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.

EDA>EDA>YAGOEDA - Branch growing from the bottom of the tree. The sprout (ME>YAGOME) comes first but when it becomes a branch (yagoeda), it takes all the nutrition and can kill the other new growing branches on the tree so should be removed from your BONSAI>BONSAI>BONSAI tree.
