FROM THE PREZ
Hello Central Florida Bonsai! I hope everyone is doing well. The club is moving forward and we hope you can join us in an upcoming meeting. We had an awesome first meeting presented by our own Paul Pikel on “The Basics of Bonsai Design”. It provided great reminders to vets and excellent information for newbies on the basic principals of bonsai design and horticulture. Two weeks later, the club had an in person workshop day of bonsai and fellowship at Agresta Gardens with Ben’s Church of Bonsai. Thank you to both gentlemen for your great teaching and hospitality.
Our next meeting is October 9 at 7pm and is a Bougie demo presented by Ben Agresta. This meeting will have 2 ways for you to attend. One will be online through Zoom using the information below, or through live attendance at Agresta Gardens. The topics we will cover will be how bougies grow, proper fertilization, styling and health considerations of the tree.
Please remember in this meeting we will be taking a vote on the proposed temporary changes to dues and fees based on this year’s health constraints.
As a reminder, we are responsible for one day of the silent auction at the BSF convention next year. Adam has more than adequate space at his nursery in the BSF section to start collecting live plant auction items whenever you want to start dropping them off. The sooner the better!
The theme of the convention next year is Literati. If you have a tree that you would like to be considered as the official club tree, please let us know. We will let you know soon which meeting we will hold a vote.
