Nice score Gerard
How much would you be asking for one? I am very interested but I will have to check with the minister for war and finances.

Re: Truckload of buxus
Hi Gerard
I am still interested in picking up 1 or 2 of these. I only have a sedan so I dont think I could squeeze any more in.
I could be there about 13:30, if thats ok by you. I checked the address out on google and I see there is heaps of parking out the back
Thank you so much

That is OK, I am here (at the shop) from 9 till 5. Trees are at the rear of the shop which can be accessed from the market car park.

Re: Truckload of buxus
Thank you again Gerard.
Im a bit shy and it was a bit of a overload having all those trees to choose from but Gerard was great with his advise and I got to meet a few other members quickly.
Your Azalea was breathtaking Gerard. My wife commented about the flowers before she left to go shopping but I couldn't take my eyes of the nabari

Re: Truckload of buxus
Wow Gerard, what an amazing offer! I'd take them all if I wasn't on the other side of the country! Still, what a great offer!
Have a question? The AusBonsai Wiki most likely has the answer!

Re: Truckload of buxus
Good to meet you today Gerard, thanks for the two free tree's.
As discussed I'll give the roots a haircut, let one go for a while and maybe Shohin the other.
I'm hoping that I can do something good with these as a sign of respect for where you collected them from.
