Join us at the Garden for a lecture and demonstration on the art of saikei ("scenic planting" or "landscape planting") - an offshoot of bonsai that was developed and named in post-World War II Japan. Lecturer David De Groot will introduce the art of saikei through words, images, and a demonstration in which he will explain the aesthetics and techniques involved as he creates a living saikei. A question and answer period will follow the demonstration.

With David De Groot, Weyerhauser Bonsai
