AusBonsai

Hi All

For any locals and those who might be in town next weekend, the Bonsai Society of Qld Inc will be holding our Annual Show on Saturday 3rd and Sunday 4th September in the Auditorium at the Mt. Coot-tha Botanical Gardens. It will be open from 9am - 4pm both days with Bonsai Demonstrations at 11am and 2pm daily.

Admission is $5 and there will be Bonsai and stock for sale as well as pots, tools and accessories. Come and see around 90 Bonsai on display across all skill levels and a wide variety of species.

Hope to see you there

Thought I would show off a few pics from our show this weekend. I will apologise for some of the photos up front as they did not come out as good as I hoped. Gotta go see an optometrist, I thought they looked alright on the camera
Just been called to dinner so will put some more up later

Tony

Very nice Tony, a lovely display

Mick

Is the Tree of Show a chinese elm? Because i've never seen that kind of bend in one of them..

Mmmm. Nice. Honey mustard chicken.
Just some of the beautiful trees on display. Still open tomorrow from 9-4 if your in Bris.
Hope you enjoyed

Tony

Hi BirchMan

Just edited to show the tree names.

Yes Chinese Elm. Pretty dramatic hey?

Tony

Nice pics Tony I'll be coming along tomorrow to heck it out, and I'll bring my camera too.
Quick question - in the trade area, are there any of those orchid style plastic pots available? Desperately need some lol

WOW! those trees are amazing!

i just got back from the royal adelaide show, and the trees left a bit to be desired, no offense to the participants. There were a couple of good trees, but with only a hand full on display i felt sourly dissapointed.
Ur trees are a league above those at the adelaide show.

Sorry Nathan. No orchid pots.

See you there.

Hello Tony,

The show display was very nice. Good to see so many flowering bonsai on display.

Do you have any after pics of your morning demo tree? We had to leave before your big finale.
