These trees in your first Noelanders post look familiar. Was this in David Benavente's stand, Auk? It feels like the trees he stocks.

Thanks Auk for showing such beautiful bonsai!

This one was weird!

Yeah, they make these artistic trees for flowering and often fruit bearing trees. I am not sure I am a big fn of those, personally.

PS. Cool shirt Auk

Realy nice trees wish I could of been there but south africa is a bit far

Yes it was my first time there, and we are already planning next year> The demos both days was excellent There were some superb trees on display, it took us four hours to do the exhibition. The trees for sale were also excellent, So many different sellers from all over. I bought several trees and some tools, much cheaper than in England. Loved the mini lectures too,
