Very good exhibition by the Yarra Valley Club, I travelled down from Bendigo just for this. Bought a nice little juniper from Mike Simonetto. Purchased quite a few raffle tickets to win the pot, but sadly :( no phone call, some lucky person will have a mile wide smile :D .
Well done folks :clap: :clap: :clap: Miyagiman.

:gday: Again, all I can say is … it's all over for now until the next time and off course - it’ll be bigger and better again!!! ;)
Now all that's left for me to say is:
A BIG THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, to all involved for the great effort put in and creating our most successful Show ever!!! :clap: :clap: :clap:
I’m proud of you and our“still young” club's achievement! :worship:
All the preparation and hard work paid off big time on the day ... based on comments during and after the show by the general public and the-ones-in-the-know from other Melbourne and Country Victorian Clubs!
Comments like … “your best ever show, congratulations” or “ wonderful presentation with great trees and the variety … well done!” :cool:

A big THANK YOU also to our Sellers of great quality "stuff" like - bonsai and starters, pots, stands and accessories as well as to the donors to our raffle ... and off course all our visitors who came to our show - our numbers were up by 60% on our last Show … we feel honoured! :tu:
Close to 250 adult visitors went through the doors with 20% encouraged by the Media and a whopping 33% by Word of Mouth! :hooray:

Again our Kids workshop put big smiles on little faces of proud future bonsai artisans. :D :D :D

All around a great Show with great Trees, great Weather and most of all great People !!!

For the ones who couldn’t make it - you missed out big time, :whistle: but soon you’ll be able to see some photos on the YVBS Facebook site and off course here - watch this space!

Again, a big thank you for your support and kind regards,

Rudi

Well I dropped by and had a good but short lived time.

I enjoyed the wide variety of tree's in particular some of the Azalea's were spectacular.
A lot of really good and stylish tea tree's as well.

I came away with a pot and a Chojubai Flowering Quince seedling (Officially the most expensive seedling I've ever purchased!).
To be honest I was there to see the show, not to make purchases......
Just couldn't resist what I thought to be a very well priced Lorraine Simpson pot and the Chojubai I've seen online are just incredible trees.
