Guest Speaker: Neil Auwarter
Topic: Japanese Friendship Garden

​Neil takes us on a tour of the Bonsai collection in the Japanese Friendship Garden at Balboa Park. This is a collection of trees maintained by the Sand Diego Bonsai Club where Neil serves as curator with his team of volunteers. You may begin his presentation as a tourist, but be prepared to learn a few things as Neil gets into the details of bonsai horticulture and this fine collection of bonsai.

​My Favorite Tree

Part of the fun that comes with joining the San Diego Bonsai Club is the chance show your trees to other enthusiastic members. To help do that, we are putting your trees in this virtual display. Send in a picture and short story for your tree and we will collect them here. NO PRESSURE. This is not your best tree or your worst tree, necessarily, just your current favorite. Looking forward to seeing your tree.
