I popped over to a friends house on Saturday with a view to helping him select a tree for entering in Bonsai Europa next Autumn. It was nice to see some of these trees for the first time in Winter image.
This Beech is a monster.
This Acer Campestre or Field Maple isn’t much smaller.
And a little smaller again, this Ulmus Glabra or Wych Elm. Hard to see with the poor backdrop but again, you get the idea.
And last but not least is a Hazel, it’s covered in Catkins for next Spring and even produced 6 Hazelnuts this year past.
Tree selected and plans made. Josh in one of the nicest bonsai people I know but then the rest of us are all oddballs 🙂
MIghty Trees in every respect!

Big show for the club coming up in 2016 Ray. It’s to mark 30 years of our club. Going to see most of these there and a few more he has as well. Worth a wee drive up I think mate 🙂 You can come to Europa too if you like 🙂
