Taiwan Bonsai Creators Exhibition 2010 (Number XIII)

Hello forum members. Since 1998, the Taiwan Bonsai Creators Association has held its annual show during the month of june. Only once was the show postponed and celebrated on an alternate date to commemorate the 10th ASPAC last october. Although there are many other exhibits held in Taiwan, this is the time that the professionals get together to display their works. Many times the big bosses (Lao Pan) come to see this show and purchase some of the trees. It is common to see them again in the Hwa Fong exhibit (November), under another name.

Here are some of the exhibits, including some which garnered top prizes:
1. Murraya Paniculata

2. Mao Pu (Celtis Sinensis)

3. Ficus Gibbosa of Mr. Lo Min Hsuan

Note: The native tribes of Taiwan used the branches of this ficus to tie pigs.
