All,
While at the 2007 Carolinas Bonsai Expo, I took pictures of some of the trees on display from the North Carolina Arboretum's Collection. I believe it is formally known as the Staples Collection, named after the family that donated the initial trees to the Arboretum, pushing the Arboretum into the Bonsai Collection business about 15 years ago. You can read more about the Collection at the following web address:

Anyway, here are some of the pictures I took. First is a fairly large Bald Cypress that I liked a lot. I liked the naturalness and feeling of serenity I felt when looking at it.
Regards,
Martin
