Bonsai (literally "tray gardening") is the art of aesthetic miniaturisation of trees and plants in containers.
Japanese bonsai is derived from the Chinese artform, and was introduced to Japan by imperial embassies in the Chinese Tang Dynasty (the C7th–9th).
The Japanese aesthetic is centred on the principle of "heaven and earth in one container". Three forces come together in a good bonsai: shin-zen-bi (įåįž) or "truth", "essence" and "beauty".
From next year, we would like to show you how to create your very own true, modern Bonsai. It will light up any home or garden!
So please check back in 2007!
