會員們:
CAA 有幸受到 “中國盆景藝術家協會” 的邀請，在2013年9月29日出席其位於廣東中山古鎮舉行的 “中國首屆國際盆景展覽會議” 作為參禮嘉賓，感覺無上榮幸。
是次展覽會議，除了集中了中華地區的盆景界精英以外，亦邀請到全球盆景的愛好者數十人前來附會，展品運到數百件，規模之大，影響之廣，前所未見。 附件裡緝錄了本會拍下的各項代表作，供會員們雅俗共賞。
我國盆景的歷史已有數千年。 其來源有可能是人們喜愛樹木但由於家居環境的限制，把大樹無意的栽在小盆裡而把它長年累月的修剪，久而久之而變成 “盆景” 。 國際上公認好的盆景，其實就是大樹的縮影，也有可能是盆景界所謂的 “縮龍成寸” 了。
盆景栽培與樹藝知識有很多相似的地方。 城市種樹不是同樣發生泥土空間小、排水不良、土質惡化、樹冠與旁邊硬結構產生競爭的情況嗎？ 盆景也需要不停修剪去維持樹形，這與城市樹木的定期修剪不相上下，只是目標不同而矣。
本會會長欧永森秉承盆景種植達三代人之久，也是為何獲邀出席此次盛會的原因之一。 作為全亞洲唯一元的 “顧問樹藝師”，歐先生說他的樹藝修剪手法，很多都是從父輩修剪盆景那裡取經，比如說 “樹冠清理” 、“結構性修剪” 、 “樹冠減縮” 和 “樹冠清減” 等等的手法，皆與保持盆景樹體的徤康和優美的結構有關，只是各方的叫法不同而矣，有點像中醫學和西方醫學的異曲同工。
盆景在中國被當成藝術，盆景家說不出它的背後科學理論。 樹藝學在西方國家則被看作成一門科學，樹藝師很少去理解大樹當中包含的藝術美態。 CAA 現在嘗試把兩者混在一起，可能這會讓雙方更能了解對方，然後共同愛護保護我們珍貴的城市樹木資源。
謹此致意!

会员们:
CAA 有幸受到 “中国盆景艺术家协会” 的邀请，在2013年9月29日出席其位於广东中山古镇举行的 “中国首届国际盆景展览会议” 作为参礼嘉宾，感觉无上荣幸。
是次展览会议，除了集中了中华地区的盆景界精英以外，亦邀请到全球盆景的爱好者数十人前来附会，展品运到数百件，规模之大，影响之广，前所未见。 附件里缉录了本会拍下的各项代表作，供会员们雅俗共赏。
我国盆景的历史已有数千年。 其来源有可能是人们喜爱树木但由於家居环境的限制，把大树无意的栽在小盆里而把它长年累月的修剪，久而久之而变成 “盆景” 。 国际上公认好的盆景，其实就是大树的缩影，也有可能是盆景界所谓的 “缩龙成寸” 了。
盆景栽培与树艺知识有很多相似的地方。 城市种树不是同样发生泥土空间小、排水不良、土质恶化、树冠与旁边硬结构产生竞争的情况吗？ 盆景也需要不停修剪去维持树形，这与城市树木的定期修剪不相上下，只是目标不同而矣。
本会会长欧永森秉承盆景种植达叁代人之久，也是为何获邀出席此次盛会的原因之一。 作为全亚洲唯一元的 “顾问树艺师”，欧先生说他的树艺修剪手法，很多都是从父辈修剪盆景那里取经，比如说 “树冠清理” 、“结构性修剪” 、 “树冠减缩” 和 “树冠清减” 等等的手法，皆与保持盆景树体的徤康和优美的结构有关，只是各方的叫法不同而矣，有点像中医学和西方医学的异曲同工。
盆景在中国被当成艺术，盆景家说不出它的背後科学理论。 树艺学在西方国家则被看作成一门科学，树艺师很少去理解大树当中包含的艺术美态。 CAA 现在尝试把两者混在一起，可能这会让双方更能了解对方，然後共同爱护保护我们珍贵的城市树木资源。
谨此致意!

Dear Station Members,
As part of our regional connection, CAA was invited as a VIP to attend the 2013 First Internal Bonsai Exhibition & Conference of China. Some of the photos of the event are attached for public reference.
Some may ask what has Bonsai Conference got to do with Modern Arboriculture? However, if one would carefully study how a Bonsai is produced & kept for a hundred years, would there not be similarities in the growing methods, maintenance, pruning, fertilization, soil science & risk assessment (of it dying or toppling in wind) ? Crown Cleaning, Crown thinning & Crown Reduction are frequently used in Bonsai maintenance, although the Chinese never understood why they were done that way. The Bonsai masters appear to look into results, rather than trying to understand the science of it.
A good Bonsai is a well structured & healthy miniaturized tree. Bonsai practically means a big tree growing in a pot. The longer the Bonsai would survive & the bigger it is, the more expensive it becomes in the market. Trying to grow a tree in a pot, & to help it survive for a hundred years, would certainly take some skills. The soil, the drainage, pruning, fertilization, etc. are all challenges. It would be even harder to ensure survival in a container so small, if comparing to urban tree planting.
Somehow the Chinese have mastered these skills & have done it for thousands of years. But if asked how they can do it, they would explain in unscientific terms that hardly the outsiders, especially the Arborists who are trained in science, could apprehend. The CAA President Sammy Au himself is a third generation Bonsai Master, & has grown up with Bonsai production since he was 6. Even so he has difficulties in communicating with the other Bonsai Masters in terms of science.
Bosai is a big business in China, & it is practiced by wealthy businessmen & influential officials. This is where CAA has set our eyes upon them, to let them promote Modern Arboriculture for us in the Land of the Old Dragons. Having insiders would speed up the process always in this part of the world.
CAA is working hard to seek every opportunity to promote the Arborist Profession in the China Region. We do not give up any chance, be it routine or not yet, as long as it can achieve our goal at the end.
best regards,
Sammy Au
