About the event
Growing Native and Naturalised species such as bonsai is becoming very popular in the UK and Europe. However, their demand far outstrips their supply, which means that even the most modest Native Bonsai command a significantly higher price than imported Bonsai of comparable maturity. We will look at strategies and systems for growing native species for Bonsai and which species lend themselves naturally to Bonsai. We will look at the common species like Beech, Hornbeam, Silver Birch, English Elm, and Oaks and explore more exotic European species such as Willows, Alders, Conkers and lots more.
