Pathway in Eucalyptus Grove

Marcela Ferreira

Marcela's journey into the world of Australian native bonsai began around 2012, following a visit to the Australian Natives as Bonsai Symposium in Canberra. Encouraged by her partner to explore something new, she embraced the challenge with enthusiasm. A spontaneous shopping spree at a native plant nursery soon followed, resulting in forty tube-stock plants finding their way home with her. Over the years, some of these trees have matured into beautifully developed bonsai, many of which have been proudly showcased at club exhibitions.

Marcela’s passion for Australian natives shines through in her eagerness to share her experiences with fellow enthusiasts. She is driven by a mission to inspire even the most hesitant growers to see the incredible potential of native species as bonsai. Her message is simple: these trees are every bit as rewarding as the exotic varieties and deserve a place on every bonsai bench.

In her approach to styling, Marcela blends classical bonsai principles with a deep respect for the natural growth habits of the species she works with. She lets the tree guide her creative process, ensuring that each design celebrates the inherent character of the native species while honoring the time-tested foundations of bonsai artistry.
