The production and Landscape making of Su School Bonsai

Su style bonsai is composed of five parts: the first is the root, the second is the stem, the third is the node, the fourth is the new branch, the fifth is the top. As long as the five parts are processed and shaped separately, they can become a fresh work of art.

1. Tigen

According to the distribution of the root, the root system is raised on the soil surface and placed in the four directions. Panqu anger starts from the basin surface, and the plate root is also better exposed on the soil surface, which can be positive, oblique and lie down. "the head should be slanted, and the foot should be lined up", so that it can reach "hanging roots and showing claws". To show the ancient. Root lifting should be carried out gradually year by year, and should not be mentioned too much at one time, so as not to damage the roots and affect the growth. If the root is thin, do not put forward the soil surface, otherwise the wind and rain for a long time, the sun will all die after freezing. You can continue to cultivate and raise roots, and it is not too late to raise roots after a certain degree of coarseness. If the bonsai has no thick roots, it cannot be exposed to the soil.

2. Take the bend

Generally speaking, most of the trees are upright, and they need to be climbed into several bends and fixed. This is called "taking bends". There is a rule to take a bend, that is, there is a straight in the bend, and the top root is opposite to each other. It means that the center of gravity of the plant should not go beyond the basin to maintain stability and facilitate growth (except for special formats). Don't take the corner too prominently or too beside the point. Take the first bend, called "seat bottom bend", also known as "unearthed bend", the bend can be left, right, backward, but should not bend forward, this is also a basic knowledge.

3. Donton Festival

There are usually two things that happen during the Dayton Festival. First, after taking the bend on the pot, the branches that are useless to the shape will be sawed off. When sawing branches, there should be short stakes according to the shape of the trees, not all of them. The second is to cut short the thin, long, tall, unbranched and difficult-to-form trunk from the ground before plastic surgery, so that it can sprout new branches. Or there are several small trunks on the root, leaving only one trunk, cutting off the rest, and replacing the trunk with lateral branches, which can better show the tenacious vitality of the tree of nature. This is also called "Dayton", but the specific approach is different.

4. Make a film

All the main branches, branches, and three branches and four branches of the trunk are made with leaves into "dumpling head shape" or "cloud sheet shape" and other tree slices, requiring the dry pieces to be plump, slightly higher in the middle, round and thin and flat, which is called "making slices". The "frontal branch" (the human side of the branch) is not allowed to appear on the trunk, let alone make another piece on the frontal branch. The film is made mainly by cutting and supplemented by pruning. If you use brown rope to tie into flat and thin slices, it is very labor-consuming and time-consuming, and ordinary people also lack this kind of skill, so they mainly trim the core pieces. Generally do on the main branch, one piece, or there is a piece, the main branch should be from the trunk hunchback direction, not from the inner bend. In the pruning to do the film, a taboo "pole branch", that is, left and right to make a piece, forming a straight line, there is no difference between length and length. The second taboo "face branch", in the trunk of the branch, there is a straight forward, as if to pierce the eye of the viewer, it is not elegant, it should be sawed flat, it is better to lose one branch than to leave it as an eyesore. Pay attention to the branches behind the trunk, which is called "back wall branch". The back wall branch can make bonsai trees rich and three-dimensional.

5. Top off

It is required that the top root is relative to each other, and the top plate should not exceed the area of the pelvic floor (except for special ones). Pay attention to the appropriate movement, and pay more attention to the effect of looking up. The crown is tilted 1-2 cm backward, do not bow. The size of the top can only account for the second and third of the whole branch, and should not be larger than the branch. Specifically, it is required to be big and small, or symmetrical, not parallel up and down, or a single branch does not echo each other, one branch and other branches should be related to each other, and the branches should be hierarchical, and each piece should be stable and tidy, not covering each other, and not overlapping each other. Pay special attention to the branches can not be even, should be odd, from the overall point of view, dynamic but not rigid. If the branches of the cliff-style bonsai should be wide on top and narrow on the bottom, they appear to be particularly vigorous and vigorous.
