Extremely mature bonsai with fabulous extra-large proportions; a spectacular strong and powerful trunk. Lush even canopy of lobbed leaves and the most sensational root flare (nebari). This is the bonsai you will receive! A fabulous English Oak (Quercus rubra) with lovely proportions and great character.
I love the Oak, a beautiful bonsai which is very hardy and ideal for beginners. This particular bonsai is phenomenal in stature and artistic design.

With a very powerful strong trunk, incredible exposed root flare with spreading design which is mirrored in the canopy. The bark is aged and craggy as one would expect to find in a very old woodland tree. The oak is an emblem of power, strength, ancient wisdom and survival and many nations, including England, have chosen the Oak as their national tree. In addition to representing qualities related to power and durability, the oak tree is considered a bearer of good luck, fertility, potency, healing and health.

This 35 year old bonsai has a trunk diameter of 7cm. A truly magnificent spreading canopy of wonderful lobed leaves. A hardy bonsai which would make an outstanding feature of any garden, decking, patio or balcony. A bonsai for the discerning – someone who can appreciate the attention to detail and the years of work taken to create. The design of this bonsai has inspiration from parkland estate trees. Potted into a classic Japanese style ceramic bonsai pot this beautiful bonsai is both commanding and majestic.

Maintenance
• Keep outdoors year-round in a bright position with full sun to partial shade.
• Water regularly, allowing the top layer of soil to slightly dry between watering while ensuring good drainage.
• Feed from spring through early autumn to support strong growth and healthy leaf development.
• Prune new shoots back to maintain shape and encourage a well-ramified branch structure.
• Wire branches carefully during the dormant season, as Oak wood becomes stiff quickly.
• Protect the pot in prolonged severe frost to prevent root damage, although the tree itself is hardy.
• Repot every 2–4 years in early spring before bud burst, using a free-draining bonsai soil mix.

English Oak (Quercus robur)
Although I love all trees, the English Oak holds a special place in my heart. It was a natural progression for me to specialise in them. Our English Oak bonsai are fantastic representations of these majestic native trees. They form powerful trunks and main branches and make incredible bonsai. On most of our oak bonsai the leaf size is down to about 5cm (2”) and on some of the older ones they are about 2.5cm (1”) They are easy to care for and extremely hardy. A must for all tree and bonsai lovers. Prune to shape.
