padBeginning Bonsai

By Shirley and Larry Student

Writing especially for those with no bonsai experience, Shirley and Larry Student cover everything from buying the first plant to creating a miniature landscape of rocks, grasses, and trees. In between, they describe different bonsai styles, list important tools, explain pruning and pinching, tell what to do with trees in winter, and introduce advanced procedures such as defoliation. In short, the authors cover all aspects of bonsai, anticipating common problems and offering practical advice gained from years of working with plants.
