 ** SHIPPING INFORMATION **

Below you will find a selection of field grown material that has been processed for bonsai culture and some material that has been previously potted. I understand it's hard to see the trunkline with leaves, winter pics of unsold material will be available. All material from the fields has been root washed, root pruned, unwanted branches removed and potted in nursery soil in squat pot containers. Excellent trunk line and taper can be found here. Squat pot stumps are SOLD only in late winter to early, early spring. This material falls back into regular production in March and no longer available in this form. Check mid to late winter for available items for best selection. These SELL OUT every year so act fast!
