I see they carry the mysterious and ellusive Japanese. I have been meaning to get one of those for a while.

"We have large range of trees, such as Junipers, Pines, Chinese Elms, Azaleas, Japanese, Trident Maples, Cedars and Figs etc."

I was just laughing to myself, about them listing their plant types like that. Species, then just chucking "Japanese" in the mix. I know what they mean "Japanese varieties", just I was all like, "What the hell is a Japanese?"

ahh now i get ya i thought you were going somewhere you shouldnt

He has a great looking set up - anyone been there? It looks nice.

Cheers,

When I began bonsai I spent a lot of time and money here.
Most pots are chinese but I still visit when I want something different as there is a good variety.
I spoke to the owner today, he is just back from China and says lots of new pots are coming soon and a sale is planned for late May.

I've been there a number of times, its pretty good.

Most recently I went there a few weeks ago and purchased a tree, the subject of this thread.

Its buds have just started opening which is good.

I've just noticed that they are having a sale in May so I think another visit is on the cards soon.

mate you need to get to the goldy theirs some good pots down their if you want small stuff try tokoname they ship anywhere

i have been thinking bout tokename to import some stuff, i have about five pots picked out, i am thinkning it might end up cheaper if we get a few people in on it? who wants pots?? this doesnt feel like de ja vu does it

yeah i do actually but my problem is all my trees are large and shipping would be to much i think shohin and mame would be easy if big ones where cheap to get here i would be

Its been a few years now but when i lived down south these guys are the main ones i bought pots from and the odd tree. They were still building the main display area but from what i can see on there website it has come up a treat. They import direct from the family pottery in china, the pots are all good quality & really good prices. The owners are great, if you cant find what you are looking for they may be able to get it in, just have a chat to them.

I didnt know tokoname ship anywhere, have you got a link for us. I grow mainly large trees but love little pots.
