How to Navigate
If this is your first time on Bonsai Prelude, Welcome! Thank you for taking an interest in my humble opinions on bonsai. You'll find two types of posts primarily. The first are instructional posts that I wrote with the idea of covering the very basic ideas of bonsai. If you're just starting out learning bonsai I would suggest starting out with "The Art of Watering Bonsai" and moving chronologically forward in the "Bonsai Topics" category. The other material on this blog will be supplemental to a basic understanding of bonsai that you can examine as you please. Also note the "International Bonsai Library" post which is updated periodically to highlight those people that are making big moves in the bonsai community. So please enjoy, and do not hesitate to ask if you have any questions! ~Dylan-
