 Re: Bonsais..good or bad?
Well, how could one say right or wrong, it just is.
My wife used to do bonsais, it's a hobby thing and there's a whole shaded area in our botanical gardens featuring some superb bonsais.
Bonsais are a lot of care and nuturing. The shallow roots require regular spraying and watering and there's continual root pruning along with canopy snipping and wiring.
There's many styles, formal, swept etc and to a degree is an art. My opinion is go for it, if it's your thing and you have the time, they can be very spectacular with roots growing over mossy rocks etc. |
