Indeed, in fact so good that she is still finding boxes of pots that she packed up to move the LAST time she moved four years ago!

Rocky, and all y'all that are closer to this area than I,

Are there going to be any of your trees exhibited? Just wondering if any of the bT'ers' trees will be on display?

Just wondering if any of the bT'ers' trees will be on display?" It is a SHOW and sale, despite my emphasis on the vendor stuff ;-)---there is a big exhibit of PBA club. There are five DC, MD and VA clubs under the PBA umbrella--If I remember correctly--so the PBA show has dozens of trees on exhibit in the main Arboretum building. Not to mention the big National Arb bonsai facilities' standing exhibits. All together there will be a few hundred trees to look at. I do not have any trees in the exhibit, but if you're traveling up from the south on I-95, you pass very close to my house. PM me. I will be around that weekend... __________________
