What tree species is used to make literati tree bonsai?

The creation of bonsai is different from building a house

To build a house, the drawings can be constructed according to the drawings after they are designed, and there will generally be no major adjustments.

The creation of bonsai will not be like building a house, the trees are constantly growing and changing, and the creator's feelings will also change, and sometimes "the plan is not as good as the change".

But the most important thing is to leave enough space for the trees to grow, follow the natural state of the trees, combined with the creator's feelings, and constantly adjust the modeling plan.

In any case, before starting to create a literati tree bonsai work, the author generally needs to have a preliminary idea.

In this article, we will continue to share bonsai production cases, focusing on how to conceive the form of bonsai, and how to choose, control and adjust in the growth process of trees.

Year 1. The material for "Tianzi" was obtained by the author ten years ago.

At this time, the author didn't have any special ideas, just went with the flow, did a little branch climbing, and the initial plan was to cultivate it into a large tree-shaped bonsai.

At the beginning of spring, the director invites you to pick back unique bonsai from the countryside without spending money.

The first series: The director's secret teaches you to make your own ultra-thin and durable cement flower pots, which are lighter than porcelain flower pots!

Year 3

Once again, I feel that its form seems to be more suitable for the creation of literati trees.

So, after looking back and forth over and over, the author chose the front of the tree.

Next, the main trunk is bent, and the branches are slightly bent and drooped to express the natural posture of the ancient cypress.

Sixth year

The branches and foliage of this bonsai tree have become fuller and the trunk has become thicker.

I thought to myself, it's time to start styling......

Seventh year

In order to show the age of the trees, the author appropriately peeled the lower part of the main trunk and carved out the relics.

At the same time, the trees were thinned and the work initially showed the style of a literati tree.

Three household things, the director teaches you the eight-step method of "high-pressure" seedlings, but you can watch the flowers and eat the fruits in the year.

A pair of scissors to plant sweet potatoes, eating fruits and eating leaves is nothing, and it's strange to see sweet potatoes bloom!

Tenth year

Next, it was cured for another three years.

At this time, it has been ten years, and the bonsai "Tianzi" work is almost mature. The main trunk is slightly curved and sloping, and the tree shape is natural, casual and chic.

Although the cultivation of the "year" is not enough, the natural posture of the cypress tree has come to the fore.

The creative process of Tianzi is actually a relatively casual process, with no deliberate design, let alone a certain program, but on the basis of fully respecting the natural state, it integrates the author's ideas.

Interested Taiwanese friends, do not put the collection of cases, encounter suitable bonsai materials, try it yourself.

If you encounter any problems in the bonsai process, the old way, come to the director, wahaha......

If Taiwanese friends can find it, it is a kind of trust.

The director shoulders the trust and moves forward, and he will live up to it!

planted on the balcony.

Okay, that's all for today, if you still have any questions, I hope the director, leave a message in the message area below. I very much hope to get feedback from Taiwanese friends, and the director will work hard, reply to you one-on-one, and solve your worries one-on-one.

There is no limit to the species of literati trees, but conifers and small-leaved miscellaneous trees are the main ones, such as five-needle pine, cypress, black pine, elm, June snow, and finch plum bamboo, which are all good choices.

The literati is the code name of Qinggao, so the literati in bonsai is the realm that I exclusively enjoy on the Gufeng Ridge.

The literati tree is characterized by being tall, thin, chic, concise, no matter what kind of stone, I think it is enough to match a stone, and the shape of the stone is slender and long, so that it looks natural and harmonious, and has charm.
