We help our members create and grow bonsai in Southern Manitoba

The Bonsai Society of Winnipeg was organized in the early 1980s by a group of enthusiasts who wanted to get together to share their experiences, to learn from each other, to pool their resources, and to enjoy the companionship of others with a common interest.


Members of Bonsai Winnipeg can join a private Facebook group where we can post questions, images and other items that help our members with their bonsai practice. Ask to join here and then please wait for an administrator to approve your participation.


The Bonsai Society of Winnipeg is a member of BCI (Bonsai Clubs International) and maintains ties with other bonsai clubs in Canada, the USA and around the world. Visit us on Facebook for more photos of our activities and events.

Our Grow Zone

Classified as Growing Zone 3, southern Manitoba's climate can be a challenge when growing and collecting bonsai. There are many excellent sources for learning about bonsai, but if you live in growing zone 3, our club can help you learn how to deal with our climate so you too can grow bonsai successfully, indoors and out.

Bonsai Primer

Which are the best trees to train and style as bonsai? Where can I get these trees? Where do I keep these trees? Read our articles on growing bonsai in Southern Manitoba, history of bonsai, bonsai tools, bonsai pots, bonsai potting mix, and tips on photographing bonsai.
