Dear Friend and Future Bonsai Master,

Welcome to my Japanese Bonsai website. My name is Mike Andrews and I've been fascinated with the art and horticulture of bonsai for over 20 years. In that time, I've gained a respectable amount of knowledge about the various aspects of this amazing hobby that is popular throughout the world.
