Had a great hour or so admiring the trees until the kids had enough. Congratulations to the organizers.
Here's a pic of my favourite tree of the day. Never heard about this species until today, but now I want one - Clerodendrum

The Clerodendrum is a popular tree amongst the Queensland bonsai community, and probably only outgunned by Willow leaf figs and Junipers in the exhibition. I love the bark!

Well done Muddy, that tree won the award for the best tree, I believe! It's a bonza bonsai!
