Bonsai in Wales

April Update from the Organisers

Now things are really happening!

ACCOMMODATION IS BEING BOOKED
We are being asked about the accommodation, and people are booking their rooms at hotels or even camp-sites of their choice to make their stay more enjoyable. Don’t forget to contact Peter by email  -  peter@bonsaiwales.org.uk, or by phone on 02920 707605 for the Bonsai in Wales code word to get the concessionary price at the Holiday Inn Express. Details of all the accommodation are on the web-site and there really is a wide range to choose from.

ONE MONTH LEFT TO RECEIVE PHOTOGRAPHS OF TREES
We are receiving photographs of trees for the selection of exhibits.
We still need more and the closing date is 10th June, which is getting closer, so please get those photographs sent to Peter as soon as possible.

MORE PLANNING
We have had a dress rehearsal for the exhibits in the Coach Hall, and it’s looking good.

We have allocated a space for Kevin’s display of his own spectacular bonsai.

We are arranging three marquees in the courtyard for the Yamadori, the New Talent competition, the demonstration by Alex Evelyn, and also some additional sales.

In the Yamadori Marquee there will be a display of yamadori collected in Wales. The development of bonsai yamadori takes many years and great patience. The various stages the trees are at, and the methods used will be explained and questions answered by the three enthusiasts to whom the collection belongs. The future development will be explained and the techniques to be employed to achieve the required Bonsai talked through by Paul, David and Andrew. Spend some time to study the material. Give your opinion as to how you would develop the material. We think it is the best Hawthorn and Larch yamadori in Wales. If you are interested they may negotiate. It’s also a chance for you to purchase some spectacular Welsh Hawthorn

GETTING DOWN TO DETAIL
We are sending out invitations for the Opening of Bonsai in Wales.

So What Comes Next ?
The actual selection of trees for the exhibition will soon be taking place by Mark & Ritta.
Local advertising will take place to get as many people as possible into the show.
Then we will be planning the detailed layout of exhibits to make sure the exhibition will be of the highest possible standard.
We will be informing everyone of arrangements.
We will continue to plan for your convenience, comfort & enjoyment,

So please   WATCH THIS SPACE …………………………………

2012 will be a memorable year for Bonsai in Wales.
