NOVEMBER 2023
Sadly, we announce that David
W. Fukumoto, president and founder of Fuku-Bonsai
Inc., passed away peacefully on November 4,
2023 in Hilo, Hawai'i. He was 83 years old.
David is an internationally
respected practitioner, educator, and
authority on bonsai and penjing. He is the
leading exponent of True Indoor Bonsai,
utilizing proven houseplants, trained in the
bonsai manner. He contributed to many
organizations related to bonsai,
agriculture, and the Hawai’i visitor
industry. His vision of the Fuku-Bonsai
Center was realized in Keauhou, Kona in
1992. Although it was well received, damage
to the core business from a defective
fungicide necessitated its closing in 1994.
His decades of effort helped
expand, document, and share bonsai knowledge
and philosophy. He helped to build community
in the USA and internationally. He leaves a
legacy of creativity, prolific writings, and
many beautiful trees.
Mahalo and Aloha-
Fuku-Bonsai and the Fukumoto
Family
