Hi Gerald good work getting them all up so timely. Great to meet you all, it was a fantastic experience. Thanks to Peter Kate and Chris and Co at the Imagination Tree. It will be something to see the trees again in a few years. Cheers

Excellent photography Gerard, thank you for posting these up. (it shows how messy the Radiata (tree E) looks at this stage.)

I was very happy to see some amazing stock there today and I know that I, and I assume everyone else learnt a lot today.

Thanks for everyone that made this possible.

What a great day. The callibre of stock was higher than any workshop I have been to before. Every tree there was high quality, aged, Pre- Bonsai material with great potential which made for excellent discussion. Great for both participants and the few observers that attended. Extremely pleased that I attended this workshop, I got a lot out of it. Great to meet Soda and chat with Jarrod once again.

Hi Gerard,

It was good to see you coming back today and thanks for taking such great photo's.

I would like to thank all participants of both workshops. Each one of you did a great job and you all will have some excellent trees in a few years time. I would also like to thank our friend Pat Kennedy for supporting us and we would like to see you back at our next event. Also a big thank you to the observers although there weren't to many there today. There is still a chance to see Peter in action on Wednesday 10 August at 7pm at Bonsai The Imagination Tree in Mount Evelyn. Peter will do a demo on a large Juniper.I have seen the 4 different designs for this tree and they all look great but which one will Peter choose?? To find that out you have to come down. You'll also have the chance to win another Pat Kennedy pot in our raffle.

And last but not least I would like to thank Peter and Kate for their support for our Non-for-Profit organisation and your ongoing support for Bonsai in Australia. :worship:

I hope to see you all on Wednesday!!!

Cheers,

Chris and the team of Bonsai The Imagination Tree
