CLUB AUCTION / RAFFLE FUNDRAISER: Saturday, May 12, Mother’s Day Weekend

Our annual auction and raffle is coming up on Mother’s Day weekend.  You won’t want to miss this opportunity to expand your collection or to give someone else an opportunity to take your creation to the next level by selling your trees.  All members are asked to bring in bonsai related items for the Auction/Raffle as we have done for several years.  Trees, pots, slabs, tools, books, magazines, companion plants, artwork are all acceptable things to bring.

We will be expanding our auction this year so that each member may bring in as many bonsai items as you like.  Items for the auction must have a minimum value of $35 and be bonsai related.  Items below $35 will be used for the raffle.

We have no time limit on the room this year, so no rush at the end.

We always have a great time at the Auction/ Raffle.  You never know what will show up at this event.  You are sure to see something you will want for your collection and much at bargain prices.    Hope you can make it.

Thumb Pot Class

If you were unfortunate to have missed the thumb pot class taught by Bill Weber, here are a couple of pics to make you remember next time!

 

 

Field Trip to The Texas State Bonsai Exhibit

Chuck and Pat Ware are long time bonsai enthusiasts who are wellknown in the Lone Star Bonsai Federation. Chuck has given several lectures to the FWBS and around the state, and Pat has been treasurer for the LSBF for many years. Years ago they established a bonsai nursery in Wimberley, TX. (just west of San Marcos). Along with the nursery they also developed and now maintain the Central Texas Bonsai Exhibit.

Mark Bynum viewed the collection in January of this year and they told him that the whole place looks better in May and June. They have pre-bonsai material for sale as well as tools, pots, and supplies.
Mark proposes for the FWBS and guests to journey to Wimberley on a day trip to view the Exhibit and talk with Chuck and Pat on Saturday, May 26, Memorial Day weekend. We could carpool or it has been suggested to rent a
van. The trip will take all day and into the night. Get with Mark if you may be interested.

FWBS Auction / Raffle

Watch our calendar on this site for upcoming events.  Of note, please plan to attend our annual auction and raffle to be held on May 12 at the Botanical Gardens.  Last year there were some amazing specimens that changed hands.  Maybe this is your year to come home with a treasure.

I know for me, a rank amateur, the opportunity to acquire more mature material helps my growth in bonsai.
