Glenn Hilton, president of the Bonsai Society of Miami, co-owner of Miami Bonsai Specialist, and horticulture specialist presents BONSAI: The Art of Growing and Keeping Miniature Trees.
January's focus is juniper trained in the cascade/semi-cascade style.
The cascade style is an ancient Chinese design, which derives its inspiration from trees growing out of cliff faces and crevices in rocks. Glenn will teach you the history, guidelines, and techniques of bonsai and how to start your own bonsai tree.
We recommend you sign up for upcoming programs to learn about different styles of bonsai and get additional hands-on experience working on trees.
