I have two copies of this book, only need one. So if anyone is local to me(Melbourne S.E.) and would like a copy let me know.

Not really after anything in return but if someone has some cuttings or seedlings of something interesting they'd like to trade I'll give them preference!
Also happy to bring it along the next Waverley club meeting.

I can't particularly offer you anything as a complete beginner but it would be a great read if no one else wants it,
Unless you want anything from the gardens in the University of Melbourne, the professors might give me permission to do a little snippy snippy

Well lolofied, your offer of nothing is winning so far!

I do have one of his books, he's good I am always referring to it. Bonsai -The Pocket Encylopedia.
$29.95. Harry is English I think but his book does translate well for Australian conditions. What a nice guy you are. I think he deserves a little bonsai in return.

I'm about to start several Japanese Flowering Plum cuttings very soon. Is that a fair enough trade for one of the cutting?

Cant go wrong for that price, it's quite a good book and covers lots of species for bonsai.
