This topic will be a record of all the AusBonsai featured bonsai that appear in the header.
We started with a lovely Australian Native that Steven said has given him much inspiration over the years.
If you want to see your tree in the ausbonsai header, please keep an eye on the current competition section. If there is no current competition and you reckon your tree deserves a month in our showcase, you are always welcome to recommend your bonsai to us by sending a PM to me or Steven. To have your tree selected for the header, you have to own the tree (or permission was granted to both you and ausbonsai.com to use this picture) and a relatively high quality picture needs to be provided, preferably with progression shots or a story about the tree's life in training.
