Fantastic show.
I went yesterday and had a great time.
I picked up some baby maple's to add to my future forest plantation. Very cheap! 5 trees for $25! I'll post some pics later on.
Lots of spectacular trees, my girlfriend came along and couldn't believe the caliber of trees on display.
World class effort.

Sorry, I didn't take any photos as I was only there for about 20-30mins and had to leave as I was not well. I wish I could have stayed as the quality of trees was great and the atmosphere was buzzing. I managed to purchase some young maple stock and a couple of pots and then exit stage left feeling green around the gills.

Unfortunately I don't handle hangovers as well as I used to. :oops: I had every intention of having a quick power nap and heading back, but when I woke up it was 5.45pm :palm:

I will make up for it next year as I will have the weekend off and be there both days and I will remember my camera next time!!
