The chiness Art Of Dwar6ng Trees.
The art of dwarfing trees, as com
monty practiced In both China and Ia
pan, Is, in reality, simple and very easily
understood being, as It is, based on one
; g - ~or:aonest principles OF vegetable
physiology. Anything which has a
tendancy to cheek or retard the flow Of
sap IN the trees naturally prevents the
formation OF new wood. This process
Of retarding wood growth is done in
maay different ways. by pruning so as
to prevent leaves from forming and
giving the tree health and vigor; by con
filming the roots Ia 4 small space; by
Withholding water; by bending and
twisting The branches and by half
hundred other processes which all pro-
coed from the same principle. In dwarf
ing trees the Chinese and Japanese
gardeners are careful 20 always choose
specimens which are naturally stunted,
particularly Il they happen to have
branches opposite or regular, for it |
