Schley Bonsai Nursery is in DeLand about 45 minutes or so from Daytona Beach but that would be a bit of a drive.

Maybe! It’s only an hr away from where I’m currently at. I’ll give it a try Tuesday

Not bonsai related but we have a nice botanical park that is free to the public in pinellas or there is Marie Selby botanical gardens if you are down by sarasota. Tampa aquarium is a nice day.

@Ming dynasty I was at the famous Pinellas farmer maket two years ago. I saw some nice Desmodium pre bonsai that I regret that I didn't ask how much they were. Definitely would do that the next time am there. Worth checking it out bro.

We stopped by this summer and Jason (the owner) gave us a tour of the nursery and even shared his personal collection with us. Super nice guy. And he ships (we flew).
