We visited the National Bonsai & Penjing Museum at the National Arboretum, reputed to hold one of the finest collections of miniature masterpieces in North America, with bonsai originating from Japan and penjing from China. For a description of penjing, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penjing

I don’t want to bore people with countless pictures of bonsai so will try to intersperse with other images taken that day, and just post the ones I found most interesting.
