Hi,

I have been lucky enough to receive pot number 9. I appreciate it very much.

Thanks go to Steven and Penny :) Steven did ask me to pick one, but I asked Steven
to pick for me -- and it is among the ones that I like best.

For me this is the second pot by an Australian artist that I have. The pot is better
than in the pictures.

I have a tree for it, but it will have to wait till summer :)

:)

Best regards.

WooHoo Congrats Jarrod ;)

Mine won't be the best so I better make it the first. This "waxy flower tree" has been in a pot that always needed refilling as the soil washed away from the root ball. Hopefully it with sit better in this one. It is a tree that has some very intresting angles so a static picture does it little justice. It has some flower buds I will repost when it flowers out.
I love getting presents turn up at the door even if our delivery boy is a bit strange. I am sure he stands at the door long before he knocks :oops:
Thanks Heaps Steven :D

Congrats Jarrod
I am glad it went to a young person we need to encourage you all.
I have yet to see my pot in the muck so to speak. I am sure to have something to put in it. Native of course. Now when do the PK's arrive so we can
start the frantic posting again.
I have a Bottle brush coming into flower soon it is full of buds. So may be a before and after series. As per BCI or Horticulture Mag articles. Could win me a well what ever :P :oops: :lol: ;) Pup

Thank you to those members who posted nice comments about my pots - especially to Pat -praise indeed coming from you. Good on you Steven for keeping this forum so lively.
I've been a bit of a lurker lately as I've been in the middle of a commission to make pots as trophies for a popular all breeds dog show. It's done now so onto making pots for Central coast and Newcastle exhibitions. Congratulations to Jarrod. I hope you all enjoy the pots.
Penny.

I just received my Pot number 4 of 14. Now I have a huge problem.
Sue has coverted it for her pot collection. Now I know what people say ITS mine but, and It is a BIG but.I owe her about 5 pots. That I took for my Shito size tree's. So I have another totally different bugger moment. I will have to wait like I did for the pot, but a lot longer I think. Is that not what Bonsai is all about .

Gday folks!

In case you were wondering what became of '11 of 14'... It now resides atop a pile of Bonsai books next to my computer, from which position it taunts me to find a worthy tree. The look and feel of an eroded river bank leads me to think that a weeping River Red might be appropriate (of course I was going to say that, wasn't I? :|).

Thanks to Mr Steven for his generosity, and thanks to Ms Penny for her wonderful and unique pottery!

I urge every recipient of a limited edition Mudlark pot to keep the general Membership informed about what they choose to do with their pot.

Thanks again.

Fly.

I concur with you Mr Fly but Mrs Pup has it sitting where if I move it, it will be instantly missed.
I would also like to take this opportunity, to thank Penny for such a beautiful example of true Australian pots. I saw one at our Auction on Monday night it sold, but I cant remember for how much. I do know who bought it so I might be able to get that one for the Mrs and get mine back!!. :( Not the boss been married to long and I am still around :twisted: Pup

I received the prize pot. And oh my gosh, it is amazing. A massize thank you to everyone who had a hand in setting up this prize. I am like the others who have received their pots... I have nothing that will do the pot any justice. Will update the progress of this pot as I find a tree worthwhile.

Who thinks it should be a native?

Cheers,

and thanks again.
Jarrod
