“Caz, you’re an excellent teacher, super generous with your knowledge and you push me with my wiring . I’m privileged to live near you and get to go to your workshops as often as I do.”

Ange Bonsai Pots

“Recommended. After a winter of weekly 121’s two years ago, my confidence and knowledge has been taken to another level. I still do occasional 121’s and learn something new every time. Privileged to have Caz as my teacher.”

Kenneth Mitchell

“Caz Bonsai is one of the most popular guest artists we’ve ever had at our club workshops. She is equally comfortable with all levels of experience and material.”

About

Caz Bonsai

Caz Bonsai

Caz has been working with bonsai since her teens, beginning in local clubs and gradually progressing through decades of learning, experimentation, and collaboration with some of the most highly regarded artists in the field.

She’s known for her clear, honest teaching style and deep care for both people and trees. Her work has been recognised at major UK bonsai exhibitions, and she remains passionate about sharing her knowledge and encouraging others—particularly underrepresented voices in the bonsai world.

Caz is especially known for her work with pines and junipers, but her practice spans a wide range of native and non-native species, each approached with the same quiet precision and thoughtful attention.
