Ray Nesci Bonsai Nursery

Amazing nursery for all your bonsai needs. It’s a bit of a travel but we’ll worth checking it out if you’re into bonsais. Prices are really affordable and there are plenty of bonsais in different growth cycles. Plenty of parking on the premise and it’s quite a sight to see. This is a family owned business and they are very knowledgeable about the different types of bonsais and how to care for them as well as provide advice and tools or accessories to maintain them.

Big selection for Bonsai if you are looking for a big variety. It will be similar to the ones they sell at Flower Power. Ray is really helpful. He gave us a quick run through on where things are around the nursery. If you are a novice Bonsai artist it will be best to come here so you have a choice on what to get. Ranges from $4.50 all the way to the thousands depending on your budget. Will come back again. Thank you Ray!

Best bonsai nursery!
Dropped off my bonsai for repotting as it started looking sad over 2 months ago. Picked it up today and it’s looking more wonderful than ever!!
Staff are so friendly and packed with bonsai care information.

Great nursery and helpful staff, Clinton and Ray definitely kicked started this hobby of mine 3 years ago and it's still going strong!

Hidden gem in Bonsai world. Plenty to choose from and very friendly staffs. I believe I will go there more often as a beginner.

been going to ray for 10 years truly knows his work and a gentleman as are his staff also hes fam who are all a pleasure and nothing is to hard for this man

Good selection of bonsais and well-cared for. Came on a day when they were doing demonstrations and were showing off their best bonsais. It was perfect and we’re hooked. Will be coming again and hoping to do classes soon :)

I've visited all the reputable Bonsai Nurserys in the wider Hills/Hawkesbury/Nthrn Beaches areas during my time and Ray's is without doubt my go to. (I do miss Bonsai Koreschoff though....was more of an exhibition than retail nursery!) At Ray's you will find....
- comprehensive range of tools, pots, literature and equipment
- great range and variety (2nd to none) of trees in every stage of development
- every tree has a price marked on it (unless worn etc), so doesn't matter what car you rock up in; same price for everyone (unlike at least one other nursery)....yes, it's a thing.
- whatever advice Ray or Clinton need to give you, you will get it at the time of your visit (unlike one other nurseryman who instructs his staff/teachers not to say too much so customers keep paying for further visits)....yes, it's a thing...that was first hand from one of the teachers.
- very reasonable/fair pricing across all size trees and in reality some absolute bargains in terms of mature/large/advanced stock and even more so if you compare to other nurseries....save yourself the time and effort I say :)
- you are treated in a friendly and warm manner (whether you're spending $10 or $1000) unlike some nurserymen who think you're not worth their time unless there's $$$$ in it for them (that's how it is these days)
- open MOST days of the year
- sometimes it is hard tracking someone down (Family run business) but there's plenty to sight see while you're waiting!
- soft drinks/water/juice poppers(?) for sale so you don't dehydrate

Well worth a visit, and no, not on the payroll, just appreciate the place!!

Ray is AMAZING.

He is kind, knowledgeable, funny and very enthusiastic (especially at his age, if he doesn’t mind me saying this!).

He holds free classes to educate the youth, multiple times a year, is very helpful if you are new to Bonsai, and a great guy to have a conversation with.

Based on what other people say about him, my experience is very similar to all the other people I have spoken too :)

Go Ray!

Massive thanks to Ray and his sister.

They are passionate and authentic, and were a great help in helping me find the perfect gift. I will definitely be a returning customer!

Love this place. My ‘go to’ Bonsai nursery when I am in the area. Lots of variety in stock and always great to chat to Clinton. The staff are always helpful. Recommended.

This has to be the best nursery in Sydney for me. A wide range of trees with very good prices. Nice range of pots and other wares. Very nice staff working there as well. After visiting a range of Sydney Nurseries this has to be the best. Great work.

Professional and Practical advice by highly skilled and knowledgeable Bonsai Expert! Ray Nesci is an absolute pleasure to deal with and an Amazing asset to not just the Bonsai community but to all plant enthusiasts. Fantastic range of both plants and accessories at Great Prices!

Ray is awesome! Very knowledgeable and you can see his love for plants. Good selection and good price.

Many selections and very kind people

Really enjoyed the visit, our first time to a bonsai nursery. There were so many bonsai plants. I'm feeling inspired to start this hobby properly!

Looking forward to coming back to get some more bonsai plants in the near future!

The staff there are very friendly and knowledgeable. The Bonsai trees are a great source of inspiration and they have a wide range of species to work with.

Ray's Bonsai nursery is very family oriented. He gives good feedback on how to look after plants & is very helpful in providing good service to everyone 👍

Open all year round, pretty good selection of established and new plants/trees. Good prices, expert knowledge and super friendly, always willing to spend time with you to answer any questions.

Great nursery for bonsai enthusiasts - beginners included. Great selection of established bonsai and starter plants and some lovely pots at very reasonable prices.
