At our February club meeting we had several newcomers. One of them said his wife called him a "tree addict", and then 2 more said they had a "tree problem ". At that point a past president said, "This is beginning to sound like a 12-step meeting!"

Purchased a 112 Liter bag of perlite at pretty great price 39.99CAD , after having sifting through it, I think I'll get roughly 50% in ideal substrate additive.(52% to be more exact)

Is there a Japanese word to express explaining to your spouse that you are going to spend $80 on a bag kanuma and a training pot for your cheap $18 Costco tree?

Japanese pruner. I need to make quick clean cuts on the branches of the trees that I collect. I will report how it does later.

Good craftsmanship. Super sharp. Cut is very clean. SK5 steel is decent for edge retention.

I bought an larch,
pity it’s got the shape of a tuning fork
Maybe it’s too hot here, can’t help it, they look so pretty every time I visit a mountain or some sort of temperate region
Let’s see how it goes
