....and the Casuarinas, Tamarinds, Adeniums and Premna.
When I was there, I found the guys working on trees and they were only too happy to answer any questions I had. Even invited me to a repotting session they were having the following week...only I was leaving before.
I think the best thing about this nursery/collection is, that you can walk 20 meters to the bar, grab an ice cold Bintang :beer: and go and peruse the benches with bevvy in hand...pretty unique.

Cheers!

...as well as Bonsai Cafe, there's heaps of roadside sellers around the Island. I came across one in Ubud (the last 4 pics....all of which were under $200) and some of his stuff was really nice. So, keep your eyes peeled...there's quite alot of Bonsai going on in Bali.

Cheers!

P.S Sorry about the busy backgrounds...there's just sooo many trees, it's hard to get good shots...you'll see...Enjoy!!

Wow some really nice tree's there. Makes me change my mind about going to bali. I'd want to go there just to see this bonsai garden.

Gday Simo & Co!

Some time ago, our very own KetutG started a thread about the Bonsai Cafe in Sanur, and I hopped on board with a handful of pics. We only had 10 days in Bali, and I could have spent all of them perusing the amazing trees at the Cafe... :cry:

Thanks and good luck!

Fly.

If you're a bonsai enthusiast, is that where you go when you die?
