Jenna and I went out today to get a cable for her playstation. On the way home we stopped by Lowes and I looked at plants and I came home with plants. I picked up a small jade tree, a Loropetalum, and an Asian jasmin (Thrachelospermum). All will become mame bonsai, except the Loropetalum which may become three mame. The pots are going to cost more than the plants which is kinda funny when you think about it.
Lily love, I almost bought a wisteria that was trained on a trellis. The trunk was a good inch in diameter already. You would have liked it.

Thank you, Beth, I'll revisit and look more closely at the plants that you've just purchased. Sounds like a nice trip you've made.
