Hi Duckbed and Mr Snoopy

Are you guys members of the Central Coast Bonsai Society. If not, you should consider joining They arranged a pallet in the past and might be able do so again if there is enough interest. I could do with some more myself.

Look them up at their facebook page "Central Coast Bonsai Society Inc"

Their annual show is on at Erina soon.

I'm not a member as yet (just moved in to the area and settling in). I'm planing on going to the Erina Event so might be an opportune time to sign up

Is this shipped in from OS. If So anyone know who the supplier is? Happy to jump in on a group shipping!

Cheers,
Rick

Might be worth seeing if anyone is selling any at the community sale day?

Imported from japan, only importers to bring some in in recent years are in Perth. Clubs usually use this importer to get akadama and kunama delivered by the pallet to the east coast. ;)

No im not, I havent had much chance since I have uni in sydney and work, but I'll see if I can squeeze thetime in there somewhere :D

also no luck with the kanuma mate, Id say boomba has the best idea so far with the club pallet
