Some commercial break first, We'll be back with the trees later...I need to promote Asian tourism

Two western folks! hehehe....the first time they ate some nasty Asian fruits...



This is Durian...King of all fruits. Smells like shit, and Rob and Nacho said..,. taste like one too...Seems like a bad picture for Ads though!




Lo Min Hsuan (one of the best!) with the white cap . Curse of a bonsai lover- Will not enjoy park attractions but definitely will stop by under an interesting tree, this one is under a huge Chinese Pistachio tree...his winning specie for JAL bonsai competition 1999

Note: some of these photos were taken before the judging, so some trees may have already won but no ribbon yet.

I wish the owner made the pads more realistic and not too straight though.

Wrigthia (large) One of my favorite trees







Wrigthia (large)...Note: simple Mistake in planting the tree an inch lower than the lid of pot...if you view this tree from eye level, you won't see the outstanding nebari. that is why I have to change the photo angle.

I cannot comment on that Dario, this tree is beyond my capability as of my current ability.

Wrigthia (medium)
Another one of my favorite...the style even the slab looks familiar.

Wrigthia (medium)
This is Rob's tree of choice for BCI award.
