Can anyone enlighten me as to where one acquires such stock as in the photos above?? I'd kill to get my hands on some stock like that??

Bonsai south if your ever in NSW is the place to go for advanced Juni and pine stock IMO

Hey mate, that one was actually grown from a cutting if I remember rightly. 15 years in the ground I think Is extremely difficult to find stock like that, the only real way for us to get it is by getting REALLY lucky, or by just growing it yourself. We don't have much stock of this level over here, not for general sale at least

Has inspired me to get a few cuttings and bang them in the ground

Must say that I am very happy with the transformation. I grew this from a $2 cutting I bought from another member of BSWA 15 years ago. I only did some raw shaping. Feed with plenty of dynamic lifter. Has been in this pot for over 10 years.

A nice creation from some fairly ordinary-looking material. Shows what imagination and experience can do. Thanks for posting.

He picked a tree that had been looked over by a few other artists previously, so it was very ballsy of him, but I think it turned out quite nice in the end. Couple more years and it'll be a very decent tree i think Really loved his moss job as well actually, i've seen him do it on a few tree's on youtube, and was cool to see one up close... i know its only moss, but i love it

The second tree he worked was of much better stock, so when I can finally get those photos posting you'll see a much more refined tree

[Jason]

The pictures from Bjorn's second demo can be found here: http://s28.photobucket.com/user/Denaz/l ... ion%202015

No idea why it won't let me post them, it lets me post the first picture, then the rest just error out despite them meeting the upload requirements Better then nothing

For anyone interested in his own take on the last few weeks, with pics...

I’m finally winding down my month-long teaching tour through Australia. In fact, as I write this, I’m sitting in a hotel room in tropical Cairns, resting up for the last two evenings of bonsai work. It’s been an incredible opportunity to visit with some truly enthusiastic bonsai folks in this part of the world, and I’m forever indebted to those of you who made it all happen.....
