This lovely book illustrates the finer points of looking after bonsai, Japanese miniature landscapes and dwarf tree. The creation and care of bonsai form a comparatively simple art which can be systematically taught and learned. Given a reasonably green thumb, a modicum of patience, and the knowledge contained in this volume, anyone can create bonsai and keep a finished plant healthy and vigorous for generations. Included here are detailed instructions, together with helpful diagrams and charts and a treasury of photographs, on every phase of the art: propagation and training, with hints for those in a hurry and for apartment dwellers; daily and seasonal care; dealing with pests; and how to judge, select, and exhibit bonsai. Included also, for those who want still more detailed information, are invaluable appendices concerning tools and equipment, soil analyses, and precise data on the more than three hundred species of plants used in making bonsai.
