I'm doing a program on displaying bonsai for our club in April --
just before our yearly show.

While it will include ways to display trees are exhibits and
shows, I want to cover display at the owner's home, or for
special events where one might have just one special display of
tree (and whatever).

I'd enjoy hearing from those of you who have used your trees as
part of some "event" or other. Did you display the tree alone,
with other trees, or with other objects of one kind or another?

Were your displays "Oriental" or a mixture of the Orient (the
bonsai, perhaps) and the Occident (something else?)

Where did your display go? Few western homes have anything
resembling the tokonoma (and I suspect that MOST Japanese homes
are the same, these days). Was it a centerpiece of a table?
Against a wall somewhere? In a corner? Entranceway?

I know Craig has used them in his Church, and Iris has tied her
trees into Judaism. I've brought bonsai into our local Taoist
organization; have others of you done similar things?

Please reveal all. ;-)
