Bonsai nursery in Chicago?

[Phillthy]

I will be in Chicago, Illinois next week and I wanted to know if there's any local nurseries nearby.

PM me....

If 1% chance comes through....
Maybe I can meet you there!

Buying?

Or observing?

The Botanical garden is good too.
For viewing.

Don't go to THG without $ for a Walter Pall selected Yamadori piece!

@Walter Pall is there still many to chose from?

I can smell the Akadama as I pass everyday, and still can not stop by.
Rats!

Visit Jeff at hidden garden. I'll be there next Saturday for Bonsai around 9am. 100% worth the drive.

Here is Jeff's contact on Facebook
Walter PA hand selected a majority of the great yamadori at the nursery.

As a Chicago native and alumnus of the MidWest Bonsai Society, I cannot tell you how much it warms my heart to hear that bonsai is alive and well in Chicago!

My mother introduced me to bonsai in Chicago... I had no idea such a thing existed and when she took me to a nursery that had a few trees it made a lasting impression. I couldn't have been more than 8 or 9 at the time.
