Some magic there!

From the story: A tree keeps careful record of every year it is alive, and the secrets are all stored in the language of growth rings. Growth rings give away a tree’s age, but they also reveal the climate and many other things about each year the tree was alive. For instance a tree that grows in dry soil ages more obviously than a tree that grows in moist soil.

I guess this is one of the reasons for the soils used in Bonsai!
