Small is beautiful...

Post by Dario »

The Saturday Age newspaper (21/09/2013) has an article on pg 10 in the Life and Style /Gardening section entitled "Small is beautiful" by Megan Backhouse.
It is a page or so long about a young man called Hao Ho who has a business called Ho's Sweet Grass Bonsai Nursery Café.
Its location is 357 Barkly Street Footscray, Melb and is open daily from 10am to 6pm.
It is a café that has bonsai on display. I enjoyed the article and thought some of the members in Melb may wish to visit it, hence this thread.
Cheers, Dario.
