Description

When we go to a bonsai exhibit it’s hard not to marvel on how beautiful the displays are. But how do they get that way? That information is what our upcoming workshop will provide. This is not a workshop for you to design your tree. We will help you take your tree and get you started on the appropriate display for that tree. To be covered: How do I choose the correct pot for my tree? Feminine / masculine trees and pots What are accents for? Types of accents and placement in the display What stand is right for my tree/pot? Size / color / type Why is moss used? Actually mossing of the tree/pot will be covered in a future workshop What do the items on the evaluation sheet mean?
