Among the lovers and admirers of bonsai are many who find infinite pleasure in growing their own bonsai? The satisfaction of creating with their own hands the beauty of nature in miniature. Although there are several publications on bonsai, very few books have been published for beginners. This book is designed to equip those who wish to embark upon growing their own bonsai with the knowledge and skills to do so.
