Not genetically dwarfed plants.

THE ULTIMATE GOAL OF

to create a realistic depiction of nature by
using techniques such as pinching buds, pruning
and wiring branches, and carefully restricting
but not abandoning fertilizers are used to limit
and redirect healthy growth.

 THE SECRET OF
BONSAI GROWTH
The cell in the bonsai tree was discovered
the same size and some are larger
than their counterparts.

What makes Bonsai trees miniature?

There are fewer cells present in the leaf.

The cutting of roots and lack of nutrients

slowth the growth rate of apical mesristems
which causes fewer cells to form a leaf bump,
resulting in a smaller leaf.
