Well, I don't know about that (by crickey) but I can report that there were plenty of Pup's amazing trees, big and little, to be seen.

I learnt quite a bit looking at the displayed trees, both the show stoppers and the in-a-few-years trees. I'm really jealous of the person who managed to get a Leptospermum scoparium to survive - they tend to die every time I root prune them.

Quite late in the day when I arrived but quite a good crowd, including lots of non-bonsai people going "WOW!" (a group of Serious Young Hipsters were Seriously Appreciating(tm) a group planting near the main entrance at one point).

Got away without spending too much - some beautiful pots from potters I don't normally see, plus everything from starter sticks to Real Bonsai for sale.

The club members (inc President and VP) were present in number and were happy to chat to all comers.

Great show!

Looking forward to May...

Who ever you are Harry please do not comment on my threads ever again.
To the rest of you here are some pics, when I say some as I was pushed for time a lot were out of focus so deleted them. Here are some of the better ones.

Cheers Pup Some more later.

Here are some more.

Thanks for posting Pup. The Mels and Babingtonias were wonderful.

What an amazing display of quality trees. Would love to have seen some of those trees for real. Thanks for sharing the expirience with us.

Inspiring !!! Thanks for taking the time to post the pictures, Pup. We all enjoy seeing such beautifull trees.
Cheers John.

Looks like I'm a little late to post these. I had my young boy (23months) along with me for the day so things were fairly rushed. I'll just post a few that haven't been shown yet. Sorry about the picture quality as my skills are next to none

Cheers!

Thank you for those Banksia, they are much appreciated.

We have just received notification from the Telethon foundation, that the contribution made from the weekend amounted to $2,994-45.

Which is a fantastic effort both by the members and the public of WA, we still managed to cover our expenses and make a slight profit.

So to all who supported us a HUGE thank you.

Cheers Pup, on behalf of the Bonsai Society Of Western Australia.

Well done

Good on ya guys well done and top effort.
