Twice last week Dot and I visited Australia's national collection of Bonsai and Penjing. Most have heard of the former, even if it is in the context of Bonsaiing one's pet, and know what one looks like - see the first picture. Penjing are a Chinese equivalent in which an articial landscape or collection of dwarf trees is constructed. I'd like to take it up as a hobby if I could find the time! I gather that the collection will move to Canberra's new arboretum shortly.
