WooHoo less than a week away!

and in case you missed Zyggy's update ...
Zyggy R wrote:Hi Bonsai Nuts!

Waverley this year has two new displays, Minis and Bonsai in a Basket!

A number of our members wanted to show "little" bonsai so we have created a display section just for these gems! Not to be missed!

Our display room features trees from ALL of our members, novice through to master, no judging, just a display of our little green children for you to enjoy!

Then earlier in the year 3 of our members participated in the RHSV hanging basket competition new section "Bonsai in a Basket" this was part of the Melbourne International Flower and Garden show. One of our displays picked up multiple awards!

We have an extensive sales area, Bonsai Art is supplying starters and progressed plants, Gosing Trading has Chinese pots, wire and tools, Club members are offering their own creations, JoAnn will have some of her unique pots on offer.

Over the weekend we will have a number of demonstrations, potting, propagating, styling, etc.

I'll be there, Zyggy.
Cheers, Ryan

One of the fabulous things about growing bonsai is as you get old and decrepit your trees get old and beautiful

True that Joannm. I had to drag her away. On the way home she was eying off trees on the side of the road :palm:

We both love the out doors and this is fun for both of us. Every time my wife sees a new tree in the yard Jasmine says " Oh, that old thing, Dad's had that tree for ages". Then just stands there and smiles. Always room for 1 more.
