Avon Bonsai Society Spring Show
Our Show provides an opportunity for members of the public to view our club’s best bonsai trees showcased in our annual show. The trees, from Maples to Pohutukawa and Kowhai to Larch are divided into different styles e.g. group plantings on a slab, root over rock, miniature trees, cascades and native trees and are judged by the last year’s winner. As well as the trees themselves, there are the bonsai pots and stands (both local and from overseas) and companion plants to view.
Our members will be on hand to discuss the merits of the various trees, their age and styling, what type of tree makes the best bonsai and where to obtain the plant material, details of bonsai classes and also provide details of our club. Members of the public will be asked to vote for the tree of their choice. There will also be raffles.
The Show is open to the public from 10.00 a.m. until 5.00 p.m. on Saturday and from 10.00 a.m. until 4.00 p.m. on Sunday.
