A little video at Brussel’s Bonsai

[Adair M]

I copied this video from Facebook. It shows what it’s like to stand in one of Brussel’s greenhouses and look around.

Bear in mind that this is just one of several greenhouses there.

If only something like that were anywhere near me. Then I could go stare at everything wishing I could buy, but then remembering I’m a broke full time artist. ??‍

One of many greenhouses..lthat is simply mind blowing!

It’s seriously mind blowing, it’s hard to believe that the market actually exists to support this size of an operation. Though I suppose their bread and butter is probably procumbens and ficus mallsai type stuff. Pretty amazing, factory farmed bonsai! ?

So many poodles.... so little time...

 

[coh]

I wonder who glues the rocks on when they ship them out to Walmart.

Here are some of the pictures I took at Bru'ssel in Mississippi. When I'm ready, I will just drive there and wander until I find one I like.

If anyone of us travel to Memphis area, it's worth a little drive to go to Brussel's location. When I was there they were very friendly and allowed me to roam around in their facility. If you want to see how many greenhouse they have you can see it from Google map satellite view. However, to see the scale of the operation, you have to be there. One can easily get overwhelmed by the vast number of bonsai and the quality from cheap starter to bonsai costing many thousands $US.

The place is HUGE!!!
If anyone is ever in the area, let me know I would love to meet some more nuts, I am just 10 minutes away.

Oh @Adair, thanks for this video. That is an amazing operation! I hope to go one day, but it is a long drive from Michigan. I know they ship, but I'd like to pick out my own tree.

They post specimen trees on their website, and Matt Smith puts a few on eBay.
