The types of cliff bonsai and matters needing attention in production

There are mainly five-needle pine, black pine, Jiuli incense, hammer elm, sparrow plum, small leaf yellow poplar and other tree species, which can be divided into three types: semi-suspended type, full-hanging type and upside-down type bonsai. Next, the editor will talk about the main points of these three kinds of cliff-style bonsai and the matters needing attention when making them. Interested friends can also try this new pot technology.

I. the main points of the types of cliff bonsai

(1) semi-suspended bonsai

Semi-suspended bonsai means that the whole tree is out of the basin, but the tree is not lower than the basin, or the trunk is horizontal, or the first branch is thicker and longer because the trunk is shorter, thus gaining momentum in the air.

(2) full suspension bonsai

A full-hanging bonsai is a full-hanging bonsai in which the whole tree goes out of the basin and extends downwards and branches horizontally as shown in the picture.

Full suspension bonsai picture:

(3) inverted bonsai

Inverted bonsai means that the whole tree is out of the basin, the exposed trunk is hung upside down vertically, and the branches are still horizontal.

III. Classification of cliff-type bonsai

Cliff type bonsai is divided into big cliff type bonsai and small cliff type bonsai. Cliff type bonsai is generally used in barrel basin. The overhanging crown of large cliff type bonsai exceeds the bottom of dry tube basin, while the overhanging crown of small cliff type bonsai does not exceed the bottom of the basin, and the bonsai is generally no less than 3 canister 4 of dry tube basin. When making, the length from the base of tree root to the first side branch is not less than 25cm, and wrap it with adhesive tape after longitudinal and horizontal cross operation. Wire is wound into a 45-degree fastening to make it bend and droop.

2. matters needing attention in the production of cliff-style bonsai

The main results are as follows: (1) the base of the cliff-type tree stump bonsai is generally vertical, tilting from the middle and lower part to one side, the trunk downward, and the adjacent tip swirling upward, showing the trend of Qiu long inverted, giving people a sense of vitality.

(2) the cliff-type tree stump bonsai emphasizes the lifting of roots. Lifting root can not only show its old tree state, but also alleviate the momentum of bonsai, resulting in visual balance.

(3) the basin of cliff-type tree stump bonsai should be used in medium-deep basin, and should be placed on several shelves with high feet, so as to show the elegance of pile scenery.

