Swindon Bonsai Society Winter Image Show
Grange Leisure Centre, Grange Drive, Stratton St Margaret, Swindon, Wiltshire. SN3 4JY.
What a great day and another fantastic Swindon Winter Image Bonsai Show. Thank you to all those who made the show from exhibitors, traders, visitors and any everyone involved.
Bonsai Artisan Mr Ryuichi Kitadani video
We were fortunate enough to have a pre-recorded bonsai talk on Knowledge and Skills Sharing that was organised by the Japanese Embassy on behalf of the UK Bonsai Association. The bespoke video was created by the 4th generation bonsai artisan Mr Ryuichi Kitandani in Takamatsu, Japan and it was well received and helpful in sharing information, particularly on Japanese Black Pines.
There was a good selection of traders and most were briskly selling all day. A good turnout and parts of the day were busy around the halls
