Event offers bonsai basics
The practice of cultivating bonsai has been practiced in Japan for centuries, and an upcoming event will introduce it to a group of Long Beach plant lovers.
The workshop will be geared at bonsai beginners, and while they learn, they will be able to sip on a drink. A hands-on event, it will provide the fundamentals of cultivating pants in miniature forms.
Attendees will each pot their own plant to grow on at home, and they will learn how to prune and wire it so that it maintains its size and desired shape. They will be working with jade plants, but the techniques taught can be used with other species as well.
Tickets are $100, and each participant will be able to take their creation home with them at the end of the session.
Hands-on activities like this can make learning a new skill a lot of fun. Handouts are often distributed during these events, and they can be prepared by stationery printers.
This introduction to the basics for the bonsai beginner will be offered on Wednesday, March 5, starting at 6:00 pm, although everyone is asked to arrive a few minutes early so they can place their food and drink order and find their seat. It will be held at Belmont Brewing Co., located at 39th Pl in Long Beach.
