Bonsai Trees-What is Bonsai?

What is Bonsai? For most, this is only BON - container in the SAI - tree. BONSAI in Japanese means tree in a container, which is compared with the trees in the nature of proportional smaller copy. And not only that. Bonsai is an art, collaboration with nature, meditation. We need to know the requirements of the plants in nature; we need to be gardeners, architects and philosophers. Our ally is the time, which can not be overtaken. Rare are the shortcuts on the path of creating. They sometimes get experienced growers and masters, but always with the fear to lose, to destroy lives, a tree, the idea makes sense. The oldest bonsai in Japan are over 600 years old and have the status of the national treasure. Specimens that are transmitted from generation to generation are of inestimable value.
