Really enjoyed this - I constantly struggle to have sufficient patience with my plants, even when that's what they need most. But I plan to keep practicing! (And thank you so much for including a link to Bulletin of Remarkable Trees!)

Your newsletter is such a highlight on my inbox. Such wonderful lessons! I recently bought a Natal plum (my first bonsai) in honor of a beloved pet who passed away in October and boy if it was a shock to see all its leaves fall off during that adjustment period. I have now learned he needs more frequent watering and after months, he is recovering nicely. He is so strong he deserves his name: Treequi the Mighty!

May your trees grow beautiful and plentiful (all in good time).
