Bonsai are miniature trees grown in pots. The aim of bonsai culture is to develop a tiny tree that has all theelements of a large tree growing in a natural setting. This look is achieved, principally, by branch and rootpruning and shaping, but other factors are also important. The texture of the trunk, its look of age, the mossand the under plantings in the container — all contribute to the illusion of a miniature tree as it is seen innature.A presentable bonsai can be created in a few seasons. Cultivating these miniature potted trees is both anintriguing hobby, and a means of adapting a wide range of plants to specialized and decorative uses. Bonsairequire daily watering during their growing season, and, because the plants are rooted in shallow pots,careful pruning.Bonsai are kept outdoors most of the year, but — from time to time — these miniaturized versions of natureare brought indoors for display. Only certain tropical trees, shrubs, and vines can be continually kept indoorsfull time as bonsai.Bonsai, as an art form, stems from ancient oriental culture. It originated in China and was developed by theJapanese. In the 13th century, the Japanese collected and potted wild trees that had been dwarfed by nature.These naturally formed miniatures were the first bonsai.
