This summer Patty went to the Seattle Pacific Rim Bonsai garden with a group of volunteers from our local bonsai club. Each year we help the garden perform various chores like cleanup and weed pulling. In exchange they get to tour the exhibit and go behind the scenes into the greenhouses where the rest of the exhibit is housed. This exhibit is world famous and has many donated trees that are very old. Click here to see more of their gallery. http://www.weyerhaeuser.com/aboutus/whereweoperate/bonsaicollection/bonsai/photogallery.asp
This year the curator gave them a special treat after working when he invited them to his home to view his private collection of trees. She said it was truly amazing to see these rare specimens and to visit with the curator at his home. I will do another quick blog to show off the pictures from his private collection.
