Where to buy a bonsai tree

Ravelleman · 25-03-2013 03:32PM #1

I want to get a Bonsai tree for my OH's birthday - she loves them - but I'm not sure where to look. I don't have a car and I only have a 3 days to get it so some suggestions in south Dublin or Dublin city centre would be greatly appreciated.

I know of the shop in the Powerscourt centre but last time I went there it seemed to be geared towards more advanced Bonsais at higher prices.

Ideally I'd like to spend under €30 if possible. Although love itself has no limits it's still a tree.

I know that the Bonsai shop does Grow Your Own Bonsai kits. It could be a nice way of learning about the hobby, and one day she'll be able to look at her cool bonsai and know that she grew it from seed.

That´s actually quite a good idea. The first one I bought her met an unfortunately end at my hands when I was minding it so this might heal that wound! Thanks.

Tesco Ballybrack also had them last week.
