Flowering Bonsai.

 Bonsai is the Japanese art of growing miniature replicas of real trees in containers, requiring specialized pruning, root shaping, and branch shaping to create a realistic image of a tree in nature. Originally developed in China as penjing, it was perfected in Japan and symbolizes harmony and longevity. Its essence is the creation of a living work of art that imitates a mature tree. Many trees are suitable for bonsai: conifers, deciduous trees, fruit trees, as well as arborvitae, ficus, and portulacaria.

 Basic principles of creation

Growth regulation: Pruning, pinching, and root restriction are used.

Shaping: Bending and shaping branches to accelerate "aging" and create the appearance of a century-old tree.

Plant selection: Trees with small leaves, flexible trunks, and the ability to regenerate (e.g., ficus, maple, and pine) are suitable.
