This tree had been presumed dead – for the last 6 months. It arrived from the live tree order service I use with only one leaf, which it promptly lost. So I left it in its bucket with its equally dead peers, lined up in a “failed tree” graveyard on the western side of the greenhouse. And this morning, I noticed this dead tree had put out two leaves. Interesting!
things are not always as they appear.
what a wonderful surprise!!
if i think a woody plant may be dead, I scratch a little spot on the bark. any green and it’s still alive.
