Production of French Bonsai
Outdoors in all seasons. Protect the pot to prevent the roots from freezing in winter and protect it from the cold wind. In summer, an eastern exposure is ideal to enjoy the morning sun, and to protect the bonsai from the scorching afternoon sun. But most importantly, protect it from the wind. More than heat, it is the latter that can toast the leaves and dry them out. Maple trees can withstand high temperatures very well as they have a high humidity. When it's very hot, don't hesitate to water regularly, several times a day. In spring and fall, you can put it in full sun to promote small internodes (spring) and beautiful red colors (in fall).

The palmatum maple in bonsai
There are many varieties of maple trees in bonsai and the Palmatum is what is known as the type species. It is the easiest to grow with fast growth and short internodes. We love bonsai maples for their changing appearance with the seasons. Their shimmering foliage fears the sun and especially the hot wind that can give the impression that the leaves are burnt.
+ Family: Aceraceae
+ Origin: Japan, Korea, China
+ Pinkish-green foliage in spring, green in summer and orange-red in autumn
+ Seedlings grown in the ground and then in pots
How does the delivery work?
We ship bonsai throughout France and neighbouring countries that are part of the EU.
Each bonsai is individually wrapped in a wooden box, with the pot securely attached to avoid any risk of breakage of the pottery or branching.
Depending on the size and/or weight, the shipment is made by La Poste or by specialized carrier (with appointment by SMS).
In order to prevent your bonsai from staying in transit for too long, shipments are never made on weekends or during heat waves.

The + of our bonsai nursery
The bonsai tree you see in the picture is really the one you are going to receive. To find out the dimension, refer to the scale on the side. Each product is unique and we take care to take photos that give you the most accurate preview possible of what you will receive.
All bonsai are produced in our large nursery in Lot-et-Garonne. They are therefore perfectly adapted to the climate of France, which is not always the case with Japanese imports.
We have more than 1000 bonsai for sale at the nursery and tens of thousands under cultivation and work. This site is only a meagre representation of our production, but it is impossible for us to put all our stock online. So if you're passing by, don't hesitate to visit us!
