Hi

Have been catching up on emails after a busy few weeks.
Finally got around to looking up some of the "winners" from the US Nation Bonsai Exhibition (care of BonsaiBark newsletter)

Would love to hear peoples thoughts on:

- Ho Yoku Award for the Finest Western Display. Japanese Maple by Joseph Noga of Winterville, North Carolina. (3rd Picture down on following link)

I personally love it, as soon as I looked at it the voice in my head said that's cool. thanks for sharing

That maple is kind of cute but the palmatum exhibited by Suthin is amazing, I have seen some of his work on IBC and think his trees must be some of the best outside Japan.

The hanging basket maple is certainly different. A lot of thought in how to display it. That must have kept him up a few nights thinking. I agree with Craig, what a magnificent Palmatum.

It looked like it was a magnificent Exhibition, from the trees I saw on the Bill V link too.

The maple is great. The JBP looks pretty ordinary to me, someone who does not grow them

the Ho Yoku maple is truly fascinating.
