Really happy with my first purchase…
Really happy with my first purchase from Yorkshire Bonsai.
Very good communication, they asked me whether I'd be willing to accept a substitute for the pot I ordered, I agreed and I'm delighted with the alternative. Better than the one I chose myself!
Good packaging, and prompt delivery.

Little bit of shrinkage but otherwise excellent.
Bought a 37cm x 29 cm bowl from them. The bowl is fantastic, delivered on time but with one small problem.
It seems to have shrunk a bit in the post as it now measures 36cm x 28cm.
And, customer service. Didn't have any significant interaction with them but the website is really fit for purpose, and clear and easy to use but I didn't like being asked to leave a tip to show my appreciation. We're not American, well not yet until Trump decides to buy our small collection of islands, so no tip this time, otherwise well recommended.

Thank you for the great review—and for giving us a chuckle! We’ll have a word with the postie about the mysterious bowl shrinkage 😄 Really pleased to hear you were happy with the bowl overall and found the website easy to use. And no worries at all about the tip (it is an automated option) your kind words are more than enough.
Thanks again for the support, and hope to see you back soon!

5 Stars is Not Enough! 😁
5 Stars is not enough! Honestly the service I received was amazing! Nothing was too much trouble and they listened to me. Saved my beloved bonsai and took such good care of her. Cannot recommend Yorkshire Bonsai enough! Have just purchased another bonsai to add to my collection and I will definately be purchasing more for them!! 100 out of 10! 😁

Flowers out Bonsai in!
Fed up with spending a fortune on fresh flowers for Valentine’s Day only to see them in the bin a week or so later, so thought I’d go Bonsai!
As a complete beginner I knew very little but was given excellent advice. My requirements and budget were listened to and an appropriate tree was selected.
Delivery and packaging was excellent and my wife’s beautiful tree arrived in excellent condition.
She’s happy - I’m happy, and I fully expect to be buying from Yorkshire Bonsai again soon!

Beautiful plant!
The Chinese Elm I picked was to be selected by the nursery, so no control over the actual specimen, but the tree I received was absolutely beautiful and very close in shape to the one displayed online. Also beautifully potted up and packed professionally and securely. Delighted with my purchase!

Great Company & Independent Advice
I initially read their online help pages and then contacted Yorkshire Bonsai directly as I was worried about a tree I had received as a present (purchased elsewhere). Paul was very quick to reply and his advice has been incredibly valuable. A lot of the generic online tips you read are not wholly correct, each tree is different, and I found this out with Paul's help. I now have the information I need to repair my tree's stress and hopefully it will go from strength to strength. Their trees look amazing and I would have no qualms purchasing one, knowing I would have excellent customer care if needed.

Great service and great quality tree!
Really happy with the service provided by Paul and the quality of the bonsai trees at Yorkshire Bonsai!
I initially brought a Chinese elm from a different company, however I wasn’t too happy with the tree. So I contacted Paul at Yorkshire Bonsai, and he was really helpful and ensured I got a bonsai tree I was happy with. Now I have a beautiful tree which I cannot wait to gift! I wish I went with them to begin with! If you’re thinking of making a purchase, do it!

Absolutely brilliant company to order my first bonsai from. Had to idea how it would be delivered and despite Royal Mail sending it to the wrong sorting office and delivering it two days late, the tree was in excellent condition. I might well be hooked on starting a collection!!

This company are a delight to deal with.
I have been so pleased with Yorkshire Bonsai. I think they have been lovely to deal with as if you are speaking with a friend on their chat bot. Also the items came exactly as expected on the day with the most fantastically carefully packed box. I’m very pleased with my pots (one is to follow as it was out of stock).
I needed advice about buying some other items & I got it very quickly, so I could include them in my order.
The Photos of the pots are true to life and give a good indication of the size etc which is so important when buying on line.
I would totally recommend this company
