Hoka-en Webshop is now Bonsai Shop!
August 2025
We are excited to announce a new partnership between Bonsai Empire and Lodder Bonsai.
Bonsai Shop was founded in 2004 and became the first Dutch bonsai webshop. From 2014 onwards, the webshop was further developed in collaboration with Bonsai Empire and Deshima Bonsai (founded by Teunis Jan Klein). Sadly, with the passing of Teunis Jan, Deshima Bonsai came to an end.
Now, Bonsai Shop and Lodder Bonsai are joining forces for a new chapter. In the coming weeks, we will phase out our webshop on hoka-en.nl. All bonsai and related materials will now be available at bonsaishop.nl.
This new collaboration allows us to further expand our passion for bonsai and serve our customers even better.
We sincerely thank all customers of the Hoka-en.nl webshop for their trust and look forward to welcoming you soon at Bonsai Shop or in person at Lodder Bonsai / Hoka-En Bonsai Studio.
