It is always surprising how many interested people show up to talk about bonsai. This first full weekend in June was no exception as word got around that ACBS was displaying some of its and demonstration how bonsai can be created from ordinary nursery stock.
The nursery hosted the mini show in its neat out door gathering area, sort of a garden within the garden, where the club set up and did a little tree work. Emmett carved up a couple of 5 gallon size boxwoods to show how the process begins. Members talked with visitors about such things as how to pick out a good candidate for bonsai from stock material, what species are good first time attempts and general care questions.
So relaxing--working on a tree with friends on a terrific June afternoon.
