Peter Chan’s classic 1993 hardcover Bonsai: The Art of Growing and Keeping Miniature Trees is a beautifully illustrated guide that walks hobbyists through every stage of creating living sculpture. Clear step-by-step photos and concise captions demystify pruning, wiring, potting and long-term care for both indoor and outdoor specimens.

The book balances technical know-how with artistic insight, making it equally useful for first-timers potting a starter juniper and seasoned growers refining canopy shape on a centuries-old maple. Chan’s straightforward style keeps horticultural terms accessible while still serving as a reliable quick-reference for soil mixes, pests and seasonal routines.

This gently used copy is clean, tight and unmarked—no dog-eared pages, no smoke odors—though the index has a small surface tear that never touches text or photos. A sturdy, presentable volume ready for the workbench or the coffee table.

An affordable entry point into the calming world of bonsai cultivation, this edition fits neatly into any gardening, art or nature collection and ships fast from a smoke-free home.
