The Exposition Bonsai at Neuville-saint-Rémy in Cambrai in France was held on the 16th and 17th April 2016. It had changed venue since the last time we went in 2014 and this venue was a much larger hall with excellent space and lighting to host a bonsai show.
Tonight we had a brilliant talk on pests and diseases by Ray Broughton, who is a horticultural scientist and lecturer with over 30 years experience. It was a very informative evening and here are a few notes from his talk which covered so many areas and although not specifically bonsai there were some very useful tips and helpful ideas for improving the health of your bonsai trees.
