Bonsai

Bonsai is the art of shaping, training and cultivating miniature trees in shallow containers. The art can be found all over the world, but had its origins in China and Japan. Some species have the ability to survive for hundreds and even thousands of years. They are highly valued for their beauty and long life.

Sigung John Oliver Peel studied the art of bonsai under the great master John Yosio Naka, at the California Institute of Bonsai and received a teachers certificate. After moving to Muskoka, He began collecting local specimens and has trained and developed an impressive variety of trees, many of which are for sale.

Sigung John is available for demonstrations, lectures and workshops.
