Bump this one up! The tree in the photo should be at the show - but in a new pot - amongst many other great trees. So come along and see all the great work we are doing out here!

I've been waiting for an autumn show for years because this is when my native trees look their very best, as opposed to the traditional spring shows when they are at there lowest ebb. So the vast majority of my contribution is going to be natives.

It's going to be a great day.
Rumor has it that Jarrod is going to be there... In the flesh.. Lol
It will be a good day to meet and greet with some of the Aus Bonsai members.
Kindest Regards,
