How to Make a Solitary Peak Landscape Stone Bonsai

How should a solitary peak landscape stone bonsai be made

Select tall, majestic landscape stones and shape them through artistic processing. When making it, the mountain peak should be kept at an appropriate height, generally 2 times the width of the pot. The peak should not be too short; if too short, it looks mediocre and fails to show the precipitous wonder of the peak. If the stone material used is hard stone, such as stalactite stone, ax-cut stone, etc., and the stone body feels rather thin, it can be joined by gluing several stones of the same color and texture together. If the stone material used is soft stone, such as sandstone, it can be processed by carving and chiseling. If the solitary peak feels too monotonous, a small flat stone can be placed beside it as a slope base, and pavilions, waterside houses and other ornaments can be placed on the slope base. Within an appropriate spacing in the pot, place small stones about 1/10 the size of the main peak as companion stones. The center of gravity of the solitary peak stone should not be placed at the center of the pot; it should be slightly to one side or toward the back, leaving more water surface, and a small boat can be placed on the water surface. Tiny cascade-style plants can be planted within the solitary peak stone, thereby expressing high mountains and broad waters.
