The latest method of making miniature rockery bonsai

Rockery bonsai is a kind of three-dimensional painting. Through the artistic processing of the author, the magical technique of moving the sky and shrinking the earth is carried out, and the natural beauty is reproduced in the form of mountains, plants and accessories. To create works of art that are higher than nature, it can be said to be the epitome of natural landscape. Let's take a look at the production method of small rockery bonsai.

Bonsai selection

In the production of miniature rockery bonsai, we must first choose a good basin. Bonsai pays great attention to the foil of basin and shelf. There are generally purple sand basin, disk, marble plate, stalactite "cloud plate", terrazzo plate and so on. Rock bonsai commonly used shallow plate is rectangular or waist round, there are four soles, the plate protruding outward and multi-angled, in order to enhance decoration, white or light blue, can show the water surface. At present, the white hard plastic shallow plate and white cement millstone plate on the market are sold at a low price and can also be selected. As for the several planes in the display basin, they can be used locally to create several planes with rich local characteristics.

Bonsai design

Before making miniature rockery bonsai, we must be confident of which kind of bonsai to make and which kind of bonsai shape must be determined, otherwise we will have no way to start. According to the idea, we will initially put the shape of the mountain in the sand table. Note: the height and size of the rockery should be coordinated with the size of the shallow basin.

Bonsai production

1. Glue the mountain body: first, adjust the cement mortar, pay attention to the glue should be adjusted with the use, and pay attention to the thinness of the glue.

2. Stone processing: the mountains that need to be glued are processed into textures and strange shapes with tools such as hammers, chisels and saws.

3. Bonding the mountain body: the two sides of the mountain and stone that need to be bonded are respectively coated with cement glue to make the mountain and rock match into a whole. When bonding, we should pay attention to make sure that the fracture trace can not be seen at the place where the rock is bonded, and pay attention to cleaning up the excess glue at the bonding place.

Bonsai maintenance

1. The rockery bonsai can not be touched immediately after the production is completed. Only after two or three days of water spray maintenance, the mountain will be basically solid.

2. The flowers and plants arranged in the rockery bonsai are young and delicate. Due to the lack of water storage in the soil, they can not stand the strong sun exposure and can only see the appropriate sunlight. At the same time, exposure will make the furnishings on the bonsai lose its color, peel off and break, making the whole bonsai lose its ornamental value. Therefore, shading should be strengthened at ordinary times, especially in the middle of summer, otherwise it will lead to poor growth of flowers and trees, shrinkage and dry moss on the soil surface.

3. The outdoor management of rockery bonsai should prevent rainstorm erosion, and don't be too fierce when watering, otherwise it will wash away the basin mud and affect the plant growth. Rockery bonsai water supply, it is best to use water spraying or immersion method, which is not only conducive to the growth of plants, flowers and moss, but also wash away the dust on the surface of the rocks, so as to keep the whole rocks fresh and green and full of vitality.

Conclusion: miniature rockery bonsai can store water, sometimes decorated with pavilions, pontoon bridges, characters, animals and other non-components, but also can be often equipped with trees or small plants, after artistic processing, the beauty of mountains and rivers can be condensed and reproduced in the basin. At the same time, rockery is the main body of rock bonsai, and only by completing the production of rockery can we combine it into a complete bonsai.
