Displaying Bonsai in the Garden

Display bonsai in the garden on simple shelves set on concrete blocks. Place the shelves against an outside wall away from trees, and protect them from the sun. Other good locations for bonsai are slat benches and decks, either in the garden or adjoining the house. (See fig. 14.) Bonsai in large containers look better displayed alone. Place them on some kind of stand, rather than setting them on the ground.
