Hi bodhi :tu: I didn't make omyia as we only stayed in tokyo for short time.
The place with all shohin was in kyoto they were all crammed into this fellows back yard . Some of the other shots of bonsai are from an art museum in Hiroshima and the best ones I saw were near Nagano in a small village, the name slips my mind at the moment :oops:

Sorry about the quality of the photos and the delay in posting more of them . They were all taken on my phone and scrolling through hundreds of shots to find some good ones to post is a bit of a mission. :palm:

Thanks for the update mugen. Makes me jealous! Which nurseries did you visit?
After roughly 20 years of growing bonsai, I reckon I might just be starting to get the hang of it...
