Taiwan is a mountainous island, with mountainous areas accounting for two thirds of the total area of the island. Taiwan has a wide variety of plant species, up to more than 4000 species, equivalent to 2/3 of European woody plant species. Among all kinds of tree species, there are more than 300 species with high economic value. The forest cover is 57.8%, so it is called the plant kingdom.

Its general characteristics are: compact leaf structure, green color, xylem rich in oil.

True cypress bonsai creation steps:
Step 1: Tree design.
First of all, after getting the material, you should have a creative idea, and use this idea to solve the problem of "how to do it in the future?" Why are you doing this?" The problem, and then draw the effect of tree design.
Step 2: Choose to stay.
Remove unwanted branches, leaving branches that may become relics and branches that must be preserved.
Step 3: Design the waterline.
Cypress is not the same as bonsai of other tree species. It is suitable for shaping the tree shape of high mountain image, that is, at high altitude, it has experienced vigorous image after strong wind and rain baptism. The Chinese character "Bai" is a combination of a "wood" character and a "white" character. Trees growing in harsh environments will definitely produce relics, and some white relics will appear from afar. So, our third move is to leave the waterline, creating a natural scene that experiences blizzard pressure.
Step 4: Silk carving.
Because Tian Pei materials have not experienced the suppression and experience of the natural environment, silk carving is the most commonly used method to create a sense of age through artificial means.
Step 5: Big branches, twigs and leaf mass arrangement.
This step cannot be accomplished overnight. It needs to go through preliminary modeling, and then the overall layout, including the proportion of leaf clusters and the shaping of gorgeous feeling, is completed in the subsequent creation.
Notes in the creative process:
1. Proportion of branches:
The proportion of branches and stems of some materials takes 2 to 3 years.
2. Leaf maturity:
Cypress has just been on the pot not long ago, the leaves will be long, there is no sense of old state, need to experience time to wait for its maturity.
3. Relic:
It takes some time to weather and become more authentic and closer to nature.
4. Waterline:

5. Pasta:
When the material has a certain maturity, match it with a better pot.
