15. Laurence Oliphant's Dwarfed Tree Observations Laurence Oliphant (18291888) was private secretary to Lord Elgin and assembleda history of the proceedings of the Special Mission to China and Japan. http://www.phoenixbonsai.com/1800Refs/Oliphant.html

"Dwarfed Trees" from Laurence Oliphant's Narrative Laurence Oliphant (1829-1888) was private secretary to Lord Elgin and assembled a history of the proceedings of the Special Mission to China and Japan. A year was passed in each country, and all comparisons made with the Celestial Empire were in favour of Japan. Briefly, British and French forces had seized Canton in 1856, precipitating a new Anglo-Chinese War. Elgin was sent and helped negotiate the Treaties of Tientsin by late June 1858 to end the War. China agreed to open more ports to Britain, France, the United States, and Russia. Meanwhile the treacherous attack at Taku upon Sir Frederick Bruce led to a renewal of hostilities in the north, and the English diplomat Sir Harry Smith Parkes Narrative of the Earl of Elgin's Mission to China and Japan in the Years 1857, 1858 and 1859 Yew-trees, cut into fantastic shapes, and dwarfed trees, extending their deformed arms as if for assistance and support, are favourite garden ornaments [in Japan]. (Vol. II, pg. 165) The botanical gardens themselves did not exactly correspond to our notions on the subject. There were neither fine old trees in great variety, nor a large and curious collection of all descriptions of plants. The rage of horticulturists in this country seemed to be grasses, mosses, and ferns of all sorts, added to which there was an extensive assortment of dwarfed trees. Instead of glass greenhouses, there were long mat-sheds for the more delicate specimens; while ranged upon stands, as in England, were quantities of porcelain pots of various shapes and colours, but generally blue, with a piece of rock in the centre, and a root of grass or moss growing round it. But a Japanese gardener chiefly prides himself upon his skill in dwarfing. The most venerable forest-trees may here be seen in flower-pots, their old stems, gnarled and twisted as if writhing under the torture of distortion

17. LAURENCE OLIPHANT - LoveToKnow Article On LAURENCE OLIPHANT Oliphant, Laurence (18291888), British author, son of Anthony Oliphant (1793_1859),iwas born at Cape Town. 1 The family to which Oliphant belonged is old http://46.1911encyclopedia.org/O/OL/OLIPHANT_LAURENCE.htm

LAURENCE OLIPHANT OLIPHANT, LAURENCE (1829-1888), British author, son of Anthony Oliphant (1793_1859),i was born at Cape Town. He was more happily inspired when he threw over his legal studies and went to travel in Russia. The outcome of that tour was his book on The Russian Shores of the Black Sea (1853). Between 1853 and 1861 he was successively secretary to Lord Elgin during the negotiation of the Canada Reciprocity treaty at Washington, the companion of the duke of Newcastle on a visit to the Circassian coast during the Crimean War, and Lord Elgins private secretary on his expedition to China. Each of these experiences produced a pleasant book of travel. In 1861 he was appointed first secretary in Japan, and might have made a successful diplomatic career if it had not been interrupted, almost at the outset, by a night attack on the legation, in which he nearly lost his life. It seems probable that he never properly recovered from this affair. He returned to England and resigned the service, and was elected to parliament in 1865 for the Stirling Burghs. Another member of the family was Laurence Oliphant (1691 1767) the Jacobite, who belonged to a branch settled at Gask in Perthshire. He took part in the rising of I715,and both he and his son Laurence (d. 1792) were actively concerned in that of 1745, being present at the battles of Falkirk and Culloden. After the ruin of the Stuart cause they escaped to France, but were afterwards allowed to return to Scotland. One of this Oliphants descendants was Carolina, Baroness Nairne (q.v.).
