National Bonsai and Penjing Collection

[calissa]

A couple of weeks ago, I met some friends out at the National Arboretum. I didn't take many photos, mostly because it's winter and many of the trees are deciduous. However, the grounds also harbour the National Bonsai and Penjing Collection. Despite (or perhaps because of) the grey weather, it was crowded, so I only managed to snag a couple of photos.





The grevillea below was just one of a number of native species that had been grown as bonsai. The paperbark worked particularly well and in some cases had been grown as tiny forests. I will definitely have to go back soon.
