Part One: Herb Gustafson
I am new to the art of bonsai, but I'm learning a lot. Mostly by reading a lot of really good books on the subject, and a little by doing. This lens will be about one of the authors of these books that I have come to enjoy so much. Not a full biography, just a little info about him and his books. I wasn't born knowing how to create nice bonsai, but with the help of these books, I can do it...and so can you...and you...and you over there in the corner. I intend to do lenses on a few other bonsai artists after this one.

Chemical sprays method of pest control is simple and effective. However, some have concerns about the use of laboratory-made chemicals to get rid of garden pests. Organic pest control does provide a natural method of controlling pests. Posted November 04, 2007 |
