About the Bonsai Kai
The Bonsai Kai is the oldest bonsai club in Europe
was formed in 1961 in response to growing interest in the cultivation
of bonsai trees. At that time it was under the auspices of the Japanese
Society, founded in 1891, although it is now an independent organisation.
Over the years many well-known figures in the bonsai world have
been involved.
The
knowledge and experience of both members and expert speakers can
be gained at the Bonsai Kais regular monthly meetings which
serve as a forum for the diffusion of expert advice on the cultivation
of bonsai.
The Bonsai Kai is an affiliated society of the
Royal Horticultural Society. Since its foundation the Kai has regularly
exhibited at the prestigious Chelsea Flower Show and won numerous
Gold Medals. It also exhibits twice a year at the RHS London shows
and at the annual bonsai event held in the Societys Wisley
garden in Surrey.
All the trees featured on this website are owned
and styled by members of Bonsai Kai.
