A bit of information from the art of Bonsai 🌳🌴 | by @arshani

Hello My Friends 😍,

I believe that all of you are happily spending your free time in your garden. Today I am going to share with you about the art of Bonsai. The few Bonsai trees in the gallery of my mobile phone brought that idea to my mind. In this article I hope to share the little knowledge I have with you. I hope you will find it useful.

The price of a bonsai tree is incalculable. Chinese ascetics brought this art to the world. They mostly hoped for meditation. It is a wonderful art of setting the mind on one purpose. Plants that look thousands of years old are made using this art.

The names of some types of plants that can be Bonsai can be named as follows. Bonsai trees can be created by using parts of plants such as Itipan Nuga, Gagaverella, Panda Ficus Golden Ficus, Aththikka, Box Wood, Milk Banyan, Pinus, Ahatu. In this article, I hope to briefly explain some of the basics that a person preparing to grow a Bonsai tree should know. When making a bonsai tree, it can change the way its branches move, i.e. the way the plant grows, as needed. In the bonsai method, a plant can be made using a certain method even by grafting the root.

Also, water should be applied only to the required extent at the right time, cutting of branches and shoots should be done. Often this makes an ancient tree less time-consuming, so it can be planted and cared for in a flat tray. It greatly affects the survival of the plant. The roots of a bonsai tree are usually soiled so that they are visible on the surface. I see that as another characteristic of the Bonsai trees.

We can determine how the branches of a Bonsai tree will spread. Of course, I meant by that a trick used here is to bend the branches in the direction of the branches from the ground along the wire. Also, it is better to cut the branches when the leaves are ripe during the rainy season. If you want to successfully grow a plant using the bonsai method, you need to know a few more things.

Do you know? Even the ancient trees that grow near the top of the big mountains can be planted in the bonsai way, even in such a way that they appear bent down from the mountain. You can make a bonsai plant by attaching it to a stone, twisting the roots and taking it out of the ground and planting it in a pot or tray.

Another thing to know about the art of bonsai is the medium of soil used for it. Here, sand,river sand, fertile surface soil, red soil or gravel, compost (dung, straw, chicken manure and cow urine) and small pieces of stone are required. Also, many people use it to spread moss on the surface of the soil to make it look more colorful. In a tray with a height of about two trenches, the types of soil mentioned above are taken equally in the ratio of 1:1, mixed and sieved. The soil that has been washed away is used for it. The bottom of the pot where the bonsai plant is planted is spread with small pieces of stone and then a small net is placed in the pot and the soil is added to the pot. When the bonsai plant is arranged in such a way that the water flows down, it does not remain as mud on the soil. It is another thing that we need to know when planting a Bonsai tree.

When choosing a plant for bonsai, you should select a tree that is not too tall. Also, it can be adjusted by placing small stones so that it stands upright when planted. As I mentioned earlier, the plant should be placed on the soil in the pot by adding soil so that the roots are not covered. Then, when watering the tree, only the required amount of water should be applied, so water should be applied to the plant with the help of a spray bottle. When cutting the moss, it should protect the roots of the tree. Instead of moss, stones that add beauty like white stone, Tiruvana stone can be placed.

For the growth of the bonsai plant, the plant can grow fertile by applying liquid fertilizer with more nitrogen once every two weeks. Also, liquid fertilizers such as phosphorus and potassium can be used during the flowering period of the tree. If the Bonsai tree is damaged for any reason, it can be cured by using a fungicide or natural insecticide. One of the most essential elements for Bonsai tree is morning sunlight. A Bonsai tree needs sunlight to grow successfully.

In addition to the above points, when pruning the branches of a bonsai tree, the top branches should be cut high and the surrounding branches should be cut in the shape of a cone. We can gather many more experiences while studying the tree. We can bend the branches of the tree in different ways as we want and cut them into different shapes through this method.

I hope you can gather many facts about Bonsai trees from this article. I conclude this article with the hope that you will come back soon with another article. Have a wonderful day! 🥳♥️
