[IBC] Florida show
Back from the Florida Bonsai Society's show. Good job guys!
I was planning to do a Podocarpus workshop, but then I saw how BIG they were, and traded it in on a shohin F. nerifolia/salicifolia workshop with Jim VanLandingham (and Jim Smith assisting). I'd just finished reading Jerry's EXCELLENT book on Ficus and thought I should give it a try. Very nice little tree (pics on the gallery TOMORROW!). The two Jims liked the results. THEN, I found a very nice little F. nerifolia in the vendor's area and got that, too, so I -- the guy who doesn't do indoor trees -- now have two -- three, actually, since Jackie saw a nice little (BRACE YOURSELVES!!!) Serissa and SHE bought that (but I'll probably be responsible for it. :-/ ). I didn't know Serissa had aerial roots (?) but the vendor insisted it was a Serissa. _I_ dunno. I haven't worked up the nerve to take a picture of it yet. Hard to admit I have one on my shelves. Maybe I'll do that tomorrow, too. Also may get a few pics of the display up tomorrow. _I_ liked the display because smaller trees (shohin, not mame) were featured heavily. Anyway, 'twas an enjoyable couple of days.
