Very informative on some of the best trees/shrubs to use in creating Bonsai and how to care for them. Peter Chan is a Bonsai master and this book is a great lesson on how to get started.

For a low price, you receive a small factor handy book, with useful overall informations - general instructions in bonsai knowledge and techniques - more that 100 different trees species exposed on double-page with story and care informations - hundreds of pictures to illustrate all of that (per tree, on full tree example and one detail pic each) To have in your pocket ! I discovered Peter Chan through Heron's Bonsai youtube channel - a master on realistic Bonsai passion

I have followed Peter Chan's YT channel for some time and appreciate his expert but un-intimidating teaching style. With this compact little book I have all the info at my fingertips. It starts with all the basics of pruning and shaping (total newbie here) The info is very well organized and consistent for all plant types, many clear photos on strong water-resistant paper (I'll take it to my greenhouse). I'm super thrilled.

Very nice book filled with a multitude of pictures, haven't read the whole book but flicked through managing to find bits I wanted fairly quickly so a good overall book for beginners but also competent bonsai keepers. Apart from the pictures, there is a lot of good advice, well laid out, and easy to understand even for a complete novice. The only thing that could be improved is the size, the book is rather small, a little bigger than pocket size I would say, so the text is quite small but nonetheless a very good informative book.
