7th Annual Heathrow Show 2016.

The last show of the year for me is the Heathrow Bonsai Show, which took place today at the new, much larger location at Harlington Sports Centre. A huge thank you to Mark and Ming Moreland for all their hard work in once again putting on such a great event!

I showed some trees with Shiten bonsai society. I was very pleased with how our display turned out. Thanks to Les, Steve and Jose!

Steve's stunning maple!

Little & Large; my Cork Bark / Arakawa Maple, next to my mame display.

A superb Itoigawa by Jose, in a favourite pot of mine by Tom Benda. Beautiful composition.

Some wonderful suiseki (viewing stones).

.. and a pot display?!

Yum!

The great Mr Will Baddeley, and assistant Dean in action.

Some great traders .. 

Haha! Is that me in the poster?! .. with my Kiyohime at Ma-ke a couple of years ago.

... including the award winning Mr Pearson of Stone Monkey Ceramics.

.. who kindly donated this superb Great War commemorative pot, which raised I believe over £600 for charity!

Did I mention there was a pot display too?

Congratulations were well earned by Duncan Hield on creating a fabulous tree and winning the UK New Talent contest. Duncan will be representing the UK at the EBA's next year. A great artist and a true gentleman. Best of luck!
