BONSAI STOLEN FROM HERONS ON 23 OCT 2024
Three major specimen BONSAI were stolen - maybe a fourth.
The first tree is my famous Blaauw's Juniper which I started making back in 1984. Was at Wisley until recently but at Herons for restyling.
The second one is a massive Chinese Elm, also back at Herons from Wisley for grooming.
The third one is a new tree I bought at Telford on 5th October.
If you see or hear of anyone selling these trees - please let me or the Police know.
Needless to say they are very valuable trees and sentimental too!

There are 2 videos about the theft on the Herons Bonsai Youtube channel.

In this video you can watch the images of security camera.

In this video Peter is showing pictures of the stolen trees.

Maybe this community can help Peter finding his trees back so please keep your eyes open for them.

This is pretty wild. The videos of these clowns was very entertaining though. I truly hope they will get brought to justice. I’ve heard the cctv over in the uk is pretty omnipresent.

I wonder what the monetary value is of the missing specimen are? $50k+ at least I’d say.

Another thread was made about this theft before this one. I do hope they find the bastards as well as the trees.
