ANNUAL BONSAI SHOW COMING TO
CLEVELAND-ROCKEFELLER PARK GREENHOUSE

The Cleveland Bonsai Club presents the Cleveland-Rockefeller Park Greenhouse
Bonsai Show 2008 to be held at the Rockefeller Park Gardens & Greenhouse, 750
East 88th Street, Cleveland Ohio, on Saturday, June 7 and Sunday, June 8. Show
hours are from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. each day. Admission and parking are free.

Bonsai is the art of dwarfing trees or plants and developing them into an
aesthetically appealing shape by growing, pruning and training them in containers
according to prescribed techniques. "This is a rare opportunity for Clevelanders to
see a very large display of very small plants," explained Carole Roske,
spokesperson for the Club. "If you’ve ever wondered what Bonsai is all about, The
Cleveland Bonsai Club annual show and sale is the ideal opportunity to learn
about and enjoy this fascinating ancient art."

Attendees will stroll through a world-class exhibit of bonsai trees and learn that
bonsai is not a specific type of tree, but is the satisfying, exquisite result of working
with ordinary outdoor and nursery stock to achieve trees with a look of great age
and dignity. In addition to the bonsai exhibit, the show will feature a bonsai sale
plus a vendor area featuring bonsai, pre-bonsai, plants, tools and supplies.

Cleveland Bonsai Club Show is being held at one of Cleveland’s little known
treasures, the Cleveland Rockefeller Park Greenhouse, conveniently located off
Martin Luther King Boulevard…near I-90. Along with many exciting indoor gardens
and exhibits, the Greenhouse features four acres of elegant gardens; The
Japanese Gardens, the Peace Garden, the Betty Ott Talking Garden and the Latin
American Garden.

Admission is FREE. Show hours are Saturday and Sunday, June 7th and 8th from
10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. each day. Parking is free. For further information contact
