Bonsai is the ancient art of growing and grooming trees in pots for the appreciation of their beauty. This art form, a wonderful merging of art, horticulture, and nature, began at least 1,500 years ago when it captivated the passion of many in Asian countries. Today, bonsai is appreciated throughout the world.  This exhibit at the Botanic Gardens' Nevin Welcome Center features a variety of unique trees cultivated by members of the Finger Lakes Bonsai Society, including maple, pine, elm, spruce, and juniper.
