Would they be open to allow you to take some pics Jon, and post here? Do they have a website? I havent been out to Steves for a long time, might have to take a trip out there and go on to the Goldie and do Red Dragon also.

Stephen is a very affable fellow and I'm sure that he wouldn't mind the publicity. I will see if I can find the time to take a trip down there.

Well worth visiting Steve Rawkins. There are some of the world's best Swamp Cypress bonsai for sale there. Trees up to $20,000 and worth every cent. They have to be seen to be believed.

Wow.....i must go and have another look there! I definately missed them when i was last there.

They're under the big Eucalyptus, in amongst those massive Bougainvilleas Steve has there. It's been a while since I was there but he hasn't sold them all, surely?

I must get down there soon, now I'm back on my feet.

Took a trip up to Morayfield to visit Tess' nursery on Saturday. I hadn't been there in quite a while. Spent a couple of hours talking, got some young stock trees. I'll probably be going back there soon!!

Here is a photo of Steve's nursery from a few years back. He has a great range of plant stock.

I would suggest putting the photo in the correct thread. This thread is for Bonsai Northside Nursery, which is Tess' nursery in Morayfield. Steve's nursery (Australian Bonsai Grower) is on the southside in Park Ridge. There is a thread for Steve's nursery as well, still on the frst page
=)
