hi guys,
I used to have a few bonsai's when I was a kid and wanted to get back into it, the problem is that I have moved and don't know where to find any bonsai nurseries. Does anyone know where I could find any in or near Launceston? and sorry for posting in this section of the board but I couldn't find a more relevant section.

Hi,

You are not far from Lyn Farrell at the Tasmanian Bonsai Centre at Riverside Launceston which can be visited by appointment. I visit there regularly each year and Lyn has a superb collection, nice pots and tools including good quality Japanese brands.

cheers
