Tower Hill Botanical Gardens Bonsai Weekend

Many thanks to Amanda (Maineward) for reminding me that this show was taking place this weekend. Todays display was amazing! Some great trees, great people, and plenty of conversation! The vendor area was somewhat small but there was lots of great deals. I was fortunate enough to spend a couple of hours watching Colin Lewis perform his magic and he was more than happy to answer all my questions. All that attended were fortunate enough to follow Colin through the Judged Tree area and he gave an honest critique of the trees with in in-depth discussion of both the faults and achivements.

You will have to excuse the quality of the pictures, the lighting made it impossible to get a good one but I tried my best.

This first picture is of an Ulmus Elegantissima and was presented by Colin Lewis himself
