If you already know what a bonsai tree is, then I'm sure you've always wanted one. Why? Because a bonsai tree is a miniature tree that you can keep inside, but looks like it's fully grown. You can't get much more awesome than that. But aside from my personal opinion of them, let's talk a little bit about what a bonsai tree is.
A bonsai is created beginning with a specimen of source material. This may be a cutting, seedling, or small tree of a species suitable for bonsai development. Bonsai can be created from nearly any perennial woody-stemmed tree or shrub species that produces true branches and can be cultivated to remain small through pot confinement with crown and root pruning. Some species are popular as bonsai material because they have characteristics, such as small leaves or needles, that make them appropriate for the compact visual scope of bonsai.
This essentially allows the artist to create a sculpture of wire, and watch as the tree grows exactly as the artist had intended. These wiring techniques, when used in conjunction with other Bonsai techniques, allow the artist to shape the Bonsai into unique forms that never would have occurred naturally, such as the Cascade style Bonsai, a personal favourite of mine.
There are various types of Bonsai tree styles that have been created by these same Bonsai artists. These Bonsai styles are developed through the processes mentioned earlier, such as wiring. Before we can understand how these styles come to be, lets discuss what wiring a Bonsai tree is. When a Bosai artist wires a Bonsai tree, they are literally implementing thin metal wires into the tree, and directing these wires in the direction that they want the branches, or trunk of the tree to grow.
There are many DIY videos online which can help you create your own Bonsai tree, and many of which will answer any questions you may have about the process of growing a Bonsai. There are thousands of possibilities when growing your own Bonsai tree, and although it's a long process, you'll feel very accomplished when you look at your completed work of art.
