Basic Bonsai Techniques

May 7 @ 9:30 am 1:00 pm

There is also one place still available for the same workshop on Saturday 9th April.

$20 The registration fee of $20 covers the cost of the tree, potting mix, grow bags, wire, and morning tea.

An Introductory Workshop Presented by Tony Bywater, Christchurch Bonsai Society

Bonsai is an art form probably started by the Chinese over 2000 years ago, using trees grown in containers or on rocks to represent the beauty and majesty of nature.

Have you ever thought of developing your own Bonsai tree?  Come to this workshop to learn how to do it.  Watch an ordinary nursery tree turned into a Bonsai, then have a go yourself.  Learn what to look for in nursery trees, how to select which branches to keep and which to cut off, how to pot it up and how to look after it.  All good fun, and you get your own Bonsai to take home!  

Places are limited for this popular, hands-on workshop, so register by contacting Ruth Wood as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.

COVID VACCINE PASS MUST BE PRESENTED ON ARRIVAL.
