PERFECT PRUNING TO RELAX YOUR MIND

The ancient art of bonsai trees originated in Ancient Egypt in about 4000 BC and we know this due to pictorial evidence that is still around today! However, it was in Japan where the art of bonsai pruning became popular as the Japanese (taking inspiration from the Chinese) decorated their home with mixture trees. This formed the main origin of bonsai pruning. Probably the most famous bonsai tree to date is the Sandai-Shogun-No Matsu. This tree is over 500 years old and it is still going strong today!

There are a huge amount of varieties of bonsai trees, varying from the formal upright style to the cascade style. All have a slightly different visual aesthetic and represent different ideas! For example the Growing in a Rock variety is supposed to represent a struggling tree that has to work to survive.
