OK, last bump on this event. Coming up Saturday, 8 am to 2 pm. Here are some better pics of some of the Clark Collection sales material. As usual, apologies for my modest photo skills.

California junipers:

Others:





Nice big oak, but needs some love. If it were mine I would restyle to make the top sweep downward and curve. Base needs lower planting or ground layer.


Atlas cedar



Also more junipers, low priced smaller material, a big-ish lavender colored wisteria. Also lots of Fresno club members with material for sale. Hope to see some of you there.

@BrianBay9 it seems gonna rain on Saturday at Fresno, any plans on this or they will have covers in the area?

 

[BrianBay9]

Most of us will be bringing pop-up shelters. Not sure how much permanent cover is at that site.

I was at this event 7 years ago. How time flies!

Had some rain, but not too much. Crowds were OK most of the day. Good bargains in the auction. Most of the itoigawas sold for $250 (minimum bid), one for $600. Most of the big boxed Sierra junipers went for minimum bid too ($500), one for $1,000. They were a steal for that money.

I was going to ask for some pics but no need to torture me...

My pics from the day kinda suck. But here they are. It rained on and off, but we did have a pretty large shelter to use. Many of us had pop up covers as well.
