Rocks, though the perfect addition to any bonsai or garden are heavy and bulky to move. In this weekend class we invite you to come, create and design a boulder, waterfall, lantern, stone slab for forest or whatever your imagination can dream up. These creations are light weight, easy to move and a great natural looking rock for your bonsai, home or garden.
