This worthy old Japanese yew (Taxus cuspidata) from the Pacific Rim Bonsai Collection is one of 248 fine bonsai that are featured in the 3rd U.S. National Bonsai Exhibition Album.
Here are four of the many things to love about the 3rd U.S. National Bonsai Exhibition Album:
1. The bonsai are a notch better than the second album and the second album bonsai are a notch better than the first. This speaks very well for the evolution U.S. & North American bonsai.
2. It has 32 more pages than albums 1 & 2 and yet is the same price.
3. Like the other two albums, it’s a beautiful book.
4. It and the other two albums are available at discounted prices at Stone Lantern
