Busy, Busy

I have recently been informed that the Garden Centre where I rent some space for my business will not re-open in the New Year (another small, local business falls victim to the recession).
So I spent the last couple of days before Christmas moving my Bonsai, pots and other stock to my house for the interim.  Not an easy task, as I had to dismantle the Greenhouse and move somewhere in the region of 250 Bonsai plus raw material and starter plants, as well as 2 van loads of pots, tools and sundries.
Mail order will run as normal, but anyone wanting to see a tree will have to make an appointment for the time being.
So now I am on the lookout for a new place to work from, and then it all in reverse.
At least I won't be bored in January and February ;)

Merry Christmas

Stolen Bonsai-Bristol UK


Yesterday this Blackthorn bonsai was stolen from a collection near Bristol, south west.
A full description of the tree can be found at http://snsyamadori.co.uk/blackthorn then scroll down to Blackthorn 5.
Please be on the look out for this bonsai.
There is a healthy reward for anyone who can give any information which leads to the return of the tree.
