Baikoen Bonsai Kenkyukai
​61st Annual
​Winter Silhouette Exhibition
Bus Trip
​Saturday January 18, 2025

We have chartered a bus for our trip to the Baikoen Bonsai Kenkyukai 61st Annual Winter Silhouettes Exhibition.  The Exhibition is held at the Los Angeles Arboretum and is a fabulous display of deciduous trees in their winter leafless form.  Some will have flowers or fruit, and it's always a great way to study the structure of these beautiful bonsai trees.  There will vendors on hand for some fun shopping.  We have been invited to attend the reception dinner, enjoy the entertainment, and participate in the live auction and raffle.      

Please bring along a dessert to share at the dinner and something to donate to the raffle.  

We will have a stop along the way at another nursery/garden.  That destination will be announced soon.  

The bus trip is open to SDBC members and guests and the cost per person is $40.
