This past weekend the Bay Area Bonsai Associates, affectionately known as BABA, held their 34th annual exhibit at the Lakeside Garden Center in Oakland, CA. The exhibit featured bonsai in formal and informal displays. Most of the formal displays are situated on individual tables that let viewers see trees from three sides. This is great for the large trees that filled these spaces as it makes it easy to appreciate these trees from a variety of angles.
Below are some highlights from the formal displays. More individual trees coming Friday.

Unusual variety of Jasmine in the UK only seen as an indoor pot plant as far as I am aware. Is hardy outside normally only during summer. Love the Wisteria.
As usual show standard is very high.
Thanks for posting looking forward to Friday.
