Winter Silhouettes Trip

Picture
Saturday, January 22, 2022

It is once again time for us to visit our friends, Baikoen Bonsai Kenkyukai, and enjoy their annual Winter Silhouettes show, potluck dinner, sale, raffle, and live auction at the Los Angeles Arboretum. Each of the bonsai on exhibit are deciduous and as you may assume from the title, in their leafless winter glory. Some may still have their fall fruit, others may have new spring blossoms. The members of Baikoen are very talented and put on a spectacular show. 

The cost for the trip is $40 for the bus and a dessert to share at the potluck meeting that evening. We will depart from the Balboa Park bus staging area (Navy Hospital lower parking lot) at 11:00AM and the Mira Mesa Park & Ride staging area at 11:30AM. We will return to Mira Mesa by around 10:45 PM and Balboa Park by 11:00PM. 
​
Please bring:
  • Sack lunch or snacks as we will not be stopping for food until the 6PM dinner
  • A dessert to share at the dinner
  • Raffle or auction items to donate
  • Checks, credit cards, or cash to purchase raffle tickets, auction items and for nursery shopping​

"Winter Silhouettes bonsai show at the Los Angeles State and County Arboretum exhibits the best work of California's own bonsai masters. The trees displayed, all deciduous species in their leafless stage, are such perfect miniatures of full-grown trees that they do, indeed, seem to verge on the magical."  -- LA Times
