No registration required (all ages) The translation of bonsai simply means pot or tray planted. However, bonsai is one of the oldest forms of 'living' art as trees and plants are grown in containers and artistically designed for the viewers' enjoyment. This formal display will include over 25 plants, from quite small (under 8 in.) to large (over 24 in.) and potted in specialized ceramic containers. There will be deciduous and evergreen plants representing various genera, plants from different growing environments, as well as natives to our region and the US Rocky Mountains. Join the Bonsai Society of Greater Kansas City as they present their 2024 Summer Bonsai Exhibit in cooperation with the Missouri Department of Conservation. Society members will be on hand to answer questions and will have ongoing work demonstrations. If accommodations are needed, please e-mail the instructor at least one week prior to the program.
