A few things...

First I'm extremely jealous but also very lucky (for my wallet) that there are no places that like that around me. I mean, the size of the operations there have to be immense. I've never seen anything like it.

Secondly, while there was obviously lots of pricey material there it was nice to see they also have good starter material that could be real nice in a few years without killing your bonsai budget. Do those words go together? I feel like I have a lack of planned bonsai budget for the year. I think I don't make a budget cause if I did then I would just feel terrible every time I went over it, again and again.

Thirdly, does anyone know of any operations like this in the US? Preferrably east coast or in the general vicinity?

Thank so much for posting, even just watching the slideshow on fast was worth the 10 minutes it took. Also, kudos for posting full quality pics. I get sick of these small jpg images. Yuck.

Cheers,
-EK
