Please Help...

I have been bought what we think is a Japanese Larch.
I have been bought this has a house moving present, but the house move got delayed, and we have lost all the information that the very helpfull gentlemen gave us..

I am now living in Crewe Green in Cheshire, and would like to find out more about bonsai.

Can somebody please let me know of any local clubs to me..

Not all bonsai clubs are affiliated to FOBBS, mine included. Stockport might be a bit far but if 15 miles is within your travelling limit, I would recommend Tarporley :- http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/sherpa/cheshirebonsaisociety/

One note is that larches belong outside, not sure if you knew that.
