Definitely one of my favorite bonsai that I've seen, the ramification on it is just another level, just glad the photo does it justice

@Pearcy, that is strange, are you still getting that error? It might be the browser you are using maybe? Have never had that site not work for anyone sorry

Its a Mel, cant remember exactly which one. This was by far the most advanced tree in the show. The ramification defies belief! Stunning tree!

That one would be a Meleleuca cuticularis, or Swamp Paperbark

Salt water paperbark they live in saline estuarys and brackish swamps. One of the first trees taken back to the UK by the botanists in the 1700',s

Some outstanding trees on display, obviously that mel was a show stopper but for me being a big olive fan I was delighted to see this olive at the show again this year. I haven't seen any better in the bark.. Also to meet and chat to Jason, only briefly however, really topped off the visit. A real pleasure to meet you sir. well done everyone involved.

Thanks for the correction Pup I don't know why I wrote 'swamp', I even checked the card again to see what it was, but still wrote 'swamp paperbark'

Definitely a species I want to get my hands on, as I really only have raphs and nesophylla's at home, plus the odd incana here and there

Glad to see you there mate Was great to have a chat, think thats one of the best part of the shows is getting to meet all these great people who are just as obsessed as me
That olive was stunner, i actually didn't spot it until later on the first day, but when I did I spent a good 20mins staring in wonder. Is definintely a great bonsai

Thank you for sharing Jason.
I was so very much looking forward to attending this show.
Sad that I missed it. Sharing your photos allows me to at least see some of what was there!

Thank you again


Cheers

Cool pics Jason thanks for sharing!

Sorry it wasn't me that you spoke to i was literally in and out within about 20-30 minutes as i had a afternoon soccer match around the corner.

That said i was quite impressed with some of the tree's!
