Introduction
Bonsai trees are small, potted trees that are well-known parts of
the Japanese culture. The living art of Bonsai represents peace
and tranquility, as well as long-lasting determination and
patience. A “bon” is a flat tray or shallow pot, and “sai” means
plant or planting. Originally from China, Bonsai trees date back
hundreds of years and are well known for their miniature
appearance.
Bonsai trees can come in an array of types and can be grown in
a variety of ways. They require daily grooming, but aren’t high
maintenance. Unlike what most people believe, keeping a
Bonsai tree alive and thriving isn’t difficult. They do require
simple attention and need to be tended to at least once a day.
In this book, you’ll learn more about the art of Bonsai and the
history behind it, as well as tips for caring for your own Bonsai
tree.
