Who Is Going To The Native Show?

Post by Leigh Taafe »

Who is going to the native show in Canberra 13 & 14 March?

Anyone coming from interstate would be able to catch the National Collection (NBPCA), The Festival Of Forests.....

.....and a pop in to Ledanta Bonsai Nursery!

The boss wants me to reduce my stock of pre bonsai material now that I am working in other areas. It is still all hand watering at my place - and this can take 3 hours a day! So - I am happy to reduce the price of stacks of mature stock - some of which would be half of the price you would pay in Sydney for comparable material.

I have cedar, english elm, chinese elm, black pine, red pine, scots pine, shimpaku juniper, juniper squamata, prunus, spruce, and a few bits of this and a few bits of that!

So, if you are in town - pop around and introduce yourself.

Cheers,
Leigh.

Hello Heshian,

The special prices are for out of town people only. I have a sneaking suspicion that your suburb is less than 5 ks from my place .......... and yet - you visit me less often than an out of towner!! I guess this will qualify you for some good pricing!

The shimpaku start in 8 inch containers from $20 right up to 14 inch containers for $120 - some good "old" stock ! I also have some pre-styled material that will go for around $250 to $300 - would be 20+ years old.

Cheers,
Leigh.
