Ben Oki in Kansas City

Here are a couple of shots of Ben Oki at the Bonsai Society of Greater Kansas City. Ben's been coming here for many years, following John Naka who came here for many years before him.

The first two pics are of a Japanese black pine he grew from seed for 20 years. The other is a collected Ponderosa pine from Golden Arrow Bonsai.

Check my blog for more photos!
