The Art of Bonsai

Más información sobre el libro

Successful bonsai growing is not simply the technique of growing miniature trees; it is the art of growing them in forms based on the natural growth habit of various species. This is a book on the aesthetics of bonsai. In this revised edition, various additions have been made. It contains photographic updates of those trees featured in the first edition, has a new chart to help clarify the suggested feeding programmes and contains style and refinement sequences, as well as photo-essays on pine prunig, a glass-fibre rock construction sequence, and a selection of photographs of the author's Gold Award-winning bonsai display at the Chelsea Flower Show.
