It's brilliant that a club has wised up and put an exhibition on in winter, I look forward to being there.

Cheers,
Mojo

I take it that pic 6 "capture #2" is a rendition of the free maple.

Kewl!

Looking forward to this.............

P.S. Your dates are conflicting David.
I would assume it's actually 20th and 21st.

One of the fabulous things about growing bonsai is as you get old and decrepit your trees get old and beautiful

Thanks Mojo. I hope it all works out as the Winter months do deter people from leaving their homes. Hoping to see the much underrated deciduous trees in all their glory.

Thanks Boics, I have made a mistake and informed the Moderators to change. :) LOL!!! Nice one about the free maple.

Sure do maple. Also the inner rows now have black backgrounds too. Also great club camera to hopefully do justice to all the trees as came out last time.

Only 5 days to go!!!!!!

Exciting times for our first Winter show.

See you there maple and all.

Thanks

Dave, only 2 show trees?
Is that a little Black Pine you're selling? Don't put it on the the sales bench before I get there!
