Lessons on growing bonsai as a beginner in the South
"What I like about bonsai is that it has a beginning but no end. A bud today becomes a branch tomorrow. --John Y. Naka
Louisiana Day of Bonsai Hosted by Bonsai Northshore
This was really one of my first real visits to a local bonsai show and I must say it was excellent. I really enjoyed talking to the people and seeing all the great trees at the show. Guy Guidry is a great artist, but more importantly, he’s a hospitable person. He welcomed everyone into his backyard and asked them to stay as long as they wished. There were several bonsai workshops, including one working on a monstrous bald cypress where his nephew and son were wiring for a few hours. I managed to take some pictures, but unfortunately, my camera died really early in the day. I did get some video of the bonsai competitions, but I haven’t been able to edit it yet. His nursery was really spectacular and I thought the prices were reasonable. Here’s a gallery of the bonsai trees that I did manage to get. These were on display for judging by everyone that attended. The kingsville boxwood won.
