Our on-line Bonsai shop sells trees, bonsai pots, bonsai soil and bonsai tools. We also do special Bonsai trees to order. Let me know what you would like and I will whizz a photograph across to you when I track something suitable down. If you would like to buy anything in the meantime, please take a look through the Shop, and call me with your order - Telephone: 07792 121913
We use all of the products that we sell on our own show trees e.g. akadama potting medium, and won't sell second quality materials. Many of our customers are Bonsai enthusiasts who have gathered enough knowledge to recognise the quality and value in our products.
Keeping costs down is important these days so if you live close to any of the gardening shows that I attend regularly we can arrange that you pick up your supplies at the show which also gives you an opportunity to view our award winning Bonsai display.

Some Bonsai Trees have been in the care of their owners for years and are reputed to be hundreds of years old. Japanese Bonsai Masters spend a life time honing their skills in the art of Bonsai and go through an apprenticeship in the earlier part of their career. If you would like to learn some of the skills used by the Bonsai Masters and use them caring for your own trees which could compliment a Japanese garden then come along to one of the Bonsai Training Workshops that we regularly hold through the year. The courses are inexpensive and a great way to begin learning what may become a passion. We provide Bonsai workshops for all skill levels and a great day is guaranteed for anyone attending.
Note - We can provide vouchers for a days training which can be presented to someone special in your life on those important occasions.

We now provide a service for all bonsai enthusiasts - a holiday for your bonsai. Well not so much a holiday as boarding your bonsai trees out with us while you go on holiday yourself. Bring your bonsai to us and we will care for them in our bonsai facility at Baldersby, watering and tending them on a daily basis whilst you are on your holiday without having to worry whether or not it is raining to water your trees while you are away.

Bonsai is thought of as a Japanese art form. Indeed bonsai trees in Japan tend to be passed down through the generations of families, members of those families being taught bonsai care and maintenance from a young age. The first recorded miniature trees however were recorded in China hundreds of years before the Japanese "borrowed" another bit of Chinese culture and adopted it as their own. Nowadays if you travel in the east you will find that many eastern cultures have adopted bonsai and many houses proudly display their bonsai trees such as the Japanese Black Pine as garden ornaments.
I am currently working on some pages to add to the site (although I am very busy as this is the gardening show season), my newest additions will be a couple of pages on Bonsai Styles and some advice on where to buy bonsai which I am working on at the moment.
I hope you enjoy my website, gallery and blog, they may be small - but beautifully formed!
