Thanks for the photos James. It's just under 2 hrs from my place. Is it the Towooba flower festival next week? I might go and have a look during the school holidays.
Always we hope someone else has the answer.

Japanese Gardens QLD

Hey James. I went to the Toowoomba Japanese garden today. It was a bit wet so by the time we got there it was a bit too late to find our way to the bonsai show (I didn't write the event's address down and had some hard time looking around for it :( )
Anyway, the garden is beautiful and I manage to some pics too.
Thanks for letting me know about this garden.

I guess it's JBP too jamie. They have heaps of flowers and cones. Wondering if we could collect seeds from them when they mature? Oh, I would love my back yard to look like that too jamie :)
