Fluorine: I will have 2 callistemons, 1 callistemon group, 1 banksia, 1agonis flexulosa, 1 lillypilly and several junipers. I also have a very large brachychiton rupestris which I have just pruned back hard and it is currently shooting for sale, but was not intending to have a sale day as I can't lift it - if you are interested.

Looking forward to seeing the black lines. They were sensational last year, but didn't have enough money to buy.

G'day all,

16 tables are now booked and I am aware of some very old and high quality trees that will be available on the day. Some of which will be sold way below cost as the owner wants to drastically reduce his collection. :tu:

There are still a few tables left for anyone interested. Please contact me for details.

Regards,
Steven

I have resigned to the fact that March will be a poor month for me as i will most likely be spending all my money here.

Also, will there be nametags so we can put faces to usernames?

I don't trust Bonsai, they are a little shady.

Great idea, I'll have some labels there for members to write their AB username on and wear around.

G'day all,

We've now got 18 tables booked including a very experienced grower from Melbourne who is bringing some of his tree's to Sydney to share the joy :tu:

Momentum is growing with a little under 4 weeks to go...

Hi Steven,
I plan on coming to the Market Day with my mum on that day, when it says "10:00am to 2:00pm (no buyers will be permitted into the sales area prior to 10am)". Does that mean I have to arrive before 10am as guest?

G'day Evo,

No, this means that the general public can't access the sales area until 10am. You can arrive earlier but you will need to wait outside the gates. This is to keep it as fair as possible for all buyers.

We've now got 20 sales tables booked and some very unique and high quality stock will be for sale.

Regards,
Steven

G'day, with a little over 2 weeks to go we now have 21 sales tables booked.

John D who sold a trailer load of 40 year old Black Pines last year will be coming again and this time with some very old Ficus and a few of his best pines (the ones he previously wanted to keep).

There should be some really high quality stock and mature trees on offer as well as numerous sellers who are reducing their collections by selling trees at very reasonable prices.

I'm waiting on confirmation of a mobile coffee shop who will also be selling light food. :tu:

Regards,
Steven
