Our Mission
At Riajuu Bonsai, our passion for Bonsai started when our founder purchased a small Bonsai tree in a store. From there, we began our journey to learn everything we could about Bonsai and started Riajuu Bonsai to share our love for it with others.

About Riajuu Bonsai
Our History
I began my bonsai journey in earnest when I relocated to southwest Florida in 2018.
Having retired from the software industry after a 30 year career I now devote the majority of my time to the art of bonsai.
Whether you're interested in developing a hobby, or just acquire a tree for viewing, or curious about the horticulture of bonsai, we can help you!
For those of you curious about the meaning of "riajuu": The term is often used as a slang to describe a person who is living his or her life to the fullest. That's us, and we hope that's you as well!
The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now.

From Some of Our Clients
From Palma B:
" I've always been curious about Bonsai and Dean 'pulled back the curtain'. The trees I've purchased from him are great. His maintenance program has nurtured them, allowing me to learn enough to enjoy them even more than when I first acquired them."
From Joe P:
"We enjoy gardening with the usual assortment of plants, shrubs, and trees. The addition of several trees from Dean has added a beautiful dimension and enhanced our viewing pleasure."
From Mike L:
"As a Bonsai teacher and enthusiast, I can tell you Dean's growth in the art has been excellent. He has developed some truly great looking trees!"
From Rhonda D:
" When I purchased a couple of trees from Dean, my husband and I decided to maintain them ourselves. But Dean's always available to take a look at a problem or offer up some advice."

About the Art of Bonsai...
Whether painstakingly grown from seed, collected in the wild, or acquired in any stage of development, the care and growth of a bonsai tree need not be mysterious or difficult.
The journey might begin with a juniper purchased at a big box or home improvement store, or any tree selected at a nursery.
