At one hand I too feel that stunting the growth of a tree is wrong, but on other hand, isnt this special art helping atleast the trees survive in citites, with limited space to plant them on the ground.
Do tell me what is your opininon on this. |
I don't see anything wrong with Bonsai. It is an art form with a rich tradition, and isn't much different from espalier or other training techniques.
