Meeting on the 18th

I am getting very excited about the work-on-your-tree meeting on the 18th! I have started practicing! Look what a little wire can do!









The first two pictures are a nursery tree to bonsai with half a day of wiring. The second two are pictures of a David Rowe workshop tree, which was entered in this years christmas tree competition, and two hours of wiring.

Club Cards!

The club has acquired business cards with the club log, meeting times, website and contact info! These will be distributed, a few to each member. Give them to anyone you meet who is interested in bonsai!

After the makeover!

Poor fellas need a home

These poor fellas were left at the December meeting. They are yellow cedar cuttings, about two years old.

We have decided to bring them back and see if anyone is interested in them next meeting, Jan 14th