Bonsai form and its modeling points (above) Click on the bonsai micro-world below the title, one click to pay attention to the trees in the nature of this account. Due to the different growth environment of the plants, the posture of the trees varies greatly, which is reflected in the more colorful forms of bonsai trees. From the point of view of the modeling of bonsai trees, we summarize and merge similar or similar bonsai forms, and then take the changes of the trunk of trees and the number of trees as the main basis for classification. (1) straight-dried bonsai trees have only one trunk, and the trunk posture is basically upright or slightly curved, that is, the so-called straight bonsai trees are called straight-stem trees. Straight-dry bonsai trees require that the best performance of the roots must be thick roots stretching in all directions, so that the trees appear solemn and stable and have the momentum of standing. The branches extend in all directions, with rich layers and powerful branches. Branches should be at the height of about 1 / 3 or 2 / 3 of the trunk, not too many branches and leaves, so as not to block the trunk. Make the trunk more naked to show the upright and vigorous of the potted tree. The flowerpot should be shallow, and the planting position depends on the shape of the tree. pay attention to an asymmetric balance between the tree and the pot. For example, if the crown is an isosceles triangle, the planting position should be in the middle and behind; if the crown is slightly unequilateral triangle, the planting position should be slightly on the short side of the triangle. Straight-dry bonsai trees should be made into towering "straight" picture works, and the branches should be short. The tree species suitable for the performance of straight-dry works are black pine, five-needle pine, gold pine, metasequoia, ginkgo, elm and so on. Most of this kind of material is taken from the nursery of the forest farm, and some are also dug from the mountains. (2) dry and curved bonsai trees require a certain degree of bending of the trunk, but not too much, one or two bends are enough. The song should avoid monotonous repetition, otherwise there will be traces of artificial creation. Qu is valuable in life, and the work lies in the changes in the trunk lines, which are both soft, firm and soft, and the lines are both smooth and graceful and tall and straight. Mountain-picked qu Gan material is unpredictable, vigorous and natural, very valuable, but there are also unsatisfactory line changes, we should pay attention to the choice. For the artificially cultivated kogan material, the trunk must be slightly inclined when planting, so that the root on the other side can be cultivated into a sturdy strong root and semi-exposed on the soil surface, and there is a feeling of smooth coordination between the direction of the root and the connection of the trunk. This is the most important ornamental part of qu Gan tree bonsai, which must be paid great attention to. For the part above the base of the trunk, it can be truncated by cutting, so that the trunk can choose another direction of development. In the future, the combination of cutting and binding can also be used to cultivate the trunk to meet the requirements of bonsai beauty. Cypress is the most typical material of dried bonsai. Other trees such as pines and some miscellaneous trees are also suitable for making dry bonsai. (3) the inclination of the trunk of trees in oblique dry nature is mostly caused by strong winds, landslides, landslides and other factors. Therefore, the change of the form of tree trunk tilt is also very complex, but there is one point, its trunk line is not a straight line, but a variety of "S"-shaped deformations. This tilting posture of the trunk in nature is reflected in the bonsai of trees, which we call the oblique dry style. The trunk of oblique dry bonsai material must have various deformations in the shape of "S". If the trunk tilts to the right, there should be thick roots on the left, and the trunk tip turns upward, which is like oblique dry bonsai material that has been tilted for many years. If the trunk is tilted and the trunk line is straight, it lacks charm and is not in line with the laws of nature. Because there is no day when there is no strong wind, and trees always have to continue to grow upward. The key point of making oblique dry tree bonsai is how to keep the tree potential without losing its center of gravity and achieve balance. The methods are as follows: to play the role of thick roots in the opposite direction, to play the role of branches in the opposite direction, and to give people a sense of support by falling the trunk with inclined branches in the same direction. In order to strengthen the tilt of the potted tree and make the composition active, it is appropriate to choose a circular shallow basin, a square shallow basin or a half-high round basin to let the inclined trunk or branches out of the basin. Pine and cypress trees and some miscellaneous trees are suitable for oblique dry bonsai. (4) Cliff style on the cliffs of nature, it is common for some trees to grow in various forms, but they are still luxuriant. The trees in this posture are reflected in the bonsai, collectively known as cliff style. Cliff type generally has semi-suspension type, full-suspension type and inverted hanging type and so on. Semi-suspended type: the whole bonsai tree comes out of the basin and comes out of the sky, but the tree is not lower than the potted surface. It may be horizontal to the trunk, or it may be because the trunk is shorter and the first branch is thicker and longer, thus taking advantage of the air. Full suspension: the whole bonsai tree goes out of the basin and extends downwards and branches out of the basin. Inverted hanging type: the whole bonsai tree goes out of the basin, the exposed trunk hangs upside down vertically, and the branches are still horizontal. The production of cliff-type bonsai focuses on the selection of materials, which requires a certain bending change at the base of the trunk, so that the trunk or branches can be homeopathic horizontal or drooping. Although the cliff-style bonsai is lovely, it must be considered according to the conditions of the material, and the modeling principle of "adjusting measures to their aptitude" should be followed. Cliff bonsai used to be planted in flowerpots to set off the momentum caused by the fall of trees from high places. Now more than half-height type of square basin or round basin planting, exhibition layout and then use a few tall frames to create cliff momentum. Its advantage is that it can improve the cultivation and management of trees caused by the high dry tube is too deep; in the viewing, it can make the scene, basin and frame trinity, and show incisively and vividly, so as to make the picture transparent, coordinated and vivid. (5) the double-dry and double-dry bonsai appears in the form of a combination of two trees, which embodies the artistic beauty of modesty and coordination between the two trees, looking forward to echo, proper density, and the combination of reality and reality, thus showing the realm of both form and spirit of the works and the blending of feelings and scenes. The production of double-dry bonsai must pay attention to the following key points. The selection of two trees must be divided into primary and secondary. The main tree is taller and the secondary tree is smaller. The attitude is mainly the main tree, and the attitude change of the trunk of the secondary tree should be similar or close to that of the trunk of the main tree, in order to form a certain tacit understanding. If the posture of the trunk of the two trees is completely different, such as a song all the time, it will be difficult to produce the beauty of coordination and should be avoided. Two trees should be planted in front and back, not in parallel. Who is ahead and who is behind depends on the specific situation. When planting, the base of the trunk of the two trees should be close to each other, and the root of the tree should be basically the same, not from each other. The angle between the extension direction of the two trunks should not be too large, and it is generally ideal within 45 °. If it is too large, the trunk of the two trees may lose their mutual support and attention. The trade-off and adjustment of double-dry branches are more complex, so it is necessary to deal with the two trees as a unified whole in order to achieve overall balance and stability, virtual and real coordination, competition and order. [/ ol] the lower branches of the two trees should extend outward, and the thicker branches should be cut off between the two trunks to avoid the intersection of the coarse branches and the trunk. The branches between the double trunks should be filled by the front and rear branches to avoid going straight, which is the most natural. In addition, the branches of the main tree should be high, and the branches of the secondary tree can be slightly lower, so as to avoid the influence of the branches of the main tree on the growth of the secondary tree. Double-stem co-planting can also be two different tree species, but the best combination is still one tree species. The double-dry type is the co-planting of two trees, and it can also be merged into the form of a double-dry book, which is collectively called the double-dry type. Because from the modeling point of view, their trunk treatment and branch treatment are the same. A double-dry book may be originally one, but then divided into two due to the influence of external forces. The height, thickness, curvature and hidden changes of the two trunks are all in line with the performance requirements of bonsai art. Shuligan is also Tiancheng, with a little decaying decoration. The divine branch is indispensable, but it is artificial. The two waterlines are wide and grow on the outside of the stem, which is ideal. The crown is closely combined by two crowns, and its potential and two trunks are unified. The whole tree is suitable for movement and stillness, compact structure, and has the beauty of stability, calmness, unity and harmony.

