Thanks a lot for the info billy. I will get in touch with some of these and try and get some bonsai time in on vacation.

Billy, is the Morikami closure permanent?

I don't know, the web site seems to say it is for renovations. I e mailed with a question about the closure, but have not heard back.
I will inquire of my sources.

Billy

Thanks also to you Hiram sorry I didn't see your post there before.

A member on the Morikami bonsai committee said it has been re-done and will open soon but he wasn’t sure exactly when.
