400 -Year-Old Bonsai Survived Hiroshima Bombing

Sixty five years ago , during World War II, a B-29 bomber known as the “Enola Gay“ dropped the first atomic bomb over the city of Hiroshima, Japan, killing hundreds of thousands of people. Among the survivors was a small tree, a Bonsai, which ended up in the United States as part of a national gift from Japan. The Bonsai, now 400 years old, is still alive, and forms part of one of the most striking collections in the U.S. capital. Producer Zulima Palacio has the story.
