Project Green: The Art of Bonsai

John Clemens, member of Eastern Iowa Bonsai Association, presents on the shape, harmony and proportion of bonsai to express art in the form of these beautiful long-lived trees. Bonsai (pronounced bone-sigh) literally means a tree in a small pot that has been pruned and trained. The horticultural art form dates back thousands of years in Asian history. Bonsai is the “new” interest to gardeners everywhere.
