Melbournes North-west Bonsai Club Spring Show
The North-west Bonsai Club had their spring show this week end. I went saturday morning, arriving bright and early to see a queue of people over one hundred metres long. While in the queue, a conversation started between a few of us and one of the comments was about this great forum on the internet called BonsaiTalk. I replied that yes I'm a member there too to which Stephenr came out with, fozz?!!!!!.
Its amazing how bonsai brings all sorts of folks together. Stephen and I chatted on and off for over an hour and a half whilst I was at the show. I introduced myself to Davidn who is the president of North-west. A big thankyou must go to him and the rest of the club for a very warm welcome to all that attended the show.
The quality of the trees, like the Victorian show, was extremely good and the trading/stock tables were full of things to buy. Tim Vivoda and his partner Jane, of A to Z Bonsai starters up at Monbulk, had a large number of their advanced starter plants for people to choose from which complimented the large selection of bonsai for sale. Stephen had a grin from ear to ear from a great pine he picked up.
Anyway heres a few pics from the show, hope you enjoy them.
