repotting service

Repotting is an activity which bonsai owners may find daunting. Whilst we do offer a repotting service we only offer this service by appointment during February and March each year, we set aside a day a week (usually a Tuesday) to do this. The tree should still be in dormancy for repotting. If it is flowering or its active spring growth has started, we will not be able to repot the tree so the tree's growth cycle doesn't get disturbed.

Though it is possible to repot some trees at other times of the year we, as a nursery, are only able to offer this service in February and March for customers, as the rest of the year we are busy with the many other jobs required on our Bonsai nursery.

Pricing - If you want to have your bonsais re-potted, you can leave them with us and collect them when they are done at your earliest convenience but no later than one week from the date of repotting. Please note that re-potting will only be carried out on a Tuesday, as we are extremely busy with our own trees during the repotting season. The average cost of re-pottting a small bonsai is around £10. Repotting of large and complicated trees is from £50 -£100 as some of these bonsai involve two or more strong staff and Peter's time.

If you would like a 1-2-1 Re-potting workshop with Peter, please contact our office.
We have quite a few clients who ask for this service.

If you simply need advice on the choice of pot for your bonsai or 'Slip-potting' into a slightly larger pot - there is no charge for this.
Please send a photograph of your tree/ trees via email to [email protected] including the height of the tree so, that we may assess the work involved and provide an estimated cost of work. 

Please email [email protected] or call 01342 832657. 

YouTube Tutorials - If you want to repot your own tree and need a little confidence to get started Peter has done many tutorials on repotting and how to choose the right pot for your tree please visit the YouTube Channel for videos.

Please note: at the weekend we are unable to repot while you wait. If you are unable to come on a Tuesday you will need to be able to leave your tree with us to repot and collect another day.
