Bonsai Heresy

by Michael Hagedorn

This is the book for which I have been waiting for all my bonsai life. —Paul K.

Michael Hagedorn has long been our go-to source for accurate and clear advice when it comes to bonsai and bonsai related questions. His skill and depth of knowledge, as well as his on-going innovation in the art of bonsai, place him among the very best of our North American bonsai artists, teachers and, needless to say, authors.

The Little Book of Bonsai

by Jonas Dupuich

Finally, the beginner's bonsai book you've been waiting for. Jonas Dupuich is one of North America's most highly accomplished bonsai artists, teachers and writers. In our opinion intermediate students can learn from this great little book as well as beginners. It's that good and the quality of the bonsai Jonas uses is pure inspiration.

Here's what Michael Hagedorn (author of Post-Dated and Bonsai Heresy) wrote..."We have waited a long time for a concise introductory bonsai book written by an expert, and we finally have it. Dupuich's book has the earmark of a classic"

And here's Bill Valavanis... "This well written and beautifully illustrated book covers bonsai care along with authoritative information for creating you own bonsai. Highly recommended for beginners"

Foundations of Bonsai 

by Harry Harrington

There are at least two things that make Harry Harrington a unique force in our world bonsai community. First, is what Harry does with inexpensive, undeveloped and sometimes unattractive material. Most quality bonsai starts with quality (usually expensive) stock. Harry starts with whatever he can find (or what people sometimes bring him). If you're like most of us, you can learn a lot from this approach. And you can save some money. Second is Harry's combination of horticultural and bonsai knowledge, coupled with his willingness to experiment and to teach what he learns along the way. We can all benefit from Harry evolution as a bonsai grower and artist of considerable dedication and skill

Literati Style Penjing

by Zhao Qingquan

This beautiful book is one of our favorites. Zhao Qingquan is one of the world's most renowned Penjing masters and when you see this book you'll know why. It has everything you want to know about the Literati style Penjing and and offers inspiration that will motivate you to try your hand at creating dramatic Penjing plantings of your own.

Penjing is sometimes referred to as Chinese bonsai, though you might just as easily refer to bonsai as Japanese Penjing (after all, bonsai originated in China). It's an ancient art form that emphasizes simplicity, naturalness, profundity and subtlety.

Forest, Rock Planting & Ezo Spruce Bonsai

“I tried to find the book for some time. I am very glad to have got it. It is all that I expected and more. And everything went smoothly, although it was an international delivery.”             —George U, 5 Stars

“I love the pictures & drawings shared in "Forest, Rock Planting & Ezo  Spruce Bonsai" by Saburo Kato. A variety of "Styles" that engage my heart, mind and soul as a Novice with Bonsai tree(s). The color photos are frameable and truly breath taking. Such a modest investment in what turned out to be a "GOLD NUGGETT" in "mystical" styles of Bonsai tree(s). Excellent learning guide to enhance one's artistic creativity. Thank You Mr. Kato…” —David G, 5 Stars
