As every year, during the Madonna della Ghiara feast , the Giareda arrives on time, national rendezvous of bonsai , suiseki and kusamono.
The tested experience of “The Elen Bonsai Club”, the magnificent organization of the exhibition and the desire (almost an abstinence after the summer rest) assemble in Reggio Emilia a good part of the Italian lovers and not.
Unlikely in other exhibitions ten bonsaists find themselves to work simultaneously wonderful plant exemplars.
The passion and the skill of Mr. Enrico Savini with his pupils of Future Project, vitalize the two days contest. |

This year , in addition to the simultaneous workshop of 10 clubs, there was also the attendance of Mrs. Silvia Orsi with her books and her passion in spreading the increasing mania of accompanying plants , kusamono and herbs in pots.

|
Another appointment has been the exhibition concerning us , of suiseki.
In consideration of the proximity with the AIAS congress it has been somewhat snobed by the great winners of the previous years . All even though , 20 stones were in contest.
Priceless the attendance for two days of Mrs. Luciana Queirolo who although the long libations has made her utmost in long explanations, discussions and finally in the final judgement.

|
The reporter for one day Ulisse , together to other AIAS members attending , have made as much as possible to advertise our art. The most inexpert public remained enchanted by the natural shapes of displayed stones. We hope that someone of them can become fond.
At right , the tableful ready to grant and satisfy all numerous participants .

|
|
|
As by custom , there has been a final verdict and an awarding. At the first three places , two AIAS members . Always our member has been the winner of the IBS plaque. |
