Bonsai Trees

Bonsai is the art of cultivating plants or trees in a pot. This art of dwarfing trees and shaping the trees into aesthetically appealing shape requires the shaping and elimination of twigs or branches. Constant pruning and trimming as well as shaping the tree by coiling of wires to get the desired shapes.

really wonderful bonsais, Teo. I have also one, but I was so sorry for him in his little pot and I gave him a big one and now he`s getting bigger and is also looking very good and a little bit glad, I believe.

I admired the art but I hate to do it as I think it's so cruel! Can you imagine someone twisted your arms and legs into certain shapes they desired??? But they definitely looked unique in it's own way!

Thank you tabblo mates for your valuable comments. I agree it looks like torturing the plant when the artist is shaping the tree, but it takes an exceptional person to cultivate and create a beautiful bonsai or minature trees

Teo, I am trying my hand a this and have 3 small trees in pots. It is such a fascinating art form. thank you for sharing this! I agree with you, and am finsing out first hand, just how hard it is to master this art.

Very nice! I also have a bonsai but I'm having a hard time keeping it alive. Hahaha! It's almost two years old already, but it's slowly wilting...
