Swindon Winter Image Show 2011

 I displayed my Ilex Serrata as part of our Ashfield Bonsai Club display at the 2011 Swindon Winter Image show.
This really is a show that you must get to see.

I bidded for and won this from a Japanese dealer on e bay.

Mark & Ritta Coopers superb Pyracantha

This is a picture of Mark & Ritta's Pyracantha from the BOBB 2011 show.
I had taken along this Oak root stand for them to look at, so we decided to try it out for size.
It's possibly a tad too small for the tree, but made a nice image all the same.

Oak root stand

My most recent stand.
This picture shows the starting material and finished root stand.


SOLD

 Close up of the finished stand before staining.

 Used to display my Potentilla at our club show this month.
