Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. So far Shufunotomo has published about 50 titles on bonsai in the Japanese language, and this book is based on materials obtained from these publications. Bonsai is an art closely related to nature and, as such, abounds with variety. Not only are there numerous different plant species to be cultivated as bonsai, but each individual tree has its own characteristics. While the particular methods of growing and caring for the trees differ according to the natural circumstances, there are some fundamental principles which remain constant. This book offers the essentials of bonsai to those who would like to get started and those who already have some experience in this fascinating field. We are very grateful to Mr. Yoshio Takayanagi, who helped us compile this book. He is a free-lance writer on bonsai and has edited several books on the subject. We also appreciate the assistance of both Mrs. Kiyo Inoue, who translated the original Japanese text into English and Mrs. Dale Hilton, who made additional suggestions about the manuscript.
