Sponsors
The Rocky Mountain Bonsai Society (RMBS) is an organization that:
- promotes public awareness of bonsai in the Rocky Mountain Region;
- helps its members improve their knowledge in the art and science of bonsai; and
- assists its members in the development of personal collections of traditional Japanese style bonsai and plants of regional origin which are suitable for bonsai.
The RMBS meets at 1556 Emerson St on the first Tuesdays of each month at 7:00 PM except in December. Additionally, nine months of the year members get together on the last Saturday of the month to work on their individual trees. See the calendar for more information.
Each year since 1973, RMBS
has hosted a public bonsai exhibition at the Denver Botanic Gardens,
normally on Father's Day weekend. The 2009 RMBS bonsai exibit will be
held on October 10th and 11th at the Denver Botanic Gardens.
