We are just about finished with the revamp of our site and invite all questions in the meanwhile to be sent to us at questions -AT- miniature-bonsai -DOT- com.
We specialize in offering the finest in hand-crafted and Japanese containers, exceptional tools sized for working on miniature bonsai, imported reading material strictly regarding miniature bonsai, carefully selected and groomed pre-bonsai material and bonsai ready for display.
Our goal is simple and focused; helping you get even more enjoyment from working with miniature bonsai.
To achieve that goal, we are not like all the other bonsai sites out there. If you're looking for a $3 container, you won't find it here. If you're looking for the lowest price on the same books everyone else carries, sorry. What you will find are not common - some not available anywhere else in The States! We enjoy miniature bonsai tremendously. Whether it's deciduous, evergreen, or a deciduous evergreen, if it's pre-bonsai stock, we won't sell it if we wouldn't use it ourselves - the same applies to everything we offer. If we wouldn't use it, we certainly wouldn't expect you to be happy with it! Sometimes that means we're low on inventory or out of a particular species. We aren't trying to sell to everyone and anyone - just those interested in getting more enjoyment out of the creation and caring of miniature bonsai.
The site is yours to enjoy - from tips and articles to the gallery and photo progressions. If you're looking for a specific tool, by all means drop us a note. If we don't have it, we'll be happy to get it - most times a custom request will be sent from Japan to us and from us to you in less than two weeks.
A Minor Caveat: We cannot ship plant material to destinations outside the United States at all. Within the US, we cannot ship plant material to California. These restrictions are strictly limited to plant material and we do apologize, but we don't make the laws, we just need to abide by them. Anything else, we'll be happy to send to any destination in the US, Canada, South America, and Europe or arrange for local pickup.
