brooklyn botanical garden bonsai collection 100 year anniversary

Brooklyn Botanic Garden's bonsai collection is celebrating its 100-year anniversary. The institution and its C.V. Starr Bonsai Museum have launched expanded offerings, added accessible signage, and arranged commemorative activations. The collection, one of the oldest and largest outside Japan, includes over 400 trees that require meticulous care. Horticulture Director Shauna Moore describes bonsai as an invitation to slow down amid New York City's bustle. The garden pioneered bonsai classes in the U.S. after World War II, when returning GIs brought the practice home, and flourished under bonsai master Frank Okamura, who became a key figure in the craft over four decades.
