Does anyone know of any local plant nurseries that have a good selection of bonsai trees?

I have seen a few bonsai at the Asian Festival. Although I am unsure who hosted that exhibit.

Used to be a Bonsai Farm between SA and Seguin. Been years and I've forgotten the name.

I have been the this place in wimberly:

BONSAI IN CENTRAL TEXAS (http://www.wimberley-tx.com/~bonsaijg/ - broken link)

The beautiful drive alone is worth it, but the place is absolutely amazing. Its like a museum of bonsai art. He has minature versions of the redwood forest that retail for over $2,000. I never cosndiered myself a fan of bonsai trees, but was blown away by this place. He is truly an artist with exceptional work.

There is a Bobsai shop in LaVillita. The lady who runs it even babysits plants if you go on an extended vacation and want the plant cared for while your gone.

There's a lady who sometimes sells bonsai on the gas station lot on Vance Jackson and Huebner if my memory is correct.

I thought of this, too. They seem to be available there on a very regular basis.

I've seen them for sale every few weeks at the gas station lot on W. Bitters at Partridge Trail, too.
