beaver.
Aspen are also valuable for paper production, livestock forage and wildlife habitat. Although not strong enough for most types of building, aspen boards are sometimes used for barn floors and horse stalls.
All in all, aspen trees are amazing plants that add their unique qualities to countless forests across our planet. Look for nature’s shimmering beauty next time you take a walk in the great outdoors!

Wave, Cloud, Pine: Traditional Patterns in Japanese Design $35 This beautifully illustrated volume presents Japanese paintings, textiles, and traditional crafts which feature three highly significant motifs of Japanese culture: waves, clouds, and pines. One of the most iconic and enduring images from Japanese art is Hokusai’s famous Great Wave, a painting largely credited with inspiring the French artists of the nineteenth century, mainly the impressionists, to see depth and perspective from a unique, perhaps Japanese, viewpoint. The Japanese have many different words for clouds, the use of which depends on the season, the shape of the cloud, or the particular situation. Clouds in Japanese art are often depicted in unique iconography that is in sharp contrast to traditional Western portrayals. In early Japanese society, traditional performing arts, including Noh, were often performed under pine trees. Pine trees are regarded as sacred objects and are still often seen in the backgrounds of Noh theaters today. It is rare for a Japanese artist or photographer to present an aesthetically beautiful landscape without pine trees, as is evident in the many illustrations and photographs in this book. Over 120 works dating from the fifteenth century through the present are featured in Wave, Cloud, Pine. |

Snow, Wave, Pine takes a close look at some of the most classic of those patterns, enabling the reader to recognize and appreciate these motifs wherever they appear, and providing inspiration to anyone interested in design or arts and crafts.brThe first half of the book introduces seventy-five important patterns, as depicted on a variety of objects. Seeing the lotus blossom or flowing water patterns, for instance, on antiques including brocaded kabuki robes, lacquerware trays, and metal sword guards throws into relief the patterns themselves, rather than the objects, making possible a new level of understanding and enjoyment. The informative text describes how each pattern arose, and the significance it had in terms of art, religion, and even politics. The reader has a sense of being empowered to look at any Japanese art, craft or design form with a new and educated eye.brThe second half of the book shows a rich and dynamic selection of more th@B¸Që…ÿ¾Úx |
