The Sabamiki style
Hollow Trunk Style

The Sabamiki style in bonsai is distinguished primarily by the presence of cavities or fissures in the tree trunk. These cavities can be of different sizes and shapes, and they create a unique visual aspect. These features give the tree an appearance that tells a story, perhaps evoking natural injuries or artistic interventions.

The branches and leaves of the tree can be arranged in various ways depending on the creativity of the artist, but it is the cavities or fissures in the trunk that are the central feature of the Sabamiki style. These cavities can add a dimension of mystery and character to the tree, making it particularly appealing to bonsai enthusiasts.
