Re: NATIVE BONSAI CLUB
The first meeting of the Native Bonsai Club is on tomorrow night Tuesday September 10th.
This coincided nicely with the Native Bonsai Exhibition at Cranbourne Royal Botanical Gardens yesterday.
There was a nice mix of trees on exhibit with some advanced trees but more importantly some beginners were brave enough to get involved as well.
Lighting was difficult but I managed to get a few photos

Re: NATIVE BONSAI CLUB
Thanks Gerard!
One of the fabulous things about growing bonsai is as you get old and decrepit your trees get old and beautiful

Re: NATIVE BONSAI CLUB
Hi Shane,
Number ten from my count from the start is a fig, there were a couple of weeping Grevillea, Acacia Howittii and that's all I can think of.
It was a good show, hope many where able to attend.
Hope to see you all tomorrow night.

Re: NATIVE BONSAI CLUB
Heard a new club was starting, just for Australian Natives. So thought I'd better stock up a bit...
