Yamagoke has arrived! We've only got a limited quantity at this time and there's a delay on getting more from Japan.

This is a good time to stock up on cut paste and other repotting supplies, too!

Yamagoke is the go-to for a surface covering after repotting shohin & mame bonsai, and for shallow-rooted species like azaleas, crepe myrtle, etc. It is leaps and bounds better than sphagnum moss. It readily re-wets, it is a naturally smaller size, permitting it to nest better to resist being...

Sadly, we will not be vending for the remainder of 2020 due to COVID-19 concerns and the well-being and overall concern for the health of our treasured customers.

We are still able to ship products that are in-stock and we're working with our international carrier to confirm the ability to ship outside the US.

We're taking advantage of the current climate to build our inventory of plant material in order to have an even better selection moving forward.

What we are most sad about is the inability to host our regular pre-National party on the Friday before the US National. This decision was largely made for us by the inability to rent out the park. We dearly love this tradition for so many reasons, and are extremely sad that it cannot take place this year. However, we *are* looking forward to 2022 and being able to resume hosting the bi-annual party that we love!

We've been able to secure a steady supplier of Yamagoke. It takes a little more to clean it, but otherwise it's every bit as good as the original! Best part is that we just reduced it from $25 to $20!!

We've got plenty on hand and can fill orders right away!
