Side note about Practical Guide to Bonsai Styles of the World by Charles S. Ceronio - The book has been out of print for some time but there are still copies out there if you do some research. It's a great book that's well worth the hunt. I didn't find out until after recording as well that Charles S. Ceronio has passed. Rip September 5, 2016, Thank you for sharing your bonsai knowledge.
