You should have planted some swampies.

I don't trust Bonsai, they are a little shady.

Far out that's some good watering. The trees the kids and I got from you last Christmas are all doing well no styling yet just growing on. [GRINNING FACE WITH SMILING EYES] hope all is well and may see you again between Nov - Jan if time permits on fleeting visits.

Hi all

well I am all set up at Stocklands Shellharbour for 2015 for another 12 days. Just thought about showing you all the set up this year and a little juniper I attacked yesterday while in the shopping centre.
The bush in the first few photos is the starting point, The end result is a little less foliage.

Have a nice Chrissy everyone :tu:

Hi Mason...Just wondering if your still operating out of Bonsai at the Bay...? I'd really love to come and see your stock and hopefully come home with a few of your field grown trees....

Had a fantastic trip down to "Bonsai at the Bay" on the weekend...Met up with Mason and he showed me around his Nursery. Even though its considered to be a small nursery I was really impressed with the potted bonsai on display (great selection of different specimens with plenty to choose from (very reasonably priced...!) He also has pre/semi trained specimens on offer still in training pots as well as some larger ground grown Elms, Figs, tridents, olives, junipers and more............. All in all was a wonderful day and I managed to come home with a Japanese Maple with huge potential.
It's a pleasant drive...only 2- 2 & 1/2 hours from Sydney and believe it's well worth the trip.

I've taken a few pics of the benches....totally forgot to take photos of the larger material (ground grown stock)....Sorry maybe next time...Ha ha

hello ausbonsai members. I have always appreciated the feedback from the ausbonsai community and I was hoping a few of you may be able to run your eyes over my new webpage and give me any feedback. I have not changed my website for over 6 years so I was trying for a fresh look and feel.

any feedback would be greatly appreciated .

Thank you

Mason Keane
