Bonsai Show – Southwest

Explore displays of some of the highest quality bonsai trees in The Garden Room at RHS Garden Rosemoor. These trees have been nurtured and styled by the society members of the southwest, who are part of the Federation of British Bonsai Societies (FoBBS), which includes more than 60 organisations. Exhibitors are delighted to give advice and answer any questions about this absorbing and growing hobby of bonsai, and in particular, the trees they are exhibiting.

Some of the best professional bonsai nursery people and traders will be on hand at the show – two of whom are RHS Gold medal-winners. They have vast amounts of knowledge to help the novice to the experienced. There will also be trees, accessories and tools to buy if you want to start this hobby or extend your collection. 

Additionally, there will be a stand of suiseki (viewing stones), which express the Japanese art of stone appreciation that values aspects like stability, longevity and immortality.

Throughout the weekend, there is guided walks on Japanese plants, Taiko Drumming and Shinrin-yoku in the garden.
