Speaker - Caroline "Caz" Scott - May 2025
Many thanks to Caroline "Caz" Scott for what can only be described as a thoroughly engrossing talk on pines and junipers. Rarely is the room so quiet such was the interest in what Caz had to say. Caz brought several of her amazing specimen trees to illustrate various points from her narrative, and also took time out to do a 'kindly' critique on members' trees.
As one of our long term members said, "this was the best talk we have ever had".
Tree Critique - April 2025
Members were invited to bring in their "problem trees" and Jim, our president, used his experience and knowledge to suggest how the trees could be improved. This developed into a discussion and a worthwhile evening.
As usual, each member displayed a tree, (see below) which was discussed.
Members Workshop - March 2025
Our busiest members workshop ever. Members brought along their trees to work on. Seek and gave advice where wanted and had the opportunity to have a chat and a cup of tea. These are the main reasons for joining Northamptonshire Bonsai Society.
Come along to any meeting and see what we do and how friendly we are.
As usual, each member displayed a tree, (see below) which was discussed.
Re-Potting & Soil talk by Steve Brown - February 2025
Steve gave a very interesting talk about re-potting and soil which promoted some interesting discussions (It always does when talking about soil !). I was so engrossed I forgot to take a photo, so used one from a talk Steve did at another club.
As usual, each member displayed a tree, (see below) which was discussed.
