Bonsai tree

This Nick Lenz pot is being donated by Todd Hansen of Sanctuary Bonsai. It is one of many prizes that will be awarded to entrants in our $1,000 (plus) Bonsai from Scratch Contest. Pot dimensions: 16 1/2″ x 13″ x 2″

Donate and your fame will spread like wild fire

If you donate a prize for our Bonsai from Scratch Contest, your name (and your business name) will be listed with links in the following places (at least two times each): Bonsai Bark (average 1,800 visitors per post) and our Stone Lantern Newsletter (over 8,200 recipients). Please contact me if you are interested: wayne@stonelantern.com.

There’s more

Just to be clear: Stone Lantern is offering $1,000 in gift certificates to the winners. In addition to this, there will be a number of other prizes offered by people like Robert Steven and Todd Hansen (and perhaps you?).

Running out of time

We are still receiving entries to the contest. If you would like to enter, don’t wait. The deadline to submit your final photos of your work is October 15th. This means the photos of your untrained stock plant must be received before that time. The details for entry are here.

For you enjoyment (but not exactly from scratch). This larch is by Nick Lenz (so is the pot at the top of this post). It’s from Candy Shirey’s bonsai collection (apologies to Candy for misspelling her name in a previous post).
