Somerset Bonsai Society Annual Show
Willowbrook Garden Centre,West Buckland Road, West Buckland, Nr Wellington, Somerset. TA21 9HX.
This year was the first year that we were holding our Annual Show at Willowbrook Garden Centre near Wellington under the banner of The Somerset Bonsai Society. It was felt that with the growing interest in bonsai throughout the County that a name change was due.One thing that we pride ourselves on is that our Annual Show always includes trees from our most recent newcomer members who are just starting along the path of bonsai upto the treasured specimen trees of the 'old hands ' of the Society.
Those same Old Hand were available at the show giving demonstrations and helping members of the public with their sad and sickly trees which were brought along for a bit of Bonsai Rescue.and as with most years recruiting a few new members which is always and important part of our show. At the time of writing it seems we are being blessed with some fine Somerset sunshine let's hope it sees us through the three days.
