I visited this bonsai collection in mid-October. Sadly, one whole pavilion was closed, but I got to see some awesome trees in the part that was open. I'm posting a few for your inspiration. On the way home, I also stopped at a bonsai nursery. That was very helpful to me, because I got to see lots of young trees that nonetheless looked like bonsai. I think I'm sometimes overwhelmed by the masterpieces. When I see bonsai that is just starting in life, I realize maybe I can do this after all.

This Japanese white pine sets the stage as you enter.
