Bonsai Author 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 Herb Gustafson 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. Of course, there are other great bonsai authors. Craig Coussins is one more of the good ones. It turns out that the Art of Bonsai takes patience - lots of patience. I honestly thought I could have some awesome Bonsai Plants by summer's end. Surprise! How about years and years. Okay, I can wait. I have a very pretty Evergreen Bonsai by the front porch. It's about 10" high. I'm going to keep working with it and see what comes from it as time goes by. I'll be checking my Bonsai Books for help at the different stages of growth.

- I am a huge admirer of bonsai and had some books from the seventies and tried the art. I think it requires a high degree of attention than I will never be able to give it. I settle on doing a large side yard with succulents instead.

- Succulents are so diverse in form that I can't get enough of them. They're growing in my side yard also.

- 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.
