by Aaron N.A Visit to Brooklyn

Mar 27th: Last February I visited the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens and viewed their bonsai display. The trees I found there were a mixture of old, high quality trees and obviously new additions. This wasn't a show they had on, and it was the dead of winter, but rather a display of trees that I would guess rotate in and out throughout the year. I'll add titles/captions to these photos when I have time. Meanwhile, take a look at what was on display... read more »

Mar 20th: I have to say that I enjoyed myself greatly while in attendance at the show, both during setup and while the exhibit was open.

Every tree in the show should be included and labeled... read more »

by John EdwardsPreparing Trees for Bonsai Show Part 2

Jan 19th: Pots, Stands and accent plants The pots we show our trees in are expected to receive proper attention to assure that they compliment the tree and show the same care and attention that we put into making the tree ready for show. Pots which sit outside all year get splashed with rain, water and dust. The outside of the pots can build up a white lime coating from leached minerals in our water. There are several ways to look at the task ahead... read more »
