I am sure we could scrounge up some prizes to make it a little more interesting. Maybe a commissioned pot from me

Brett, you would absolutely need a category for Aus native. I can think of a few species whose form may suggest the style - casaurina, podocarpus, callitris, leptospermum, banksia (think of a tall nursery grown b. integrifolia as stock).

i dont think it would matter what species you used, although having a native catagory probly wouldnt be a bad idea!

Yep I am with Jamie as far as contest go here there is a lack of participation so I would be keen to keep the different categories to a minimum.

I'm
interested, but I cannot necessarily guarantee that I'll end up a valid participant. Perhaps I should go vote now...

Fly.
how could you not be a valid participant???? and my earlier post wasnt to guilt people into it (well maybe a little

) moreso to just give it a bump as such and get people to notice it
im keen as to have a crack at it

Being a mod I guess he fears he will have to run it and that would disqualify him.
I would think as long as you where not expected to judge there is no reason you can't jion in Fly.
That is another issue we need a judge or two. Would be great if we could get an expert

I'm on of course but would not expect my 'prize' to be sent by air this time.

The freight costs are a bit heavy. I might even let it go to the second place winner.

Afterthought:- Is there any fee for the judge
