No I’m referring to Jonas Sandell’s Blog. If you are not following it, you’ll be missing out. Not sure how often he’ll get the chance to post working so hard at Shunkaen, but each post will be enlightening. Click on the image below to visit the blog.

Aside
Again sharing these from Yumiko’s Bonsai Days Blog.
Here is Yumiko’s introduction to the images.
Kubote engei (nursery) is situated in Buzen city of Fukuoka prefecture, they had held their 35th anniversary bonsai exhibition on 25th to 27th October. Most of trees were exhibited at Kokufu-ten in the past and some are even registered as Kityo-bonsai (precious bonsai…kind of best of best ) by Japan Bonsai Association.
The owner of the nursery, Mr.Oza had gathered these treasure trees from here and there. I could imagine his effort and hardness.
At the venue, I asked a staff with hesitating if I could take photos because as you know many big shows in Japan are forbidden to take them. But he easily answered “Certainly yes”. That is a good point of local exhibitions. All photos I took are Kokufu trees. Here we go.

Kyusyu Exhibition
Felt I had to share these photos taken at a recent Exhibition in Kyusyu, Japan. At least I think that’s where it was! I have been allowed to share these from Yumiko’s blog, I presume it’s a local show. Love the cloth colour for the tables, trees really stand out.
Kanagawa Union Bonsai Exhibition – Japan
I have been admiring the shohin displays on one of the Japanese Blogs that I follow. I have been allowed to share these with you here. Taken at the Kanagawa Union Bonsai Exhibition. This is an amateur exhibition with trees from several clubs in the Kanagawa area.
