You've waited long enough. A new "Era" of Kusamono and Bonsai Containers is upon us. Introducing the new PALEO Series from Carolina Bonsai. 300 Million Years in the making! This first design in the series comes in 3 different shapes and 3 different clay bodies. Each container is subtly imprinted at least once with an actual trilobite (521 - 252 million years old). This collection of containers measure approximately 7 inches (17-18cm). Each pot is chopped and signed. There will be a limited number of these available. Please drop me an email at [email protected] if you're interested in any of these containers. We'll keep you posted as new designs in the PALEO Series "evolve".

Just got back from the fabulous US National Bonsai Exhibition in Rochester, NY. Besides the incredible exhibition, I also had the good fortune to meet a talented ceramic artist relatively new to the bonsai world. April Grigsby is from Ohio and her work is just wonderful. While some of her pots would be great for small to medium sized bonsai, many of her new and unique designs are purpose built and perfect for a distinctive kusamono arrangement. As you can see, her forms and glazes are both beautiful and distinctive. I'm very excited to carry a selection of her beautiful containers. Affordable prices range from $32-$65.

Carolina Bonsai also carries 2 Japanese Organic Bonsai Fertilizers. "OOF", otherwise know as "Organic Odorless Fertilizer" or Tosho Omakase. You read that right, these beautiful little pellets don't get slimy and they have no odor. These 700g bags are $25.
And we also carry the traditional, slow release Japanese fertilizer "Tamahi". The container pictured is a 16 oz container for $10, but larger quantities are available upon request.

We also carry a variety of specialty organic bonsai fertilizers, like Superfly Professional Bonsai Fertilizer pellets. 12 oz for $9, 2 lb for $12, or 5lb for $21 (not pictured). A great, slow release, organic fertilizer that steadily feeds each time you water. Be sure to call if you have any questions about fertilizer use and application practices.

This just in! A new shipment of fine bonsai ceramics from the talented artists at Walsall Studio Ceramics in the UK. The talented ceramists (David Jones, Mark Jones, and Esther Griffiths) make some absolutely beautiful pots with outstanding forms and glazes that present very earthy themes. The glazes are very unique and complex. I have to say that the photos don't do the pots justice. Here are just a few of the items currently available. Be sure to stop by to take a look if you're in the area. If not, feel free to give me a call if you have any questions.

If you haven't seen it already, there is a brand new bonsai tool being manufactured by our friends at Superfly Bonsai, under the Kiku Elite line. It is the new Jinshari Knife. It is similar to a Swiss carving knife that was adopted by bonsai artists to carve Jin and Shari. However, this one was designed by bonsai artists for bonsai artists. It is a fantastic tool that everyone who creates dead wood as part of their bonsai creations really should have in the tool kit. I recently received a restock of Kiku tools, including a good supply of the new Jinshari Knife. You'll want to check it out.
