Richard Salvado, from the Bonsai Society of Victoria, made a welcome return to Bonsai Northwest to talk about the creation and care of mini bonsai.

Richard with the minis he created on the night A lanky crabapple

Flower buds aplenty A BIG trim for a little tree

Into the appropriate pot - 5 cm tall Some trees from the display table - just coming into leaf

Another great crowd Elm group from the display table

Same group A large juniper with many jins

The tree is about 80cm long A good start for an elm group

Crazy Filbert clump style A Juniper showing good blue colours

An Akebia (sp?) Note the flowers at arrow. First flowers in 30 years as a bonsai Flower detail

Display trees Richard operated on this Kingsville Box

Smaller and more 'tree like' Size comparison? Next to a tiny mobile phone

More trees from Richard Bark detail on the Kingsville Box

Richard worked on a 10 year old black pine Here it is potted and next to a ping pong ball

Of course there's many questions to be answered Richard proudly wears our badge! Thanks for a great night Richard.
