Hi all,

I'm liquidating a few things at the moment to fund other interests in life. A bonsai wisteria, a young shishigashira maple air layer from i think it was 2019 and a large Koyo tray.

Pick up only, i'm not going to try to post a semi-cascade wisteria or a massive pot :lol:


1. Chinese Wisteria, interesting semi cascade (about 60cm in length) rather than the usual upright ones. Flowered last spring and was very nice indeed but i cant find the photo anywhere annoyingly. On the current back side there is a section of dead wood (see second photo), it is healing over and does not extend into the soil line, so no risk of trunk rotting whatsoever. The pot is a nice tokoname drum. Cost me $650 including the pot, i'll say $400

2. Shishigashira maple. I airlayered this off my bigger one i believe it was 2019, so it's on its own roots in this twin trunk thing. Needs time and work so $30

3. Tokoname Koyo large tray (damaged). I've had this one for a while, a massive tray by the Koyo kiln (now Juko as son has taken over) Very uncommon to find large Koyo trays like this in Australia, stunning turquoise glaze. It sadly is damaged (chip on one of the sides (not a display front) but price reflects it isn't in perfect condition; If not for that chip it would be eye wateringly expensive. If you want to take a group planting to the next level, this pot has to be considered. Internal dimensions L= 54cm, W= 37cm, H= about 4cm. $350

Nice trees and pot and even better prices. If I was in Vic I'd be tempted by all three. Good luck with the sale but I'm sure these will move quickly

I’ve personally seen that Wisteria and the photo doesn’t do it justice. Gorgeous tree at a bargain price!

bumping this one,

I can't go any lower on the wisteria, but i can drop the koyo tray to $300. Absolute bargain

$300 for a Koyo tray that size with one little chip is outrageously cheap. Maybe list it on facebook, would surely sell. People are selling smaller slip cast 'Tokoname' pots for not much less

Winter dormancy discount on the Wisteria given it's out of leaf at the moment, $300 pick up which is less than half what i paid. With lots of gardening work going on an a big mulch order needing to be placed it can find a new home and i can get the mulch i need. :tu:
