This is Ben, he’s a little barmy! He must be to join the committee :-) He’s the one doing the Hip Hop pose :-)
I asked at the meeting for members to share a few of their photos for the site. Ben, obviously looking to make a good impression, sent me some photos of the Japanese Black Pine that he worked on last week. The tree has great sentimental value to him as the tree used to belong to his Grandfather.

He also sent us this older photo of a Berberis Clump that he collected from a garden.
This is the tree in 2011
Welcome aboard Ben, and don’t let my abuse stop you from sharing more photos :-)
