Review: Ortho's "All About Bonsai"

A very good book for anyone with an interest in cultivating bonsai. This book's no non-sense appoach coupled with its "readability" make it a great choice!

Helped my skills grow as well as my trees....

Of several of the bonsai books I have purchased, this is excellent. Photography is wonderful, line drawings and instructions are excellent. The text is excellent and good reading instruction for novice to more skilled bonsai grower.

Learn Bonsai Techniques

"This book shows step-by-step growing and training techniques, how to choose bonsai styles and tools, and it provides a comprehensive guide to plant selection. 'Learn the secrets of pruning, shaping, watering, and care requirements to ensure success with your miniature landscape in a pot.'" (summary by South Texas Library System) These miniature landscapes have always fascinated me. They are a work of art. In the plant gallery, it shows 55 species of trees, shrubs, and woody plants suitable for bonsai use.
