Escort "Small Bonsai" Hot Selling "Big Market"

Every winter is the peak season for bonsai exports. At the bonsai planting base of Liutong Horticulture in Hangzhou, staff are carefully waiting to load bonsai such as holly, red maple, and water fir onto trucks. After passing the on-site inspection by customs, these carefully cultivated and designed bonsai will soon be exported to the European market across the ocean.
The export of bonsai not only needs to meet the plant quarantine requirements of the export destination country, but also seize the opportunity in logistics timeliness, even packaging and appearance design are also a subject of study. From selecting seedlings, screening cultivation media, to root washing and disinfection, pest control, pruning and carving, it takes more than ten steps and a whole year to complete the finished bonsai product.
Our bonsai is mainly sold to European countries such as the Netherlands, Italy, and France, which have high requirements for enterprise qualifications, product quality, and pest control. If any problems are found after export, it will cause us great losses, "said Zhu Jian, the person in charge of Hangzhou Liutong Horticulture Co., Ltd." Fortunately, we have the continuous guidance of customs experts, which allows us to confidently explore the international market. By 2025, our bonsai exports will continue to grow, with a quantity of over 260000 plants
In order to better promote bonsai and other nursery products to the international market, Hangzhou Customs has sorted out and collected relevant technical trade measures and regulatory standards from major trading countries, organized targeted training, guided enterprises to standardize planting management, and did a good job in disease and pest control. At the same time, in response to the demand for fast customs clearance of exported seedlings, we will open up a "green channel" for exporting agricultural products, implement a "7 × 24 hour" scheduled inspection, and achieve on-demand inspection and release of qualified seedlings, ensuring "zero delay" in the export of bonsai and other seedlings, and ensuring product quality through efficient customs clearance.
According to statistics, in 2025, Hangzhou Customs will supervise the export of 1937 batches of bonsai and other seeds and seedlings, a year-on-year increase of 10.75%.
