Where can I purchase a Bonsai Tree in the GTA ?

Question

I'm looking to buy a Bonsai Tree and I live in downtown Toronto. Does anyone know any good, near places. I don't want to spend that much money, maybe around the $50-$70 mark. Also can someone give me a good website (regardless of its location) so I can check out some types of Bonsai, I don't know anything about them...Also what type of a Bonsai tree is more visual and attractive, or interesting for that matter?

Thanks

Answer 1

Have a look at this site for examples.

Reeve's Plant world on Eglinton near Scarlett Road is a large greenhouse I would check out. Downtown could get difficult because there aren't really any greenhouses/nurseries around.

Another source of info and suggestions would be local bonsai clubs.

You can check for a club near you on these sites and contact someone directly.
