Friday night of this week the national Bonsai and Penjing Collection is being shown, how much and how long not sure but we should all at least look.

Cheers Pup

I did not blink or look away for 1 hour and 40 minutes saw nothing of the NABPC.

When are they going to show it??

A friend told me that it was on for about a minute towards the end of the show and said that they showed an Angophora, (maybe yours Pup). Maybe you could pick it upoun the internet. :fc:

Beautiful Red Gum bonsai. Has anyone on this forum had success with any type of redgum or the like? Would love to know. Pity the show was so quick but a beautiful redgum. :aussie:
