Re: AusBonsai Market Day - 20th March 2016
To be fair to everyone I will take orders for copper wire and turntables but I can only hold them till 11am unless paid for on the morning or BPay in advance as they are pretty popular.
Cheers,
Grant

Re: AusBonsai Market Day - 20th March 2016
The pines I am bringing are all now in Bonsai pots and highly worked over the last two years; no longer the basic stock they were. I don't have any pine nursery stock for sale.Sean M wrote:I think Grant said he was bringing some of those to this years sale (as per the quote below)65muzzy wrote:Looking for Some nice black pines similar to the ones that were for sale a couple of years ago.

Re: AusBonsai Market Day - 20th March 2016
Here is some general advice.
If you see a pot that is a bit unusual and you like it; BUY IT. Otherwise you will never see that pot again, the potter will die; an earthquake will destroy all stock of that pot and you will be left with a broken bonsai spirit lamenting the time you saw that perfect pot and you failed to buy it. GUARANTEED.
Same goes with nursery stock. Wishing for the same stock you saw 2 years ago isn't going to produce results.
This weekend is the perfect time to buy material from a range of sellers so take advantage of it.
