SOME LATE SUMMER BONSAI FUN DURING A SMALL WORKSHOP IN MY GARDEN.

Hi everybody,
yesterday I had the privilege to stage a small workshop for 3 members of the Bonsaishop Iss Hogai. Henk Steneker, Rene Bakker and Monique van Ommen had to make a long 2,5 hour trip to my garden, but were welcomed by some lovely sunshine, coffee and warm Dutch apple-flaps! Smile

We started at 10 and only stopped for a very welcome lunch we enjoyed in the sun. Around 5 it was time to stop after a long days work. I had great fun with these tree eager workers and I am sure that we will do this again in the future! Here are some pictures to give you a impression!

Looks like you had fun Hans. Scary stuff with the chainsaw. Looks like the Texas Chainsaw Massacre lol!

Love Henk's juniper.

I don't think it stopped raining here yesterday for a single minute Sad

Exactly so!!!

PS: I'm a little jealous though...., because in Greece we are just starting our bonsai club and have not yet opportunities of this level more often. But we all hope we will advance soon enough to achieve something similar to this! sunny

Nice, but I would rather have abrikozeflappen (apricot-flaps its a kind of pastry). Wink

kind regards
Peter
