Thanks for the effort of posting so many trees for our viewing pleasure Scott. I was lucky enough to spend time in Omiya and what you say is true.. When i saw the trees i had trouble coming back to my collection. But as you say, you get over it and move on. The inspiration is wonderful though and we soldier on.

Thank you Scott.

The base on this tree is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!

thanks heaps for sharing these pictures mate, i know i and many other people here really appreciate this insight to some of the most magnificent bonsai in the world.

Thanks,
Hugh

Hey no problems with posting the pics, I'm glad you're enjoying them. As I've said it's very rare that these trees can be photographed like this so I'm more than happy to share them with you all!

Here's some more.
It was explained to me that this little tag means this tree is of significant importance and cannot be sold outside of Japan. This award can also be taken away from the tree.

Awesome trees Scott, thanks so much for posting them mate,

is this one of those Ezo spruce's ? It's stunning

Here's the last round of pics.Phew!

This tree was prepared by Aichi-en for the show.

Here's Mt Fuji from a truck stop very early in the morning.
Yours truly freezing his coconuts off to get a pics with some lovely trucks in the background.
The truck stops are really like little shopping malls, multi-level and this one had a security guard! Anyway, that's it for this little part of the adventure. I hope everyone enjoyed!

Hi all,

Much more amazing than the Chelsea Flower show exhibit. Absolute stunner - Go Japan!

Cheers,
