Columbus Bonsai Society Annual Show

The beauty of trees in their summer glory will be a high point of the annual Columbus Bonsai Society‘s annual show. The Bonsai Society is an educational and social organization for those interested in the classic Japanese form of horticulture, and presents a show each year as a means of educating the public about the art form.

This edition of the annual event will take place at the Franklin Park Conservatory & Botanical Garden.

During the two day event club members will display many examples of the miniature trees they have patiently trained and nurtured. Workshops and demonstrations will take place during the show, so participants can get a hands on feel for what is involved in creating a bonsai. Three vendors will be on site and offering a wide range of plant stock, pottery and tools needed for bonsai work.

A demonstration of bonsai care & styling techniques will be given at 1:00PM on each day of the show. This presentation is open to all and suitable for all audiences-no special knowledge needed. Questions from the audience are welcome.
