26-28Aug23 Sat-Mon
Wirral Bonsai Main Show
Gordale Garden Centre, High Road, Burton, South Wirral. CH64 8TF.
The Wirral Bonsai Show was held over the three day August Bank Holiday at Gordale Garden Centre on the Wirral. 40+ trees were on display for the general public to enjoy, with a great turn out from the public over the whole weekend.
We were treated to a great variety of trees, classed by the club as conifer and deciduous, all to an amazing standard plus a section of “trees in progress” although it wasn’t easy to see where the distinction was in the show
We also had a trade stand Green Dragon Bonsai selling a great selection of trees and tools, enabling the public to get started with a bonsai of their own once they had wandered around the displays.
Best Deciduous - Common Privet
Best Conifer - Japanese White Pine
Best Chuhin - Acer Palmatum
Best Shohin - Crab Apple
Best Tree/Pot combination - Lonicera Nitida
Innovation Award - Acer Palmatum
Best in Show - Scots Pine
