Bonsai : The Miniature Living Trees

Bonsai is the art of growing ordinary plants, trees, shrubs, vines, etc., in shallow pots and can be practiced by anyone with a little time and a modicum of common aesthetic sense. The fascination of bonsai is capturing the imagination of every one these days. It has gained immense popularity and is eminently suitable for today’s lifestyle. It is a boon to city dwellers like us who yearn for some greenery but do not have the space to grow trees.

After all, one needs a lot of space to grow trees in the ground and with property rates at such a high premium, very few of us have our own garden at our own dwellings in the high-rise apartment blocks in our cities or can afford the luxury of a farm house or what is popularly known today as a weekend home. In fact, even balcony space is becoming a thing of the past and only a fortunate few have a terrace attached to their house.
