Re: Shohin Convention, Santa Nella

In pic one we have Bill Valavanis from New York. Bill was using Dwarf Hinoki Cypress as his medium.

In pic two thats Ted Matson, he's using yaopon holly.

In three thats Kathy Shaner. She is doing the most expensive workshop of all. Those are shohin size black pines. These trees were started by Lonnie McCormik in 1990 from seed. They are now about 11-12 inches tall with a 2" trunk that tapers right to point. These were exquisite trees. The workshop was limited to six lucky persons, all drawn by lottery.
