We are the premier bonsai society in the Rocky Mountain region, based in Denver, CO. In association with the Denver Botanic Gardens, we curate the bonsai collection at the Bill Hosokawa Bonsai Pavilion, which includes many specimens collected from and indigenous to Colorado
We are an inclusive community of bonsai practitioners representing every skill level. We focus on education, bonsai cultivation, and advancing interest in bonsai and related arts. RMBS started in 1969 and has a proud lineage to the original Denver Bonsai Club, founded by seven Japanese Americans in 1945. We are a Plant Society affiliate of the Denver Botanic Gardens and a member of Bonsai Clubs International and the American Bonsai Society.
Our mission is to advance the appreciation of, inspire interest in, and educate about the art of bonsai.
We provide bonsai education and public exhibits that help people connect with nature, learn hands‑on horticultural skills, and experience bonsai as living art within an inclusive community setting.
