The sale is held once a year around this time. It was a good roll up today so thanks to those who came along I moved nearly all my stock and I think others did ok as well.

Any chance you would kindly show us your prunus.
I arrived at 10:05, did not see any prunus.
You must be there at 10:00 sharp

Ha nah was upset with myself cause I got there 10 past lol

Il post a pic once I remember my Photobucket password and email I used

First piece I saw was the juniper was on first table on the left
(But waited a hole 2mins as I took a quick glance at everything around then bought it quickly
Very happy with it

I then bought the prunus I think from Hard1all or the guy he was next to as there was a very nice elm tree and bird feeder on the table (was 3rd table on the right next to the pots

To be honest wanted to buy the elm but it's my first bonsai so didn't want to kill it

Who would of thought you needed to water bonsai everyday!

Quitting now. Suffering from withdrawal symptoms :lol:
That's why whenever I heard someone bought a prunus, I would over-react :lol:
