Late winter is typically busy at Shibui Bonsai. Trees in the grow beds must be dug, pruned and assessed. The best are potted up for you to purchase. Others are replanted to continue developing. A few that don’t look like measuring up\u00a0are consigned to the scrapheap.<\/p>\n

These trees will need several months to grow new roots before they will be able to survive shipping to customers. I’m happy to take early orders but won’t be sending any of these out until November at the earliest. generally the junipers (right at the end of the bench in this photo) \u00a0take even longer to re-establish in the pots.<\/p>\n
