Looking to buy yamadori

I’ve purchased quite a few trees in the last 12 months and what I’ve come to learn is that collectors with the best materials tend to not post them online. Or rather they do not have to. They also prefer to sell to people they know. So reach out to the main collectors; Randy, Dan, Steve, Todd, etc. and visit their nurseries/place of business to be on the shortlist of who they’d reach out when they get new materials.

As for shipping, very few sellers will figure shipping out for you but there are definitely services that’ll white glove deliver trees to you. Best part is the courier will remove the liability from the seller and you as they carry insurance.
Thank you VERY much. This was beyond helpful. I don’t think I’d qualify for those guy’s lists as I wouldn’t even want to fumble that level of material. I’m not ready. But I appreciate your response. Genuinely
 
In all fairness, there’s not a whole lot of folks purchasing 3 and 4 trees at a time in one go. My initial question in another thread was out of general curiosity. I will give you props tho, uncle C has some damn nice cypresses and you got some good ones! 😉
That’s not my issue boss. I like bald cypress, if you saw my backyard you’d know that. I have about 50 of them. But how my purchases make people feel is completely none of my business. But thank you. I do appreciate that! I just got two more too lol

As a fellow tree hoarder I recognize my own kind. I’m a bald cypress hoarder and mad scientist too 😂
 
If you’re not looking for the very top tier yamadori, you probably should reach out to them still. The very best materials tend to go to the professionals but they have plenty of “mid level” material that they collect as well. I’ve visited/met all of them and there’s plenty for sure! Come to think of it, Andy from golden arrow bonsai(he has a website) actually does ship them and has quite a few nice trees. Todd has a ton of raw trees too that are very nice level without being absurdly expensive/advanced.

Understood. I will do that. I have browsed golden arrow. I’m pretty internet savvy. Hence me hoping the forum would hold some uncovered treasures lol. I appreciate your help. I will reach out to those guys and see what I can uncover. Thanks again!
 
I have a friend who sells bonsai out of his home, not Yamadori though, some what in more advance stages, prices are decent. He is in Laurel MD, Pm me if you are interested.

Thank you very much. I appreciate you reaching out. I will for sure PM you in the morning. Thanks again!
 
Might also consider a drive to Nature's Way in PA. He has a lot of collected stuff, some of it from the aforementioned collectors and doesn't post most of what he has on the internet.

You'll find most vendors can't post all the trees they have available online. It's too time consuming to keep up with when you have trees to care for. So it pays to contact them.
 
So you don't think it's odd that someone with a brand new account is doing nothing but asking to buy trees and then you get all mad at me. Hmmm, trying to make me look bad to deflect what you're up to?

I’m not mad at you you weirdo. If you have a bonsai collection you have to buy trees. LOL. I will also never do anything besides ask to buy trees. That’s what I’m here for. To buy trees. What I’m not here for is to converse with people such as yourself that have nothing better to do but worry about what the next person is doing with their own money. You my friend are a lunatic and need a life. And again, think it’s odd ALL you want. your opinion means absolutely zero and holds no weight nor will it dictate what I do or do not do. Read and comprehend

What could I possibly be “up to”? By the way? I’m curious LOL. I purchased 4 individual trees. Now what crime are you suspecting me of officer scorpion?

I also just bought two more HUGE BC’s from Cajun this morning. Bringing my total to 6 trees purchased from him. Does that hurt your heart? Where does that put your investigation? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I couldn’t imagine having the time or the space in my head to harass someone online that is doing nothing besides buying trees and try to interrogate them about their intentions like you are the gatekeeper of all bonsai morals lol. You are a JOKE
