Last weekend saw the 2nd Shohin UK exhibition at Failand in Bristol, organised by Mark and Ritta Cooper ably assisted by their band of helpers.<br />
The standard of the trees and displays was excellent and there were a number of traders at the show selling all things shohin related.<br />
There were quite a few Bespoke Bonsai Stands in use at the show, here are some pictures of those stands.<br />

Andy Jordan has kindly allowed me to use some pictures he took of his shohin display at the Noelanders Trophy 2015.<br />
Unfortunately photography by the general public at said event is not allowed anymore so I can't show you any more pictures from the weekend....pity.<br />
<br />
Anyhoo without further ado here are the pics that Andy took of his display, he had commissioned a ji ita and also used a ne taku that he had purchased from me previously.<br />

Andy's display set up for the "official photograph" that will appear in the commemorative book.<br />
<br />
I think this is a great display with good use of direction, seasonality, differing pot shapes and colours <br />

4 of the Ashfield massive travelled to Madrid over the weekend to take in visits to Luis Vallejo's Estudio Bonsai and the 7th National Bonsai Contest MBA 2014.<br />
On the Sunday we drove into the mountains to the Bonsai Garden of David Benavente.<br />
I'll be posting pictures over the next week or so showing trees from each of our stop overs.<br />
<br />
Strap yourselves into your seats for some top quality bonsai porn !<br />
<br />
Before we start a bit of advertising for Matador tapas bar in Madrid, a fantastic small bar, great atmosphere and friendly staff, well worth a visit !!<br />

The British Shohin Association has recently undergone some changes and has been reincarnated as British Shohin Bonsai (BSB)<br />
BSB is an informal appreciation society whose aims are to foster an interest in smaller sizes of<span class="text_exposed_show">

the necessary skills to grow and show this category of bonsai.</span><br />
<span class="text_exposed_show">I've attached a link to the new website below, please pay it a visit I'm sure you'll be pleased you did.</span><br />

I managed to get hold of some proper burr elm recently and I've turned out these slinky little ji ita's.<br />
Ideal for displaying your accent plants on, or the bigger boards will also take a shohin tree, or bronze figurines...whatever floats your boat.<br />

I've been tidying up a few trees today.<br />
All I did with this Azalea was to take off a few of the spent flowers.<br />
I'll tidy up the foliage in a few more weeks after the tree has finished flowering.<br />
<br />
The tree was re-potted in January this year for the Noelanders trophy so I won't be thinking about re-potting for a few years yet.<br />

This is a Quince, dug from the garden of my good friend Geoff.<br />
I'd admired the pictures of the Japanese Quince clumps but couldn't find one for sale anywhere....and I doubt I would have been able to afford one anyway !<br />
I happened to mention to Geoff that I was after one and he told me to come along to his house as he had one in the garden that I could have if I liked it.......4 years later we have today's picture.<br />
<br />
I find the tree very slow to ramify, they just seem to want to expand and get leggy, getting it to back bud with branch buds as opposed to flower buds has been hard but I'm slowly getting there.<br />

Here a some pictures of bonsai, pots, accents etc that took my eye at the recent BSA show up at Willowbog Bonsai nursery.<br />
Whilst the trees are great to see, some of the associated trinkets are also pretty funky.<br />
<br />
My apologies for some of the poor picture quality, and if I quote the owners incorrectly.<br />

Les Storey's Chojubai, whilst the pot looks a little on the large side at this current stage of the bonsai's evolution if you look closely you'll see the stone just about touching each end of the pot.<br />
With a few years growth and fine ramification, oooh mother this will. be a beauty.<br />
I look forward to seeing this one develop over the years.<br />

Myself and Peter Tombs, representing the Ashfield massive, travelled down to Swindon yesterday for the annual Swindon Winter Image show<br />
Congratulations to the organisers of the show, another excellent, well executed show.<br />
It was great to catch up with all our bonsai friends and make new friends.<br />
Here are some pictures from the event, the first few show Bespoke Bonsai Stands in use at the show.<br />
The others are trees or accents that took my eye.<br />
