In “The Secret Techniques of Bonsai,” the author, known for the ground-breaking “Bonsai With American Trees,” collaborates with his son to not only provide the fundamentals of crafting perfect bonsai but also share undisclosed methods developed through years of careful work and observation.
The Kawasumis offer detailed and easily understandable guidance on nurturing bonsai from seedlings or novice plants, providing expert advice on shaping, pruning, training, grafting, and repotting trees. They introduce innovative approaches to using tools. Despite the global renown of the Kawasumi family for their bonsai tool design, their instructions enable gardeners to adapt with other readily accessible bonsai, gardening, or basic workshop tools. The text is accompanied by step-by-step photographs, many presented in vibrant full-colour.
Masakuni Kawasumi III, Japan’s first certified tree doctor for bonsai, contributes his unique insights, making this a valuable resource for both beginners and experienced enthusiasts.
