Penjing
From Wikipedia, a free encyclopedia written in simple English for easy reading.
Penjing (盆景 pinyin: pén jǐng, literally tray scenery) is the ancient Chinese art of growing trees and plants. The plants are kept small by skilled pruning. People make them create an aesthetic shape. Poeple may also make them look old. Penjing is very similar to (and a precursor of) the Japanese art of bonsai.
