Bonsai show at Bhopal

Bonsai Club, Bhopal had organized 15th Bonsai exhibition on November 13 and 14 at Bhopal. This also marked its 20th foundation day. Apart from new varieties of Bonsai trees in their different moods, Saikei Landscape and Mini Forest , was displayed. Bonsai (pronounced bone-sigh) is an ancient oriental horticultural art form. The word Bonsai literally means (in Chinese & Japanese language) 'tree-in- a-pot'. Contrary to popular felt bonsai is not the art of stunting a tree's growth. Bonsai can be grown from seeds, cuttings or young trees. They are kept small by pruning branches and roots, repotting periodically, pinching off new growth and wiring the branches and trunk so that they grow into the desired shape.
