The VNBC club meeting on Tuesday night, 10th June, featured a presentation and demonstration on rock plantings with native species bonsai.
Always an interesting topic for bonsai people, this was a most interesting night of ideas, demonstrations and discussion, with a key feature being a demo by Quentin using a Banksia tree and a large piece of pumice rock.
Quentin’s work was supplemented by Ian discussing a couple of other examples, and looking at a large quartz rock on which he had done some work, and was seeking discussion on his options for planting a bonsai eucalyptus in a cavity he had created on the side of the rock.
A couple of other bonsai planted on or with rock pieces from the display table were also presented at the meeting for discussion.
