Japanese gardening and bonsai are precise disciplines in which natural and manmade elements are formed for visual and symbolic effect.

It also contains a fascinating guide to bonsai, the growth of trees and shrubs in miniature. A gallery with gorgeous examples of over 40 mature bonsai specimens shows what is possible, and a directory lists suitable species for indoor and outdoor use.
