Introduction to Edo Plant
Since 1980 Edo Plant imports Bonsai and all relative products
as well as materials for Japanese Gardens from the Far East.
The company's philosophy of "Quality above price" has given us
a special place in this trade. Edo Bonsai has reached a high standard,
not in the least for its trendsetting and innovating point of view.
We import from every country in the Far East; from Japan to Indonesia.
And we export all over Europe. Our experience in packing gives you the
guarantee of a good arrival of the goods. Packing is free of charge.
In the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and France we deliver - free of charge - with
our own transport. For all other countries in Europe we arrange door to door transport.
You receive a full guarantee on our Bonsai.
If you want to explore your own activities we can support you.
In the Far East we have our own nurseries and offices.
If you consider of importing directly yourself we can assist you.
Our experiences guarantee you a good result.
We invite you to do business with us.

Ed de Groot, owner and founder of Edo Plant, also known under the
name of "Edo-San" or "Mr. Edo", started with Bonsai in 1972.
That year he bought - as beginning bonsai lover - 14 bonsai trees.
Then he started to visit every exhibition, workshop, demonstration
and bonsai specialist in Europe, the United States and Japan.
He was a personal advisor for the Queen of the Netherlands;
her father Prince Bernhard; the former minister-president of Spain,
Mr. Felipe Gonzalez; the Prince of Qatar and many, many others.

He is considered to be a Bonsai pioneer who was so lucky to make his work
out of his hobby. Never the less, he also made his mistakes and does not feel
ashamed of it. As his motto is: "If you do not try, you never succeed".
The European Suiseki Society started with his personal support.
Not so long ago he started, together with his partner Rahayu, a high quality
Bonsai Nursery in Indonesia. Offcourse to earn some money, some day, but
also to help exploring the Bonsai standard of Indonesian Tropical species.
Many times Edo-San is travelling. But he always tries to keep in a regular
contact with his business associates.
