Scott E., 2001 Coordinator, created a magnificant show. There were 55 trees, 33 accent plants and 8 developing bonsai -- all provided by 20 different members. There were 22 tree-sitters and 7 vendors at the outdoor marketplace. Only two or three of the trees were duplicate species, and many had never been in a show before -- showing true diversity of talent and interests in the Bonsai Society of Portland. Some Innovations were: A new layout enabling all trees to be featured equally. Tables of bonsai-in-progress set up outside the Pavilion where demonstrations by club members proved to be very popular with visitors. Sunday morning critique of the show -- a time for sharing new ways of looking at bonsai along with some good food. View individual trees at Tree Gallery		The Tokonoma
