Was looking forward to this day.... Now have to move into a new place so won't make it hopefully this will be an annual event. Look forward to some pics and see what trees people picked up... Enjoy!

Pics for those of us that can't make it?

I'll be back in Sydney one day late!

Wishing for a successful event

The gates have just opened and the 50 or so buyers who were patiently waiting are not getting first dibs on the hundreds of trees and pots for sale.

How about an update for us out of staters who couldn't make it ? How is the day going ?

1 or 2 pics i took using my phone. Quality isn't too good.

I thought the day was a success. People were still coming when i left. 1 sellers table was sold out. Sellers were more than happy to hold the items for you. Some very well prices items. A few sellers i felt had higher pricing but i am sure they will be reducing these by the afternoon if they don't sell.

Overall great day. Steven





PS: didn't see the guy who was supposed to sell off the truck.

I noticed a large impressive fig tree on my way in and couldn't believe the price tag was only 1000 dollers.
I would have thought it was worth more . Anyone else see it ? It didn't have many branches but the trunk was very nice.

I too enjoyed the day and hope that it will be a regular event. Many thanks to Steven for organizing the day. Very nice to put a face to a name. Came home with three great trees which were very reasonably priced. A very happy bonsai lady today! For all those who couldn't get there I hope you can if it is held again well worth the trip. Great venue too!

It was a good day Ken. We should all have met up at a certain time and introduced ourselves maybe next time. I bought a Manchurian Pear, Grouping of Privets and a Sandpaper fig. All a great size and well established. Cost for all was only just over $200 very happy with my purchases. Great day.
