Sanya Coral

Coral is commonly known as the "stone flower of the sea" in Hainan due to the spectacular color and elegant shape of the coral found here.

Corals of various color are used together with shells and other natural products according to traditional techniques used in Bonzai. Bonzai (contrary to popular western conception) is in fact the arrangement of objects, in this case coral, and not, a type of tree!
