I am having lotss of trouble deciding, this semi styled mugo

or this cedar group which I am already happy with but suspect would benefit from some subtle refimements and a complete rewire

Not yet, I am swaying toward the cedar group but will bring both, I have seen some of the trees which will be available for sale from Tien (Bonsai Sensation) they are also very tempting.

Well oh well,
Having been to the Grand Chancellor Hotel today to drop off one of my Ash trees for the Convention's Exhibition, I must say that the level of activity and organisation was just fantastic to behold.
Well done to the S.A. Bonsai Society and members.
Will be some awesome trees to see, having witnessed a truck load of trees delivered from the NBPCA.
Looking forward to the exhibition, demonstrations, workshops and more.
See you all there,
Luke P.

I too am doing the workshop with Koji (afternoon session).
I am really looking forward to it however I am a little unsure of which tree(s) to bring though. Any advice appreciated
