Reviews"The book is loaded with beautiful photographs throughout, adding visual detail to the written words, which is important as viewing bonsai is about the aesthetic experience, while growing them is another experience altogether..." -- Castle View Academy blog, This is the type of project I like to start during the winter months, when I'm longing to be in the garden, despite the frozen earth. If you enjoy quiet, small-size garden projects, this could be your new mini thing. -- Empress of Dirt blog , As if bonsai gardening didn't already render the likes of cedar, maple, pine, and cherry trees into infinitely smaller versions, here super-mini bonsai reduces them to a size best suited for thimble-size 'pots' ... But it's certainly an excellent introduction to the practice and deserves a spot on a shelf with conventional bonsai-gardening books. -- Booklist , "Everything you could possibly need to know to create your own super-mini bonsai is laid out before you; all that has to be done is follow Iwai's instructions. Each section is clear, readable material that is easy to follow ... the perfect tool for anyone looking for fun, simple, easy-to-follow ways to create super-mini bonsai of their own." -- Washington Gardener magazine, Maybe actual bonsai isn't your speed.
