@defra i am seriously considering pulling this. In full leaf...and cascading as I prefer. Slips it outside the mame classification. I wish everyone else the best of luck. But feel...I would never be happy with a pruned back Boston Ivy for sake of a contest. That said...I wish to thank you for opening the possibilities to not only myself, but the others. This little tree...has so far been a blast on my bench. And for that...I thank you too.

Sorry to hear of your divorce. I can confirm that even though it's an awful experience life improves afterwards. Hang in there!

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone's progress :)

Well that is a challenging path. I wish you the best on the other side of it. My tree though pulled from the contest...still lives. Love that tree...and owe it to you and your time invested in this contest that make me add it to my bench.

@defra, don't we do a summer update and then a fall update to round out this contest this year? Looking forward to seeing what everyone has accomplished.
