A Brief History of Bonsai
A lot of people will know about this type of plant style.
But we still don't know where is this original style come from.
To day topic will discus about where they from..
The first form of bonsai appeared in China
over a thousand years ago, where it began as
the practice of growing single specimen trees
in pots. These earliest bonsai were naturally
dwarfed trees that were collected from
nature, potted and trained as bonsai.

The Japanese began practicing bonsai
sometime during the historical Heian period
(794-1185), adopting the art from Chinese
culture and refining it to a level of sophistication
that had not yet been seen. For the
Japanese, bonsai came to represent a
philosophy of harmony between humans,
the soul and nature.

By the late 1800s, Japan had opened its
boundaries to the rest of the world, and the
miniature trees in containers were highly
sought after by enthusiastic collectors outside
of Japan. Bonsai exhibits at late 19th- and
early 20th-century world’s fairs in Europe
and the United States also contributed to
creating interest in the West.

Today the art of bonsai is a well-known
and respected horticultural art form that is
practiced worldwide.
