    actually, believe it or not, the act of dwarfing trees originated in egypt long before china or japan… the chinese how ever picked up on this art and called it penjing- tree in a small pot, then the art carried on throughout asia and was known as bonsai by the japanese……

    1.good sunlight from either east or west.
    2.also wet the leaves because they grow greener.

    actually, the art originated in China before influencing Japanese tradition.

    In your “more info” section, you say that Bonsai is Chinese. It is not. Bonsai is a Japanese art. The Chinese have a similar are, not as refined as Bonsai, called Penjing.

    As for tools, concave cutters are essential. Japanese-made tools, pots and wire are far superior to Chinese or Korean.

    To be honest, this is all you need to be in bonsai from the stuff he said, good branch cutters and some razor sharp scissors. The rest is really optional. Like for wire….. you can use other stuff you get for 5 bucks at the local hardware shop.

    I agree with leefyboodle. Not to be replicated in any way but i managed to do an entire shari on my jap maple using a screwdriver and a hammer. Tree survived.

    I got my first bonsai at a mall. It came in a package and is in seed form. I think its called jack pine or pinus banksaina

    I use the brush to clean off the dirt from the Nebari (surface roots that spread out)

    Bonsai Pruning

    bonsai tools cost a bloody fortune if you want the proper stuff…You don’t NEED any of it…You can just get ordinary tools to do exactly the same job…Although the scissors having a cutting edge not a crushing edge is about all ya need..go dig in your dads tool kit.

    F.Y.I The broom is called a coco brush,and its not just used clean the outside of the pot its used to clean the top of soil in the pot and there are many other ways to use it when working on bonsai.

  • Bonsai Tools

    The broom is to clean up any dust or soil off the sides of the pots
