[TRADE] The Complete Book of Bonsai - Harry Tomlinson

Post by JaseH »

I have two copies of this book, only need one. So if anyone is local to me(Melbourne S.E.) and would like a copy let me know.

Not really after anything in return but if someone has some cuttings or seedlings of something interesting they'd like to trade I'll give them preference! ;)

Also happy to bring it along the next Waverley club meeting.

I can't particularly offer you anything as a complete beginner but it would be a great read if no one else wants it,

Unless you want anything from the gardens in the University of Melbourne, the professors might give me permission to do a little snippy snippy ;)

I do have one of his books, he's good I am always referring to it. Bonsai -The Pocket Encylopedia.
$29.95. Harry is English I think but his book does translate well for Australian conditions. What a nice guy you are. I think he deserves a little bonsai in return. :aussie:

I'm about to start several Japanese Flowering Plum cuttings very soon. Is that a fair enough trade for one of the cutting?

Cant go wrong for that price, it's quite a good book and covers lots of species for bonsai. :tu2:
