Saikei embraces the esthetic traditions of bonsai but allows a greater freedom in composition. Its use of ordinary stones and seedlings makes it a perfect beginning point for the aspiring bonsai enthusiast, while the bonsai connoisseur can derive pleasure in organizing the young plants into saikei patterns while he is waiting for them to mature. Written by the bonsai expert who established the saikei school, this book provides the reader with his personal criteria of the esthetic elements necessary in a good saikei, as well as detailed instruction in planting skills. Compositions and techniques are thoroughly illustrated and accompanied by numbered diagrams, lists of materials, and step-by-step instructions that enable you to create the same beautiful miniature landscapes in your own home."; Oblong Small 8vo 7½" - 8" tall; 133 pages .

Sobre Dr. Bookman - All Books Tightly Packaged in Cardboard
We have an eclectic array of used and out of print books for you in our inventory. Service is key to our relationship with you. You get \"Old School\" service with Dr. Bookman. We can\'t look at each other in the eye, shake each others hand, or walk into the shop the next day if we\'re disatisfied. I understand that vulnerability. You are purchasing a product sight unseen. That means I must be honest with you about exactly what you are buying. You might find my descriptions more detailed than most others, but when purchasing online, I want you to know exactly what you\'re buying. I don\'t want you to feel surprised when you open the box. And by the way, almost all of our books are shipped in cardboard packaging designed just for books. That means you get it the way it left here.
