I spend several hours per day in that frustration....no joke, you ain't lying.
I just crank up some Dead and try to not let the idiots of the road get to me.

I lived in NOVA my whole life until 2004. I was glad to leave.

Yeah that's basically the only reason I never leave Richmond heading north

Man........from Richmond to Meehan's will be like a 4 to 5 hour ride, BJ's (if it exists) should be about 3 to you! BJ's is about 25 to me I will just drive there to see what's up!

Nah, from me, 522 to 15 get's me to Meehan's in 3 hours. From Richmond, 95 to 17 to 15 is about the same. Stays west of all the congestion.

For everyone who lives in Richmond: go north on 95 until you get to Gardens Unlimited. Thank me after you've drooled on the trees.

There is a bonsai nursery near Norfolk that I need to check out, that's probably only 2 hours from Richmond...

Thanks!!! How have I never heard of this place??? And I don't even have to cross Fredericksburg???
Maybe I have and didn't realize how close they were, I know I've heard of "Bob and Todd"

Sounds like they're only open on Saturday to the public. I'm really only interested in buying pre-bonsai stock, do you know if they sell that kind of stuff or just more refined trees?

They're pretty much always open so long as you give them a call. Weekends are typically best though. They don't have any stock really, mostly just well refined trees, but they're really worth checking out. Bob and Todd are great guys, you'll love their collection.

I WOULD NOT JUST SHOW UP ON SATURDAY. call them first, or you could be disappointed and met with locked gates. They work a lot of garden jobs between D.C. and tidewater. If you don't call first, you could miss them. Jumping the fence could result in a visit from the Sheriff.

You can Google the address, use Google satellite imagery, see the house and see the bonsai in the side yard.
I would definitely visit if I lived in the area... but I try to visit every place that has bonsai of any size, shape or form

I would call first and make sure someone is there. Looks like a private residence running a business from their back yard.
Take some pics and let people know your impressions!
