Bonsai trees often make an appearance in a Japanese garden, being best displayed against a plain background with lots of space either side, so that they can be properly appreciated and to promote even, all-round growth. Plinths are ideal for displaying bonsai trees, allowing them to be easily elevated to eye-level.
