Bonsai (盆栽, lit. plantings in tray, from bon, a tray or low-sided pot and sai, a planting or plantings, pronunciation ) is a Japanese art form using miniature trees grown in containers. Similar practices exist in other cultures, including the Chinese tradition of penjing from which the art originated, and the miniature living landscapes of Vietnamese hòn non bộ. The Japanese tradition dates back over a thousand years, and has its own aesthetics and terminology.
"Bonsai" is a Japanese pronunciation of the earlier Chinese term penzai. A "bon" is a tray-like pot typically used in bonsai culture. The word bonsai is often used in English as an umbrella term for all miniature trees in containers or pots. This article focuses on bonsai as defined in the Japanese tradition.
The purposes of bonsai are primarily contemplation (for the viewer) and the pleasant exercise of effort and ingenuity (for the grower). By contrast with other plant cultivation practices, bonsai is not intended for production of food, for medicine, or for creating landscapes. Instead, bonsai practice focuses on long-term cultivation and shaping of one or more small trees growing in a container.

How to create a maple (acer) bonsai tree in 20 mins by Peter Chan. Bonsai are now a part of our lives. Like oriental food, they are now taken for granted and most people are familiar with them. No longer are these tiny trees regarded as curiosities or botanical freaks, as they were a few decades ago. There was a time when they were available only at specialist centres, but now it is possible to buy bonsai in shopping malls and on the internet. These plants can also be found at garden centres and horticultural shows. Some Bonsai are relatively inexpensive, while others can be very costly. As with any commodity, the different styles and grades of bonsai are reflected in the price. You can buy a young, newly trained bonsai with very limited funds, or you can spend thousands on an exquisit...

Bonsai Trees That Will Change Everything You Thought You Knew About Bonsai Trees.

Ryan Neil has spent over a decade working to master the Japanese art of bonsai. As he shapes and forms these miniature trees, he describes how closely intertwined humans are with them. Filmmaker Ryan Bush captures Neil’s dedication to the art form and the responsibility he holds while practicing his craft. “If you don’t respect that life and death is a very real part of the creative process of bonsai … you don’t have anything in the end except for a big dead tree."

After many technical difficulties, I finally finished another one for you (My apologies for sound & video quality issues). We return to Larry's place, April 2016, to collect our tagged trees, only to find most of them in very poor health. Thankfully, the dogwood was prime for picking! This video highlights the many steps necessary to collect & pot a wild tree - yamadori. This Flowering Dogwood (Cornus florida) was one of the easiest I've ever collected, due to a very small root ball in heavy clay soil. Like, Share, and Subscribe! - There's plenty more to come!

Vs 1:
It really hurts to say this, yes it does.
But after a while sweet love just ain't enough.
So many settle for less just because.
Maybe I'm more in love with what it was.
But wat gets so confusing baby, You and Me.
It's been so much confusion lately.
You couldn't see that you were losing me.
Chorus:
Well, I'm alone now, but I ain't lonely.
I'm on my own now, but I ain't the only.
Honestly, I'm fine,
I'll take this time to concentrate on me.
And I got possibility to keep me company.
Vs.2:
Won't you just assume he doesn't care.
To internalize it all just isn't fair.
So I address the problem so that he's aware.
But I still feel all alone even when he's there.
Maybe we can fix it baby, I know we can.
If I make you miss it baby, Then maybe you'll understand.
Chorus
