Hi Bdog,

There is a little nursery next to the big banana that sells Frangi Panis (Plumaria) and orchids (no bonsai). They stock fertilizer containers for on top of the soil, as well as what looks to be a really nice inorganic soil (they sell it for orchids). They also have lots of bromeliads.

Hope you can find more than what i could there!

Joel

Happy Easter,
The stones on the beach north of Coffs are nice. There is a big flash resort where the football wallabies stay with a good carpark and easy walk to the beach. The small pebbles are pretty. If you go out onto the rocky headlands "fishing" with a rod and esky sometime a sharp and interesting thing may get in the way and need to be transported to safety in the esky. You may need a "fishing" "hammer" just incase you catch a big fish. Be very gentle and only take what you can eat. Remember the great outdoors should show no sign of our passing and be left for all to enjoy.
Happy fishing.
Bruce

There is a nursery at Moorland (near Taree called Greenlight Nursery). Sells koi and has a lot of decent bonsai starters. Don't expect a bargain though.
