Just a few weeks away from the bimer show.
I just repotted this lepto petersonii into a pot i was given when i did a demo down south. It is an aussie made pot, but don't know the potter's name.
I think it suits it.
I hope to see the brisbane locals there.Image

I have been removing wire and applying lime sulphur to the dead wood of this club shimpaku that will be the raffle tree for our show this weekend. This was a demo tree from 2 years ago.



I hope to see the brisbane ausbonsai members there.

I had the kids sport on this morning so missed the bulk of the sales :crybye:
Finally got there in the arvo & the trees were wonderful. The Clero above got runner-up.
My favorite was the black (?) pine over rock in the shallow pot posted above. The whole combination was spot on.

Thanks AG and Bougyfan, excellent to see.

That pine in the flat tray ... yum. And the cassie raft .... I like it with it’s slender trunks but I wish I could see it in the flesh ... the base of the raft looks quite conspicuous and interesting in the composition and I can’t quite make out how the soil seems to be holding in the pot - it looks like it has an inch high vertical fall right at the pot’s edge. Perhaps it’s a trick of the light but I am intrigued.

Also - am I correct in that the shimpaku is a Phoenix graft?
