June Meeting

Back To The Basics with Sandy Planting
& Azaleas with Jim Ransohoff

7:00

Continuing her lessons on how to control plant growth during late spring and early summer, Sandy Planting will concentrate this month on techniques for Japanese black, red, corticata (aka Corkbark), and five needle pines as well as junipers.

8:00

Jim Ransohoff, whose beautiful azaleas we have greatly enjoyed seeing on our show-and- tell table over the years, will present a program on the latest methods for growing azalea bonsai, especially those developed from satsuki azaleas. Jim is just finishing a two year course with Tatemori Gondo, the leading satsuki expert from Japan. Mr. Gondo concentrates on producing bonsai that are beautiful both in and out of bloom. All of us who appreciate satsukis will enjoy and profit from Jim's presentation. If you have azaleas that you would like Jim to advise you about, either aesthetically or horticulturally, please bring them to the meeting.
