isnt it amazing to see trees in their different stages in between seasons.

Agree and its not just potted trees that's amazing it all the local trees with all there different times in losing leaves in autumn and buding out in spring like the weeping willow here its the last one to lose its leaves and the first one to bud

i have a weeping willow myself and so far all other trees are showing buds except the willow. i was a little worried at first but a house down the street from me has one in their front yard that has yet to bud. then again i did a major trunk chop because it was to leggy so lets see how it goes.

Just returned from a trip of several months and.. Yes, after putting the suitcase in the kitchen, the second stop was the garden. My wife was all like.. You go outside, I'll make us some coffee.

yes! coffee and a garden are a perfect match. especially on a nice spring morning.
no when you go on vacation that long how do you go about watering your trees. do you have someone water them for you or on a timer. im sure winter makes it easier since they dont need much water.

I left winter to do the work, and my wife was aat home to check every once in a while. But where I live, you do not need to water for most of the time between october to march..However, some of them were in a greenhouse, and I forgot to leave some instructions to my neighbour when my wife eventually joint

And so you've lost some!

well thats a bummer.
ill be going out to Germany in the middle of summer and i guess i will definitely have to leave some instructions for my neighbors because we get some very intense heat around here.
