Guess the size, pot and species to win!

Post by Steven »

G'day again,

Following on from Guess the size and win and Guess the size and species to win!, here is another guessing comp.
The first person who correctly guesses the species, pot maker and size of this tree will win 20 Japanese Black Pine seeds and some AusBonsai stickers/pin badges. Sorry but due to quarantine laws, if you are in TAS or WA you will only win an AusBonsai sticker and pin.

• Only 1 guess per member.
• Height should be quoted in millimeters and is to be judged from the top rim of pot to the tip of the tree.

Regards,
Steven

Once again, thanks goes to Scott Roxburgh for the seeds!