(1) Direct dry type

Bonsai trees have only one trunk, and the trunk posture is basically upright or slightly curved, that is, the so-called straight in the meaning of qu are called straight type. Straight-dry bonsai trees require that the best performance of the roots must be thick roots stretching in all directions, so that the trees appear solemn and stable and have the momentum of standing. The branches extend in all directions, with rich layers and powerful branches. Branches should be at the height of about 1 / 3 or 2 / 3 of the trunk, not too many branches and leaves, so as not to block the trunk. Make the trunk more naked to show the upright and vigorous of the potted tree. The flowerpot should be shallow, and the planting position depends on the shape of the tree. pay attention to an asymmetric balance between the tree and the pot. For example, if the crown is an isosceles triangle, the planting position should be in the middle and behind; if the crown is slightly unequilateral triangle, the planting position should be slightly on the short side of the triangle.

Straight-dry bonsai trees should be made into towering "straight" picture works, and the branches should be short. The tree species suitable for the performance of straight-dry works are black pine, five-needle pine, gold pine, metasequoia, ginkgo, elm and so on. Most of this kind of material is taken from the nursery of the forest farm, and some are also dug from the mountains.

(2) qu Gan style

Dry bonsai trees require a certain degree of bending of the trunk, but not much, one or two bends are enough. The song should avoid monotonous repetition, otherwise there will be traces of artificial creation. Qu is valuable in life, and the work lies in the changes in the trunk lines, which are both soft, firm and soft, and the lines are both smooth and graceful and tall and straight.

Mountain-picked qu Gan material is unpredictable, vigorous and natural, very valuable, but there are also unsatisfactory line changes, we should pay attention to the choice. For the artificially cultivated kogan material, the trunk must be slightly inclined when planting, so that the root on the other side can be cultivated into a sturdy strong root and semi-exposed on the soil surface, and there is a feeling of smooth coordination between the direction of the root and the connection of the trunk. This is the most important ornamental part of Qugan type bonsai, which must be paid great attention to. For the part above the base of the trunk, it can be truncated by cutting, so that the trunk can choose another direction of development. In the future, the combination of cutting and binding can also be used to cultivate the trunk to meet the requirements of bonsai beauty.

Cypress is the most typical material of dried bonsai. Other trees such as pines and some miscellaneous trees are also suitable for making dry bonsai.

(3) oblique dry type

The inclination of the trunk of trees in nature is mostly caused by strong winds, landslides, landslides and other factors. Therefore, the change of the form of tree trunk tilt is also very complex, but there is one point, its trunk line is not a straight line, but a variety of "S"-shaped deformations. This tilting posture of the trunk in nature is reflected in the bonsai of trees, which we call the oblique dry style. The trunk of oblique dry bonsai material must have various deformations in the shape of "S". If the trunk tilts to the right, there should be thick roots on the left, and the trunk tip turns upward, which is like oblique dry bonsai material that has been tilted for many years. If the trunk is tilted and the trunk line is straight, it lacks charm and is not in line with the laws of nature. Because there is no day when there is no strong wind, and trees always have to continue to grow upward.

