Guys just a heads up i will be planning to reduce my collection over the winter months . Most things will be for sale except a few of my trees that i have got attachment to. Shohin size to 90cm. I will have a few advanced black pine for sale as well as a very old red pine. DM me for info as too many trees to simply post here .

Perth... way?

Given the sizes are you contemplating postage?

Asking here, so others can see the answer.

Hi Matthew, sorry to hear that you're reducing your collection.

Would love to see what you have up for sale but can't seem to DM you.

Is there any other way outside of AB I could contact you?

Very nice trees and good value. It's a shame I exceeded my bonsai budget months ago.
