Learn Tips for Tending Tiny Trees at Chicago Botanic Garden

Annual Mid-America Bonsai Show & Sale features a display of more than 200 trees from competitors vying for ribbons and a place in the national show in Rochester, New York. The exhibitors have been working with bonsai for five to 40 years and several will be at the garden during the show.

“They’re happy to answer questions about trees,” said Cat Nelson, president of the Midwest Bonsai Society.

If you’re interested in trying to grow bonsai yourself, Nelson said that the show is a great place to start. The event includes free demonstrations and lectures at 2 p.m. Friday and 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. Even kids can learn about the Japanese art form at $10 workshops from 1-4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.

More than a dozen vendors will be on hand selling trees, pots, tools and supplies.

 “There’s a lot of poor quality bonsai on the market but all the stock we have here is healthy,” Nelson said. “A lot of people buy grocery store bonsai and they die immediately. If you get something that’s healthy to begin with, it will live longer, which will help people learn more about the art.”

The Mid-America Bonsai Show & Sale runs from noon to 5 p.m. Friday and 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. Admission is free.

"I love Publix! It's always clean and brightly lit. It's organized. I don't ever feel like I'm getting ripped off, and I love that I don't need some kind of membership card to get a fair price. The employees are always super helpful and seem to enjoy being at work. I never wait in a check out line with more than one person before they quickly open another lane. And they have a good selection of organics and healthy choices. [It's also] neatly organized, so I can find what they have easily. There are enough Publix around that I can always find one, too. Go, Publix!" "You can never beat ShopRite prices anywhere else in Northern New Jersey. Stop&Shop prices [are] way too high! Acme [has] bad meat, plus super-high prices. Pathmark is about as good as ShopRite, but ShopRite has their Can-Can sale, which I always stock up on all canned foods. You can never beat their prices. Never! [I] cannot wait until the new ShopRite [opens] in Bayonne. I hope [it] is as big or bigger than the one in Harrison, N.J." "I love Meijer! I have been shopping (or going) there for over 40 years. Their chain has really grown over the years and has kept up with the times with clean stores, great food and produce with decent prices and good sales regularly. I started with them in the lower central Michigan area and they have grown to include northern Indiana and parts of Ohio. It was started in the Grand Rapids, Michigan area by Fredrick Meijer and he has given a lot back to the communities. He has long since passed on*, but his endowments, scholarships, gardens, parks and recreation areas live on forever. Good food store chain!" "I HATE Acme markets! They are ALWAYS higher than their competitors down the street, and seem to not even care! Especially the one in Hockessin, Delaware. They seem to think that since the majority of the population is mid-to-upper income, they can just charge whatever they want!
