I came across this web site and thought I would share. Im sure it is someone people here have heard of before?
Not only does he have an awesome set up for his bonsai, but this site has progressions going back to the 70's.
I thought it was impressive.

Wow, loved the site and his story. Under 'Australian relatives' he shows a beach as says probably all hotels now. Looks like great ocean road, and one of those winding cuttings before Lorne looking back to east towards Fairhaven? Nice if so, as he would be pleased in the relatively little change.

Thanks for sharing, gives hope seeing those tiny seedlings blossom over his lifetime.

Love the older stuff. Priceless photography, the colours are fantastic. I miss film.

Sad to see he gave up his entire collection due to his ongoing battle with brain cancer. At least it lives on in this site and in the collections he donated too.

It is sad to see that, especially since it seemed to have been something he was so passionate about.

Fantastic website and amazing Bonsai. If only I could keep my collection looking that immaculate all the time! What a great resource! Thanks for stumbling across this one James ...
