Liz Clarke e.a. (see p. 1 above) are not required to reply to our questions. Therefore it is no use to ask them. But we can write to her, to state our reservations in an objective way. I did and I am far from the only one.
Bonsai matters a lot to us, and the NBPCA matters to thousands more. Let the decision makers in the P.S. be aware of it and not bypass those on whom success depends to a high degree.

So are you able to share Liz Clarke's email address or contact details with us Lisa ? From the looks of the number of pages this topic is up to a lot of members would like to express their opinion to her :idea:

Im thinking the biggest danger to the trees at the collection these days are the busses of children that visit each day. You would need a riot squad to keep them safe from my kids school :palm:
It's too bad your in such a hurry cause the stories I could tell you, Bushels and baskets of stories, hole crates full of stories. But if you can spare a moment I will tell you one story.

I am not really sure of the standing of posting a third parties email address to the forum so if you want to email liz.clarke then here is the first bit of it from lisa

Fixed the spelling thanks, but being publicly available is different than us publishing it,
