Weekend in Sydney

Post by Pearso »

Hi All,

I'll be in sydney for the Gardening Australia show later this month, if i have time to go to one Bonsai Nursery in sydney which one should i go too? Any sugestions would be greatly appericated. I guess i should add a little context i'm a beginner and would be looking for good quality entry tools and starter plants to get me going as the weather warms up. I particular like junipers, any suggestions would be great.

Thank

It really depends on where in sydney you will be...

Hi Pearso, that's easy.....Leong Kwong at Bonsai South in Caringbah. You will have junipers coming out of your ears!! :D Admitedly though he is a little short on the stainless stock right now but you can always ring him in advance and see what he has. If he does'nt have, he can usually get it out of this stock warehouse.

Ray has a wider selection of Species and is a bit cheaper in his trees, Leong is closer and I think has nicer unstyled stock. Ray does have some great privits and maples if they are your thing. I got a great Azalea from him.

My $150 bucks worth from last visit.... :D
Whilst walking through the forest of Bonsai Myths, I found a single small tree.
From it I learned all I needed to know.
