Fresno Bonsai Society Fall Sale and Auction - Nov 18, 2023

[BrianBay9]

The Fresno Bonsai Society will have their Fall Sale and Auction on Saturday, November 18 from 8 am to 2 pm. It will be held at the Clovis Botanical Garden, 945 Clovis Ave.

I have bought some great material at this sale in the past, and I know that the GSBF Clark Bonsai Collection will be putting material up for sale at this one. If you're in the area don't miss this one.

Here are some of the trees (first styling of raw stock) from the Clark Collection that are going in the auction.













And about 10 like these.....

There is at least one oak from the Clark Collection in the sale group. Other oaks (not Clark) will be on sale too. I haven't seen everything the Clark is selling yet, but I can probably get an update next week.
