Bonsaïs are robust trees that can perfectly endure long journeys. Every year we receive bonsai arriving from Japan that have been in shipping holds for several weeks.

Our experience of sending bonsai dates back to 1989 and since that time we've successfully delivered trees to many countries.

We've been sending bonsai and gardening accessories in France and to Europe for more than 30 years. Our plants are wrapped to avoid dehydration and resist cold and heat and are fixed solidly in their packaging. They are generally delivered in a perfect condition to all destinations. Plants in bloom require special packing techniques that we've mastered to permit their expedition.
