Re: Bonsai Collection For Sale
Brad, I started in 1984 but that does not mean anything as I am a very slow learner. I have around 60 Trees consisting of Figs (Qld small leaf, Benjaminer, Green Island, Nerifolia, Port Jackson, Virens and Tiger Bark) Maple, Juniper (Chinese and Japanese), Jacaranda, Bougainvillea, Star Jasmine, Azalea, Black Pine, Swamp Cypress, Chinese Elm, Zelkova, Buxus and a few others that don't come directly to mind at the moment.

Re: Bonsai Collection For Sale
I see in your profile your fav species is "all", by the looks of the trees you have, i would say that is a fairly accurate statement Jon!Jon Chown wrote:Brad, I started in 1984 but that does not mean anything as I am a very slow learner.

Re: Bonsai Collection For Sale
It must be hard to sell all the things you've put so much time and effort into...
have fun travelling the country mate!
Do you think you will start a collection again once you've finished travelling?
