It certainly was never a nursery that you would visit to purchase a large diverse range of stock, like Ray's nursery, but her expertise advice and friendly manner was always a pleasure that I enjoyed. And I tried to help out as much over the last few years, purchasing stock for my family members who wanted bonsai already made, and so on from her nursery. They always had a nice range of conifer stock to choose from too.

I style Bonsai naturally, just as they would appear in the wild.

Re: Bonsai Art Bonsai
Rumour killed. I got through to Megumi today, who was out the back working on bonsai.
The nursery is NOT closing down. They are simply moving at the end of the year.

Thanks Grant and Buddyman glad to hear it. Another rumour is that the Koreshoffs are going back into business?

Re: Bonsai Art Bonsai
Wow, I have not heard that, but that would be fantastic. Towards the end of their 5 years of having the nursery open, I never really bought much from them other than a few odds and ends and some stock and pots, as they had very few varieties of stock, but oh my gosh, the personal collection was just a must visit when you went to Ray Nesci's bonsai nursery. Lovely people the Koreshoffs too. It was always a pleasure talking to Dorothy and Deborah. Now that I have children, I would hope that rumour is true. But, your first rumour was not true.marleey73 wrote:Thanks Grant and Buddyman glad to hear it. Another rumour is that the Koreshoffs are going back into business?
