Jim Smith's Bonsai - Durastone

This last week I took a trip down to Fl, as some of you know. I stopped at Durastone, Jim Smith's Bonsai Nursery. O my lord what a nursery, it was awesome. He has many of nursery, and 2 100x30 foot green houses. After making some purchases, Jim invited me to his home to see his personal collection. Jim is one of the nicest person's I have ever met. What a blast!! If you ever have the chance to get there do it!
Check out the pictures I took at the nursery. Further down will be some pics at his house!

First one is a collected bald cypress, the pot measures 54 inches!
Second one is Jim Smith and an assistant Carla measuring the pot.
next is a random bonsai, cant remeber what kind of tree it is
Fourth is a Bougainvillea forest
Ficus of some sort (i didnt write all the species down sorry)
Sixth is a buttonwood
