President’s Message
The good news is that the Cherry Blossom Festival came off with great support. We had a nice selection of bonsai trees to display and talk about to the general public.
JT’s Tree Tips
The days are longer and warmer, and the sun angle has been sneaking up on us, so we need to get into watering mode now, in earnest, as the growing season is in full swing.
Jonas Dupuich and the Makishima Auction
Before we get to the meat and potatoes of this month’s Editor’s Notes, I just want to remind all of us that the Cherry Blossom show is happening this weekend!
President’s Message
For the month of April, our club will be entertained by our own Mehrdad Chavosh who creates realistic carvings on bonsai trees. Also, the annual Cherry Blossom Festival in Cupertino will be taking place this April 30th and May 1st.
Bonsai, Music, and Deadwood
A day of bonsai leads to a journey through Japanese music, cinema, and culture. So many reasons to attend the Cherry Blossom Festival later this month.
President’s Message
March is the month when a bonsai hobbyist starts to see their bonsai trees become more active with swelling buds and new leaves starting to appear.
JT’s Tree Tips
What started out in December as a good rain year dried up fast these last two months. Warm days and no rain means you really have to watch your trees as the buds and shoots are pushing on many trees.
Bjorn And the Pacific Bonsai Expo
A lot of events to keep an eye out for, including many Midori Programs and a special 3 club joint event featuring Bjorn Bjorholm.
President’s Message
Our first Thursday meeting in February will be presented by John Thompson. He’ll be covering all aspects of repotting for this important, timely procedure.
JT’s Tree Tips
Back to our Dry Cycle. Hope we get another atmospheric river this month. We could use it.

President’s Message
We have so much to be thankful for at this holiday season. Thankfully, we have our bonsai hobby and trees to take us outside and keep us more diversified and balanced
JT’S Tree Tips
Transplanting is the perfect bonsai activity for kicking off the year. Start it now and you will have healthier and happier trees with fewer problems throughout the year.
