Everyone, please keep an eye on Lindsay Bebb - if he eats Asian Sunday night at a local restaurant.

Was the tree in the Tokonoma a weeping maple? It looks amazing once its leaves have dropped!

Yeah that was a really really really nice weeping willow Pearcy! Heard some more about its history today from the lucky owner (the VP of the SA Bonsai Society).
It was nice to meet Steven today too! I'm still kind of having a chuckle to myself for asking you whether you 'ever go on Ausbonsai' !

I am really looking forward to it however I am a little unsure of which tree(s) to bring though. Any advice appreciated
Black pine from 2012 gift -
Black pine I bought back in 2011 Shimpaku from Bonsai Mujo Or an untrained Shimpaku I bought for $5 4 years ago and have just let grow wild. (plenty of branch choices)

You Croweaters have certainly got Jade and Olives down pat. Some very desirable trees there, for sure. Thanks for taking the time to post.
