From May 2009 we will be joining forces with Peter Warren, one of the most well known names in the Bonsai world to open a new Bonsai Nursery on the premises at Koi Water Barn. Peter, a professional Bonsai artist from Yorkshire trained for five years under one of the top masters in Japan and is now on a mission to bring the best of Japanese Bonsai to the rest of the world, particularly the UK.
He learnt in the same way as a Japanese, serving a traditional apprenticeship working long arduous hours under intense pressure to create and maintain some of the most beautiful trees in the world. During this time he had the opportunity to learn from the great Japanese Masters of not only bonsai but suiseki, display and pots. Now he will bring that expertise and knowledge along with a wide range of the finest quality trees and pots.
Over the last year he has travelled far and wide, Europe, Japan and the US, however he is looking forward to the challenge of starting a new business here at KWB and we are looking forward to offering our customers a wider range of services. Peter intends to create a Bonsai School, catering from the absolute beginner to the highest level enthusiast. He will also offer a complete maintenance service. Those of you who have trees along your pond will want to keep a close eye on what is happening here this year.