The key point of making oblique dry tree bonsai is how to keep the tree potential without losing its center of gravity and achieve balance. The methods are as follows: to play the role of thick roots in the opposite direction, to play the role of branches in the opposite direction, and to give people a sense of support by falling the trunk with inclined branches in the same direction.

In order to strengthen the tilt of the potted tree and make the composition active, it is appropriate to choose a circular shallow basin, a square shallow basin or a half-high round basin to let the inclined trunk or branches out of the basin.

Pine and cypress trees and some miscellaneous trees are suitable for oblique dry bonsai.

(4) Cliff style

On the cliffs of nature, it is common to see some trees growing in various forms, but they are still luxuriant. The trees in this posture are reflected in the bonsai, collectively known as cliff style.

Cliff type generally has semi-suspension type, full-suspension type and inverted hanging type and so on.

Semi-suspended type: the whole bonsai tree comes out of the basin and comes out of the sky, but the tree is not lower than the potted surface. It may be horizontal to the trunk, or it may be because the trunk is shorter and the first branch is thicker and longer, thus taking advantage of the air.

Full suspension: the whole bonsai tree goes out of the basin and extends downwards and branches out of the basin.

Inverted hanging type: the whole bonsai tree goes out of the basin, the exposed trunk hangs upside down vertically, and the branches are still horizontal.

The production of cliff-type bonsai focuses on the selection of materials, which requires a certain bending change at the base of the trunk, so that the trunk or branches can be homeopathic horizontal or drooping. Although the cliff-style bonsai is lovely, it must be considered according to the conditions of the material, and the modeling principle of "adjusting measures to their aptitude" should be followed.

Cliff bonsai used to be planted in flowerpots to set off the momentum caused by the fall of trees from high places. Now more than half-height type of square basin or round basin planting, exhibition layout and then use a few tall frames to create cliff momentum. Its advantage is that it can improve the cultivation and management of trees caused by the high dry tube is too deep; in the viewing, it can make the scene, basin and frame trinity, and show incisively and vividly, so as to make the picture transparent, coordinated and vivid.

(5) double dry type

The double-dry bonsai appears in the form of a combination of two trees, reflecting the artistic beauty of modesty and coordination between the two trees, looking forward to echo, proper density, and the combination of reality and reality, thus showing the realm of both form and spirit of the works and the blending of feelings and scenes.

The production of double-dry bonsai must pay attention to the following key points.

The selection of two trees must be divided into primary and secondary. The main tree is taller and the secondary tree is smaller.

The attitude is mainly the main tree, and the attitude change of the trunk of the secondary tree should be similar or close to that of the trunk of the main tree, in order to form a certain tacit understanding. If the posture of the trunk of the two trees is completely different, such as a song all the time, it will be difficult to produce the beauty of coordination and should be avoided.

Two trees should be planted in front and back, not in parallel. Who is ahead and who is behind depends on the specific situation. When planting, the base of the trunk of the two trees should be close to each other, and the root of the tree should be basically the same, not from each other. The angle between the extension direction of the two trunks should not be too large, and it is generally ideal within 45 °. If it is too large, the trunk of the two trees may lose their mutual support and attention.

The trade-off and adjustment of double-dry branches are more complex, so it is necessary to deal with the two trees as a unified whole in order to achieve overall balance and stability, virtual and real coordination, competition and order.

The lower branches of the two trees should be extended outward, and the thicker branches should be cut off between the two trunks to avoid the intersection of the coarse branches and the trunk. The branches between the double trunks should be filled by the front and rear branches to avoid going straight, which is the most natural.

In addition, the branches of the main tree should be high, and the branches of the secondary tree can be slightly lower, so as to avoid the influence of the branches of the main tree on the growth of the secondary tree.

Double-stem co-planting can also be two different tree species, but the best combination is still one tree species.

The double-dry type is the co-planting of two trees, and it can also be merged into the form of a double-dry book, which is collectively called the double-dry type. Because from the modeling point of view, their trunk treatment and branch treatment are the same. A double-dry book may be originally one, but then divided into two due to the influence of external forces. The height, thickness, curvature and hidden changes of the two trunks are all in line with the performance requirements of bonsai art. Shuligan is also Tiancheng, with a little decaying decoration. The divine branch is indispensable, but it is artificial. The two waterlines are wide and grow on the outside of the stem, which is ideal. The crown is closely combined by two crowns, and its potential and two trunks are unified. The whole tree is suitable for movement and stillness, compact structure, and has the beauty of stability, calmness, unity and harmony.
