Show Report: Bonsai in the Park 15th September 2024

As you know we took down and put on what I thought was an excellent display of trees at the above event last weekend. The big news is that one of our members, Jon Hooper, won the Presidents Prize for best tree with his impressive hemlock. Well done Jon!
It’s a quirky show, put on by South Devon Bonsai Society and spread across all the ground floor rooms of Lupton House, a country estate near Brixham and as usual had displays from various clubs around the South West plus traders selling trees, pots and sundries. There were also demos by Simon Temblett and Peter Evans.
The standard of trees and displays was high and it benefitted from a steady stream of attendees.
