Summer 2016 Japanese Black Pine and broadleaf Continuing Bonsai Classes

The Japanese Black Pine/juniper and broadleaf Continuing Bonsai Classes/Seminars workshop was conducted by Lawrence LeClaire and Joe Day June 4 at Waddill Outdoor Educational Center, Baton Rouge, LA.  The class/workshops were divided into two sections, pines and broadleaf bonsai with morning classes and afternoon classes to enable everyone to participate in both pines and broadleaf bonsai workshops. 

Joe Day started with a general lecture on broadleaf bonsai before starting detail instructions in the workshop.  Next, Lawrence LeClaire gave a general lecture what needed to be done to the pines and how it should be done.

Then Joe and Lawrence started instructing each participant on what should be done on their bonsai.  After lunch and everyone was finished with work on their bonsai, raffle tickets were drawn to give away bonsai items donated by Joe, Lawrence, and other workshop participants.  Lawrence said he was pleased with progress in development to the pine bonsai in the workshop.
