Hi Shibui,

I'm looking around for a nice maple. I haven't found one I like around the nurseries here, they don't do anything for me. But your maples look nice, so wondering if you can help me find something I like. I have a budget, but then again I don't...it depends on the tree. Something that isn't a starter, that is maybe already in training. On your website I admired the picture of the frost covered maple with that nice ramification, though I can imagine the price on that would be up there.

Cheers

I purchased a couple of very nice Tridents from Shibui earlier in the year.

He is definitley worth a visit. :imo: some of the best maples in Victoria!

I'm on the Gold Coast, I would have to trust him to pick out a nice one and send it over.I prefer seeing the trees I buy firsthand, buuuut if the tree is nice enough I can risk it.

These frogs love the nursery and are often under pots. Here's the closeup.
Froddo! Must be a cool place to hide out from the sun.

At least these trees are less effort to climb i guess

Hi everyone :wave:
We sold nearly all the established stock at the BSV show in Box Hill and the following weekend at Canberra bonsai show so I have been waiting for the trees we dug last winter to re-establish properly in the pots before offering them for sale. I can see roots in the drain holes of the trident pots and the chinese elms are growing strongly so both these are ready to go. The black pines are all growing strongly too so might alsao be ready to travel safely.
I have been trying to find time to take pics of these new trees so I can offer them but life seems to be rather too busy at the moment. Keep an eye on the website for when I post a new catalogue or if you already know what you want send details and I'll see if I can find something to match.

Emily I have posted plants successfully as far as Yeppooon and a few to Gold Coast and Brisbane. Happy to do pics of back and sides if required but I sell mostly prebonsai trainers rather than finished trees.
Thanks for the plug Siddhar. Great to hear from satisfied customers.
