Satsuki Festival

Satsuki Association have been giving the Satsuki Festival in Tokyo every year and many people visit the festival. Very rare in Japan. Collectible item if you are interested in this great exhibition.

It is one of the few major bonsai exhibitions that is held out-of-doors. The displayed trees are under open shelters. Here one can see the flowering satsuki azaleas at their very best. It is easy to see why these azaleas are so popular.

This festival is organized by the Japan Satsuki Association and is open to hobbyists throughout Japan. In typically Japanese fashion, a beautiful, profusely illustrated photo album is published for each year of the exhibit.
