Stopped by today to get advice about what to do with my very amateur attempt at bonsai. Was met with extremely friendly, kind, and helpful people. Beautiful bonsai for sale as well as all the necessary things to get into the art. Will be booking a class for my friend's birthday. Cannot wait!! read more

I recently visited Miami Bonsai Specialists, located at 15380 SW 232nd St, Miami, FL 33170, and it was a fantastic experience. The place is run by Glenn Hilton and Lourdes Arnaez, a husband-and-wife team with over 35 years of experience in bonsai. Glenn, who is also the president of the Bonsai Society of Miami, brings a wealth of knowledge, and it's clear that both he and Lourdes are truly passionate about what they do. First time I visited this place, I appreciated time that Glenn spent with me showing me around and explaining what their specialty along with one of the best things they offer is their Saturday morning bonsai classes. Whether you're a complete beginner or have some experience, these classes give you the chance to work on your own plants or practice on ones they provide. I have five Desert Rose plants that are 3 to 10 years old, and while I've watched countless YouTube videos on how to repot them as bonsai, I didn't want to take any chances and risk losing them. The class was the perfect way to get hands-on experience with expert guidance. If you enjoy gardening, have plants at home, or have ever been interested in bonsai, this is the place to go. The classes are also a great couples' activity learning something new together makes for a fun and unique experience. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

I was blown away! Visiting here on my vacation, I was not prepared for how amazing this place is! It feels more like an art museum or an art gallery than a nursery. Maybe I'm biased because I love plants? I swear that some of the bonsai must have been older than me (43 years). I felt truly spoiled by the owner, for walking around the nursery and answering all my questions. You could definitely feel the passion that they have towards their bonsai business. I 100% recommend a visit here if you are at all interested in gardening or bonsai, or just want to do something outside of Miami off the beaten path. There are also a lot of wonderful farms and fruit stands in this area to stock up on freshies (fresh fruit and vegetables). Thank you to the owners read more

A big thank you to Lourdes for being such a great help picking out my first Bonsai. She was patient and honest about what bonsai would best fit my lifestyle. She even added wires and labels to my bonsai free of charge. They have a wide selection of Bonsai's and you're sure to find exactly what you're looking for! She is extremely knowledgeable and her husband is President of the Bonsai club here in Miami. They are both so sweet and really have a passion for what they do. They also provide classes for how to take care of your Bonsai. Lourdes does the class in Spanish and her husband (Glenn) does it in English. read more

Excellent service and lots of bonsai! The lady will fix and re-pot your selection and will give you tips on how to care. Will visit again.

I discovered this fabulous bonsai expert through a friend. If you're looking for a huge variety of bonsái trees, creatively designed by a passionate artist at moderate prices, then this is the place to go. The owner Lourdes was very patient with this newbie who was there to buy a bonsai for a birthday gift. My advice is that you do your research before you go, knowing about bonsáis will help you and Lourdes. By the way, if you're interested in becoming a bonsai expert, she offers classes. read more

I had the pleasure to meet Lourdes and we had some good conversation about trees and some experience we both been through in the Bonsai world. I bought a very nice Fukien Tea Tree and a few old/small used Pots. I was there for about 1hr and I felt like nothing. She was very welcoming and even gave a rooted cutting from one of her Bougainvilleas I will be moving to Florida/Homestead and definitely will definitely be back. They offer various sizes and shapes from non expensive to some spicy ones just like anywhere else. She is also starting to make her own Bonsai Pots and from what I saw, she's got a bright and busy future ahead of her. Bottom of line, if you're into or trying to get involved with the Bonsai art and you're in the area. Don't think twice, this is THE place. read more

Miami Bonsai Specialists - Here's a few I bought from today - Nurseries & Gardening Near Me - Miami, Florida

My boyfriend and I stopped by this past Sunday because we want to start our own personal bonsai collection together. When we got there Lourdes was just opening up shop and encouraged us to look around. It started raining a lot so we hung out under the canopy and talked with Lourdes and Glenn about the different trees they had. Once the rain cleared up some Glenn walked us around and explained to us about his different trees he's been working on since he started bonsai. Both of them were very knowledgeable about bonsais, and are very kind to those just beginning their own bonsai journey.We ended up leaving with our first two trees, a jade and lantana. 11/10 recommend coming here for they're are very hard workers and deserve the appreciation. (With a very beautiful personal collection of their own) read more
