"In his new book, "Bountiful Bonsai: Create Instant Indoor Container Gardens with Edible Fruits, Herbs and Flowers," Bender sets out to teach us how to shape and enjoy bonsai houseplants Bender’s aim is to teach us how to quickly grow ordinary varieties with modern techniques and everyday garden tools. We may have to do some regular or even heavy pruning on some of these plants; bonsai edibles kept in a sunroom, for example, may grow faster and much taller than their tiny, wired counterparts confined to small containers. But the payoff in fruits and fragrance plus the pleasure of living with a bit of nature in your home is surely worth the effort." "HGTV Gardens" blog"
"In "Bountiful Bonsai," Richard W. Bender expands the art of bonsai from ornamental trees to include plants usually found in orchards, herb gardens, or flower borders. Bender encourages gardeners to explore this new twist on traditional bonsai by suggesting alternative bonsai subjects and describing how they are best developed into beautiful and productive specimens."
