Bonsai can be divided into water bonsai and stump bonsai. Water bonsai is dominated by stones, with moss, boats, bridges, pavilions and pavilions; Stump bonsai is dominated by trees.
Making landscape bonsai is divided into three steps: material selection, processing and layout. First, choose the right rock. China has a vast territory, rich resources and a wide variety of rocks. Generally speaking, it can be divided into two categories: turquoise and hard rock. Turquoise is easy to absorb water and grow moss, which can make a variety of plants grow well and is easy to carve. Hard rock is hard and difficult to process, but its natural shape and texture are good, which is conducive to preservation. Secondly, the processing of rocks. There are three steps in processing: sawing, carving and gluing. The shape and texture of turquoise can be cut into flat heads and sharp points, with sharp holes and flat grooves. After sawing, if the shape is not perfect, it needs to be glued. When gluing, first spread paper on the bottom of the basin, and then glue the stone with cement according to the design requirements. It is easy to process rocks, but the final layout is difficult. The creation of scenery in the basin should be distinctive, avoid dullness, be orderly and conform to nature. The artistic principle should be "one grass and one tree". It is required to choose embellishment, the scenery should be mixed with reality, dense and dense, trees and grass should be planted on the stone, and the moss should be moist. If boats, bridges, pavilions and pavilions are properly covered, they can play the role of finishing touch. Plants with small branches and leaves, such as Pinus pentaphylla, Pinus thunbergii and Podocarpus microphylla, should be planted on the stone, and the landscape posture on the mountain should be different from that on the mountain.
There are many forms of stump bonsai, which everyone likes. To make a stump bonsai, we should choose the modeling treatment of trees in the tree bonsai, which is small in branches and leaves, easy to grow in pots, strong in germination and slow in growth. It can be processed according to the ancient and famous trees in nature, which originate from nature and are higher than nature. The simplest method in trees modeling is to bind the trees with lead wires, such as rough binding and fine cutting combined with pruning, which can give the trees a perfect shape. With a few stones under the tree, it is more poetic.
Landscape bonsai, shifting the sky and shrinking the land, sees the big from the small, so it should be carefully scrutinized when making and achieved through artistic means. Beginners can learn the processing technology according to good works, master the structure of landscape bonsai, and then observe the characteristics of natural landscapes, so as to be confident and handy. Bonsai must be carefully protected after it is formed. There are three ways to protect it. First, landscape bonsai should be placed in a semi-cloudy and semi-sunny place in summer and in a sunny room in winter. Stump bonsai should be placed reasonably according to the trees planted. The second is watering. Watering is very important. Ignoring this, it is easy to let bonsai die, and all previous efforts are in vain. Third, pruning is the key to maintaining a certain posture. Different tree species have different pruning methods in different seasons. Stone-sized bonsai can make people appreciate the natural scenery. There are several pots of indoor furnishings at home, which are full of fun. Planting them in your spare time can improve your artistic accomplishment and adjust your spirit. This is really "shrinking the dragon into an inch, thousands of miles away, a silent poem, a three-dimensional painting."
