AusBonsai

Gday Guys,
Just wondering if any Sydneysiders out there would like to put together a full and comprehensive list of Bonsai Nurseries including addresses and contact details.

I'll be up there for a few days in Oct and have made a reservation (with the wife) to spend an entire day, dawn til dusk, driving from nursery to nursery in and around Sydney.

Thanks a lot and look forward to your replies. Of course, any high recommendations are most welcome

That's the good oil! But to extend that list add 3, 4, and 6. And you may get around in one day.

Go slow and you will se the faded sings above the driveway

Padre Pio
158 Annangrove Road, Kenthurst

I have been to Padre Pio once quite a while ago (did not know the name until I saw the previous poster) - did not know of its existance until driving along Annangrove Road and saw a Bonsai sign by the roadway.

But have been past several times recently and have not seen the sign.

Anyone know if it still operates ?

As I recall, they had quite a large selection of plants.

hey i recently went to ray nesci its ok i recently bought a bougainvillea from him n it was like a freshly airlayered it had hard any nebari i got ripped 70 bucks anyways i fink theres one called IMPERIAL BONSAI in terry hills i forgot the address sorry but yeah somewhere there

With a bougie, you will get that nebari in no time. I have never seen a tree at Rays that i would call a "rip off". Can you post a picture of the said tree?

I would NEVER go to Imperial. Have had bad experiences there. No more to say.

JayC

yeah i was pretty shocked too i buy all my plants there i recently asked him on my last visit wen i bought my corky bark elm GOIN TO LOOK CRAZY lolz anyways he told me that bougaiunvilleas have weak nevari but ive seen a lot with nice trunks n good nebari well the trees not dead but aint showin any signs of regrowth =s

yeah the leaves dropped n had die back so cut it back cant show u the nebari cuz i dont want to disturb it its in intensive care right now hahahaha

Last call Guys,
anything anyone can add to this one? I'm heading up there tomorrow. Anyone got Padre Pio's number?
