Description: The traditional choice for use when making severe bends with larger and/or older branches in bonsai! Natural Dried Raffia comes from the refined fibers from the Raffia Palm. They come in flat and long strands. These dried strands are thin and soft to the touch, which makes them great for various uses in bonsai! They are about 3.5 ft in length. Raffia encourages and enables oxygen exchange so the tree’s cambium layer can stay intact and continue functioning as normal while still providing the tight compression and bark protection needed to help create big dramatic bends with larger and older branches when shaping your bonsai. Ideally, you would want to wrap the branch with raffia before putting on your shaping wire and/or guy wire to the thick branch you're working with. Go VERY slowly when you're wiring and moving it into its new position! Listen carefully for any sharp popping or cracking sounds since this means that the wood inside the branch is breaking and no further movement should be done to the branch. Since this natural product has a light color to it, you're able to dye it darker to better match your tree's bark color; if you so wish to do so.
