Sichuan style bonsai is rooted in Bashan Shushui.

Sichuan bonsai is one of the five major schools of traditional Chinese bonsai, which is deeply rooted in the magnificent and beautiful Bashan Shushui. Bonsai production skills represented by Chengdu area are the foundation and core of Sichuan bonsai production skills.

Sichuan style bonsai has a long history, profound cultural heritage, exquisite craftsmanship and strong local characteristics. As early as the period of Shuhan, Lord Liu Zen built an Le Palace in Chengdu, recommended planting trees in the palace, and reproduced the Qifeng dangerous cliff and ancient wood pine in his memory in the pot. Also made of stone, wood bowls of different length and depth, planted with low trees and equipped with rocks, in the palace is "eight" character decoration. Ministers and merchants have followed suit, and this form of landscaping has spread in Chengdu.

Prince Li Xian of Zhang Huai, who was suspected by Wu Zetian in the Tang Dynasty, was demoted to Chengdu and kept company with bonsai plants all day long to make bonsai for pleasure. In the late Tang Dynasty, when Li Deyu served as an envoy to Xichuan, he built a house on the East Lake in Chengdu, where trees and stones were set off with bonsai plants. Du Fu in the Northern Song Dynasty praised the "West Shu Stone" in his Yunlin Stone Spectrum. Wang Shipeng in the Southern Song Dynasty has a poem "Jiannan Bonsai": "Ergong Xin has a clear ancient appearance and is interesting in Linquan. Cunbi lives far from Jinjiang and lives in the west. The hills and valleys in the mountains are like golden valleys with rough stone canals. I have Qianfeng to hide the wild goose, holding up the sky with a pillar of emptiness. " The author's original preface: "Mr. Jinhua has Qi Shibi, who is far away from Shu Chen Hongzhou."... A Yandang Qunfeng wrong cling, all several cases between things. " The author and the two friends who presented themselves with bonsai are experts in bonsai, praising the bonsai made of strange stones from the distant Jinjiang River.

During the Ming and Qing dynasties, the stump banding processing methods and techniques of Sichuan bonsai have been basically finalized, and the annual Qingyang Palace Flower Temple Fair promoted the exchange of bonsai production skills. In the early years of the Republic of China, Panzha's skills were quite mature and complete, and the bonsai skills of tree stumps were raised to a historical height.
