-7 point showable shohin display (jbp, azalea, black olive, Chinese quince, shimpaku, zelcova, and trident or kiyo)
oh, and the pots
Ron, if you want to do it "right", drop the azalea! Evidently, in Japan, azalea are taboo in an otherwise traditional bonsai shohin display!
I don't REALLY know why, except for this: In Japan, there are two types of bonsai people... "Azalea bonsai people", and "everything except azalea people"!
Last January, Daisaku Nomoto gave a display class of 7 point shohin using the traditional box stand. Daisaku is an officer of the Nippon Shohin Society (or whatever they call it). Really, really knows his stuff.
Anyway, he was telling us about how to set up the display, and ideally, one of the trees inside the box should be a flowering tree. So, I blurted out, "Like azalea!" Whereupon he gave me a dirty look, and said, "No! No azalea! Anything except azalea!" I laughed and repeated back, "No azalea!" He smiled.
Now, I understand that here in the USA, we like both kinds. So I suppose you could show an azalea with your other trees. But if the judge is Japanese, don't. You could have a separate display of all azalea, and that's fine. Just don't mix them!
