Shohin Pots And Trees At The Taikan-Ten
Here is just a small sample of the shohin trees and pots at the Taikan-Ten. There were plenty of shohin pots in the vendors area for sale. I did manage to buy some for my collection of new and old pots.
The shohin pots were quite expensive at the show..
Enjoy the photos.

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

Hi Mathew,
I agree with you. All the labelling is in Japanese. Also thank you for all your comments. It is very time consuming down loading and putting it on the forum etc.
As long as the forum readers enjoy the photos and my bonsai journey, I will keep posting.

Hi Lance,
I am enjoying your photos immensely. If not too much effort please keep them coming. I am always curious about the price of trees in Japan if you have any pictures from the trade tables that would be interesting too
.
Cheers,
Symon
