Welcome to the A to Z of Bonsai.
We are compiling a worldwide A to Z of Bonsai database. The A to Z is written collaboratively by the people who use it and we would like to encourage anyone reading this page to contribute to what has become the worlds greatest encyclopedia of bonsai terms. Entries when they are made will be added to an editable list which will be checked prior to publication. Photos and images of the bonsai term can be added and links made to relevant web pages.

BAILLIE - IAN -
Nearly forty years in making BONSAI>BONSAI>BONSAI pots which are currently included in collections in Britain, Europe, Japan and North AMErica and feature regularly in major exhibitions at home and abroad where they are used to compliment quality trees.
All pots are hand made and fired to stoneware temperature of 1260 degrees C so are frost proof. Ian's speciality is round pots thrown on the wheel but rectangles, cascades, slabs, crescents and freeform containers (and recently a new range of MAME and SHOHIN (SIZE) pots) are also made, all with a range of subtle glazes specifically developed for bonsai.
Pots can be purchased at BONSAI TRADERS ASSOCIATION events and British Shohin Association events. Orders can also be placed by phone or email. A Facebook page has been started and can be found below and on the Web Link button.

BARK - See : STERILIZED BARK

|
|
| |
|
BARK(TREE)>BARK (TREE) - Basically this is the outermost layer on the trunk and branches of trees.
The Inner Bark is alive while the Outer Bark (terMEd rhytidome) includes dead tissue along with some elements of the live inner bark.
See also CAMBIUM, XYLEM, and PHLOEM.

|
BARKBEETLE>BARK BEETLE - These are black or brown, cylindrically SHAPEd beetles which burrow under the bark and are particularly prevalent in CONIFERs.
FUNGUS developes in the tunnels and the holes of eMErging beetles appear. Bark may fall off and branches die.
Treatment involves removing and destroying infected branches, enriching the soil with phosphorous and POTASSIUM and spraying with lindane and PARATHION based INSECTICIDE in spring to kill beetles and at the end of winter to destroy larvae.

BARKBOUND>BARK BOUND - Applied to a tree whose growth has been stunted by drought or starvation, and whose bark as a result has becoME hard, thus inhibiting growth. The problem can be alleviated by slitting the bark vertically with a very sharp knife and growing the tree in open ground for at least one season.
|
|
|
|
|
| |
|
BARKCLEANER>BARK CLEANER - Keeping old bark in pristine condition is a perennial problem, especially in the U.Ks damp climate. Because of the damp weather and regular WATERING, bark, which is very absorbent tends to be the perfect place for green ALGAE to colonize.
After tiME this can become quite thick and if not cleaned away will progress to a lush carpet of green moss, under which the precious old bark will be decaying.
Bark Cleaner and Algae Remover solves this problem. The product harnesses the power of sunlight to lift algae away from the supporting surface, it then simply dries up and blows away.
Treatment involves spraying the affected area until it is evenly damp and putting it in the sun to take effect.

BARKSTRIPPER>BARK STRIPPER - As its naME suggests, used for stripping bark when creating SHARIs or other features.

BIOCHAR - Biochar is CHARCOAL which is being investigated for its properties in carbon capture and health improveMEnt in trees.
Investigations have shown that Biochar applied in the soil around Ash trees in the UK has "immunised" those Ash trees against Ash Dieback. Current thinking is that the trees are more than healthy enough to fight off disease and virus attacks.

In BONSAI>BONSAI>BONSAI liME sulphur is applied to deadwood to mimic the effect and also act as a preservative to the deadwood. When applied the LIME SULPHUR is yellow and smelly but it dries white and the smell disappears. The white then weathers to a more natural shade. (See also Lime Sulphur).

BONSAI>BONSAI>BONSAI Pot - An essential part of the overall bonsai image. Pots coME in all SHAPEs and sizes but part of the art is selecting the pot which does the tree justice.

BONSAI>BONSAI>BONSAI Soil - See Soil Mix.
Different tree types require different types of growing MEdium. Also different climates will also influence the soil mix with mixtures in wetter regions required to be freer draining than in drier areas.
Main components of any mix would be LOAM, sphagnum moss, PEAT, granite (or GRIT) and could also include any one of several GROWING MEDIUMs available as imports from Japan and the Far East (e.g. Akadama or PUMICE).
Bonsai growers are notorious for having their own recipe for the "best" mix which is developed through trial and error and the bonsai grapevine. The truth is plants do not need "soil" to grow well, modern hydroponics grow plants in nutrient rich water. Subtrates range from peat through to crushed granite lumps and really depends on your regime of fertilising and WATERING your bonsai.
There is an exCELLent article on the Kaizen Bonsai web site which you will find liked from the Web Link above.

BONSAI>BONSAI>BONSAI Tree Sizes - A bonsai can be any size as long as it is potted and has the appearance of a full-size speciMEn tree. Sizes of bonsai can range in height from no more than 2.5 cms (1 inch) up to about 2.2 meters (4 feet) although, in reality, there is no prescribed limit.
There are 4 general CLASSIFICATIONs (Large, medium, small, tiny) and each of these size classifications are split into several sub-sizes. However, not all sources agree on the exact sizes and names of the individual size categories, so you will find many variances in published sources and on the web. Below is a sample but be prepared to come aCROSS other variants.
Large Size Bonsai (DAI>DAI or DaiZA)
Sub-classification : IMPERIAL - Up to 200cms, BONJU - 100cm to 150cm tall, OMONO 80-120cms tall.
Medium Size (KIFU)
Sub-classification : Chu/CHUHIN - medium to large, 40 to 60 cms tal, l KATADE-MOCHI, up to 40cms
Small Bonsai (Shohin)
Sub-classification : Myabi - 15 to 25cms. GAFU - 13 to 20cm KOMONO - up to 18cm
Tiny Bonsai
