We have about 15 displays with close to 20 trees. Its pretty small as this is the first club show for most of the planners and attendees. I can post some more pictures once I get better ones.
Our club meeting today will be a get together and review of each owners tree and methods used to grow. Not much extra this go around as we just needed to set the foundation. We will continue to build upon this event annually to include more entries, and other activities.
Earlier in the year we hosted Danny Coffee, and then John G. We also traveled to the Bonsai Learning Center in July for a demo. We also plan on more club meetings including pro demos at Daniel Stowe in 2024. It's a really beautiful location so we are thrilled to have the opportunity and support of DSBG.

Hope to see you and others around.

That’s super cool - I grew up 5 minutes from Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden. Was just down there for a visit a few weeks ago.
