Re: Trade show
Don, you call it a trade show - does that mean that these trees were for sale? If so have you any prices.
Thanks a lot for sharing.

Re: Trade show
The traders had their own stands in the middle of the hall, there was a competition between stylers and an exhibition by Kevin Wilson. The trees that I showed were individual private exhibits. I do know that 008 which belonged to one of my club associates changed hands but I don't know the price that he obtained for it.

Re: Trade show
Thanks Don, That was a nice Juniper, I haven't seen trunks that thick much in Australia unfortunately. Would the price be in the Hundreds of pounds or thousands?
