Hi Marlene,
good idea working with the Craft show. Allows you bring a partner not interested in Bonsai.
Is the Craft Show in the garden area in front of the show building?

Maple, there are lots of stalls all around the area, covering the whole grounds of the Town Centre Hall, lots of home made goodies, flowers and more.
It sure is entertaining for the whole family, not to mention that you could extend your visit to go up to Sky High and enjoy a bite to eat and admire the view across Melbourne.
Hope to see you and your family there

Just one more week and its on again!!!

Lots of great Trees on display, great Natives on show too ... and YES, including Allocasuarina torulosa and stunning Lemon-scented Tea-trees

Great sales area ... including Lorraine Simpson pots in all shapes and sizes, top quality Bonsai Stands and of course lots of Starter plants and finished Bonsai from members and top growers too.
Fantastic Raffle prices - just make sure you bring enough and just in case .... eftpos will be available too

Keep in mind its ONE DAY only, make sure you be early to get the pick of the bunch!!!

Hope to see lots of you there

Cheers, Rudi
