I am happy and proud to say that more than 90% percent of the trees on display were locally created from raw materials and just a few were bought as imported trees from outside of the country.
...more trees later.

Re: ABFF 2013 in the Philippines
Thanks Jun,
waiting for more pics.
I saw a lot of pemphis, an ignorant question: is pemphis the major species for bonsai overthere?

Re: ABFF 2013 in the Philippines
Marvelous exhibit. I wish we over here would learn to display trees at a more suitable viewing height -- but where did you find so many identical tables???

Me too. I was last in the Philippines in 1953 when I was 14 or 15 years old. Doesn't look like I'm going to make it back there now.

Re: ABFF 2013 in the Philippines
It looks like another great bonsai show Jun.
Thank you for taking the time to post these photos.
I even recognize a few of the trees. Like this one:
![ABFF 2013 in the Philippines Img_0010](https://i.servimg.com/u/f80/13/61/10/14/img_0010.jpg)
Having had the opportunity to see some of these trees in person, I can attest to their quality.
The Manila bonsai community has been very busy the past few months and judging from the photos, all your hard work has paid off.
Have a great day!
Cheers,
Paul

Re: ABFF 2013 in the Philippines
Again thank you guys and gals for the appreciations.
Paul,
Thank you for the photo.
most of the trees you saw including that one you posted belongs to the chairman of PBSI Mr. Bobby Gopiao. His trees were in display (I think) as non competing entries...to be fair with other participants.
Jim,
The tables were pre fabricated for this show, more than 350 pieces. Height is 1.00. Just perfect for eye level display without the bonsai stand/table. As most of the trees in display were huge and most of the time we focus on the tree and pot and not on the bonsai stand and accessories.
