BONSAI

BONSAI

Around 1960 a new word began to be heard all over the world: bonsai. At that time few enthusiasts were familiar with it and these plants were called dwarf plants. Nowadays the following definition is often given: Bonsai is a living tree in a pot or on a rock. It does not only represent the natural beauty of the plant in question, but its appearance is reminiscent of something else, be it a forest, a landscape or a majestic solitary tree.

Bonsai is the end result of different disciplines: botany, art, philosophy and technique (such as pruning and wiring). There are an infinite number of species that can be worked as bonsai, so if you introduce this hobby into your life, you can be learning something new about them every day.
