Accents and Bronzes
Here are a selection of the wonderful accents and bronzes today at the Shohin UK II Exhibition at Failands Village Hall near Bristol.
Broadleaves @ Shohin UK II Exhibition
The range of broadleaved trees at the Shohin UK II Exhibition 2015 was broad and diverse and the quality of the trees was excellent. Species ranging from Potentilla, through to Berbers, Gardenia, Zelkova, Chinese Elm, Privet and Quince to name a few.
Sho Ryu Kai Show Shohin & Mame
This show was great. If you like shohin and smaller, you would have loved this show. Sho Ryu Kai is a well established, talented group – as part of Lodder’s open weekend they put on a display and demonstrated just how good the Netherlands bonsai scene is.
Sho Ryu Kai Show
This show was contained within the Lodders open day, an opportunity for members Sho Ryu Kai group to display their trees. This happens usually twice a year, once in late winter/early spring and the later in the autumn. The group has some very knowledagble members with some beautiful specimens of all sizes of tree.
Evergreens @ Shohin UK II Exhibition
There was a good selection of evergreen bonsai at the Shohin UK II Exhibition 2015 from Junipers through to Black and Red Pines plus Hinoki cypress, Yew and Larch which technically is a deciduous conifer but I have added it into this set anyway.
Shohin UK II Exhibition 2015
The Shohin UK II Exhibition did not dissappoint, it was great to see so many wonderful Shohin, Chuhin and a few Mame on display and there were also some beautiful stands, particularly the root stands as well as some brightly coloured and ornate pots too.
