Talk by David Cheshire - October 2024

We were treated to an excellent talk by David Cheshire. He explained in amazing detail how to manage, propagate, feed, water a variety of bonsai species. With each explantion he passed an example around the audience. David also explained how he grows bonsai for sale at his nursery. We agreed it was one of the best talks we had enjoyed for a long time. www.davidcheshirenurseries.co.uk

Alex Rudd - Bonsai Pots
& Member's Trees - August 2024
​
If you have an interest in bonsai pots and how they can best be used to enhance your tree, Alex Rudd (Mai Bonsai) of the European Bonsai Potter Collective is the man to speak to. He gave an excellent presentation to NBS last night covering every conceivable aspect of relevant features of bonsai containers from what type of clay they are made of to the finest detail on the high quality painted pots he brought to show us. As a bonus he also brought some sale stock to tempt our members.
As usual members displayed some trees which were discussed during the meeting.
